Walther PPK/S .38

Walther PPK/S .38. PPK was among the first commercially successful double-action/single-action pistols. It had several mechanical and aesthetic design elements that were copied and reused for decades, both by Walther and their competitors. … But it’s also a bit larger than what they used to call a vest pocket pistol; Walther created one of the world’s first concealed carry handguns when it produced the PPK over 80 years ago. Since then the PPK has become a cultural icon, it has been featured in spy movies and is highly sought after by collectors. Walther continues the legacy of the PPK with the production of the PPK/s, and remains an excellent choice for everyday and concealed carry despite the age of the design. It’s chambered in .380 ACP, a round well suited for concealed carry thanks to its small size and low recoil. The Walther PPK/s also features a double-action/single-action trigger, and activating the safety will de-cock the weapon. In addition, this PPK/s comes equipped with checkered walnut grips to provide a solid, ergonomic grasp on the handgun as well as a sophisticated appearance.The Walther® PPK/S® Semi-Auto Pistol has been a premier concealed carry pistol since before WWII, based on its sleek concealability and its ability to function flawlessly under all conditions. The PPK/S operates with a simple blowback action, an exposed hammer, a manual safety, and a single- double-action trigger. The frame, slide, and most parts are made of stainless steel. The top of the slide features wave cuts to reduce glare; and the pistol comes with low-profile fixed sights, which interfere minimally when drawing the weapon from a holster or purse. The slide is serrated for a non-slip hold when loading or clearing the weapon. The ergonomic grip frame features checkered composite grip panels; and an extended beavertail allows a high hold without worrying about hammer bite. The magazine release is easily reached with the shooter’s thumb, and an internal slide stop prevents external snags. The Walther PPK/S Semi-Auto Pistol fieldstrips easily into 4 sub-units for cleaning and maintenance. Ships with one extended 7-round magazine.
