This is a late war Walther PP. Late in the war Walther stopped using its' logo on the model PP and PPK. They instead used thier Heerswaffenamt code assigned to them by the Obercommando des Heeres. The code assigned to the Walther firm was "ac". This pistol is marked "ac" indicating as such. However this pistol is mis-matched serial numbers, so therefore value would be much lower. It should have proof markings on it as well. This will either be an "eagle N" or an "eagle 359" or possible even an "eagle C" or "eagle F". The latter 3 of these markings will be located on the frame behind the trigger. The eagle N markings will be located on the right side of the slide, barrel, and frame.

Guns made < 1968 were not required to have a serial number. Unless your friend's father lived in a locality that required it be marked with a serial number & registered (New York? California?), it required neither under federal law.
