West German walther ppks..

Im matching what shes asking for it as she just wants to get rid of it. It does have a pretty heavy trigger pull and I DO happen to have big hands but I look forward to shooting it

You'll love it
Many years ago, my dad gave me his, he missed it so much he went and got another one

I sold my 1972 vintage PPK/S a couple of years ago and immediately regretted it. It was a fun shooter and very reliable but the slide will bite you if you're not gripping it properly.

Listen to q, in his explanation
Skyfall: Quoting Q; The Walther PPK/S nine-millimeter short. It's been coded to your palmprint so only you can fire it.

its in at least one previous I'm sure
Oh man, don't make me watch all those again

edit: PPK is his issued sidearm in a number of the bond series, not sure of the caliber of them, but not the ppk/s, only skyfall has the ppk/s (i think)

Apologies, Trip. In Skyfall, you are correct. Bond was indeed armed with a .380 Walther PPK/s before losing it in Macau. However, in almost all of the books and movies his Walther was a PPK chambered in .32 ACP. It was introduced to him by Q Branch at the beginning of the film Dr. No.

i didnt know it was 32 chambered, ive actually never seen a ppk that was not 380

YouTube clip of Dr. No - Bond reluctantly gives up his .25 ACP Beretta for the 7.65mm (.32 ACP) Walther. The switch happens at 1:20. Enjoy!

9mm Kurz means 9mm short
Which means 380

It's the James Bond gun

Actually, Bond used a .32 ACP Pre war PPK with the 90 degree safety sweep. Post war models were developed with a shorter 60 degree sweep.

Ian Fleming's James Bond was forced to upgrade to the .32 acp (as he did in the movies starring Sean Connery). Sometime @ Roger Moore, the film malers made an effort to change calibers of hs Walther to .380, iirc.

Thanks for the info. A friend lost her father and inherited some firearms one of which is the ppks. It has the Alexandria interarms on one side of the slide and whatnot. She wants to sell it and im thinking of buying it

Walther PPk and PPs have been made for a long time in various calibers and some can command very high prices - prewar, Nazi, etc. If yours is the average "Interarms" blued PPks my guess is it can go anywhere from $250.00 to about $500.00 depending on condition, with or without box and state (as in, in CA or outside) and how much of a "friend discount" one gets. I bought mine for about $300.00 a few years back when the Sacramento Armoury was closing down. It's in new shape.

Manhurin made Walthers PP and PPk are C & R eligible. So if you can't get the PPks (which is not C & R eligible yet) there are others available.
