Is there any film/game that features the P1 (instead of the P38)?

It's virtually impossible to tell the two apart just by looking at them, since the main difference is just the material the frame is made of. So I wouldn't doubt that some are P1s, depending on where the show was filmed. I think a few P4s might have been used, which have a slightly shorter barrel. But it's hard to tell for sure, since it's not that big of a difference. Again this would depend on where it was filmed. As far as games go, all games using the P38 style pistol are WWII games, so they'd be P38s by default. And I don't think anyones going to make a 1960-70s first person shooter about germany, that the Vietnam War era. --Zurak 47 10:05, 25 August 2009 (UTC)

The game No One Lives Forever takes place in the late '60s, some of its levels are set in East Germany and the P38 is used throughout, it appears to be a standard one with wood grips though. --MattyDienhoff 10:08, 3 July 2010 (UTC)
