Not replaceable with free media because (WP:NFCC#1)	An unknown but extremely limited number exist in circulation. They can only be found in the hands of the company that made them (this image is sourced from a scholar who took an image of one of the surviving examples in the company's inventory) or very wealthy creators, and as such are not accessible to have a picture taken of them.
Minimal use (WP:NFCC#3)	This image with one additional image of the barrel (to show it's highly unique design) will be the only images of the Walther Volkspistole on wikipedia and will be present on the article for the Volkspistoles.
Respect for commercial opportunities (WP:NFCC#2)	The article itself takes a great number of images from many angles, an external view does not provide all of the visual information of the article.
