I have a P38 that my grandfather brought back from his service in Europe during WWII.

I put about 200 rounds through it to see what it was about/function check it. I really do not plan to shoot it but with the looming bans we may or not be facing I want to pick up a kit that will keep it running if the need arises.

Can anyone direct to a source for what I am looking for?

They have suspended new orders right now, but you might check back.

Cdnninvestments also had Walther parts but have taken their website offline recently as well.

Honestly I don't think you'll have an issue getting parts for your pistol in the future.

Try Wolf springs for a spring kit. What year and manufacturer code is it and is it all matching? You may not want to shoot it if it is all matching or a late war gun. Check on the P 38 forum to get more info.

It is 1943 vintage and all the numbers match.

If you are planning on changing out the recoil springs yourself, I'd suggest reading through this thread:

If you are planning on letting a gunsmith do the tune-up on the pistol, I'd suggest these guys based on their reputation:

It is an "ac".
