Ok, sounds like just the kind of feedback I was looking for. Thanks.

Well, CDNN had them for like $18, but they've been out of stock. I found a site that claims to have them for $12 but the site seems kind of fishy. It's extremely low-tech/plain and there's no number I can call to see if they're in-stock or if I have problems. No address is listed either...

Well S&W's site says they want $40 for one. Is there any source of used police mags?

Seems like these single-stack .40 mags are hard to find. CDNN doesn't have any, and Midway might but they're so darned expensive there. Anyone know where I can find some? It is an outstanding firearm, BTW.

Oh, and someone suggested the Makarov. Nice choice but if you read my posts I mention I already have one in .380, which I like but not nearly as much as the PPK/S. I can't for the life of me figure out why people advocate the Maks so much. It was half the price of the Walther, and frankly...

Powderburn, my new PPK/S just has a lot of class in a classless world of "tactical" (aka cheap-looking) autos. I wish I knew where I could get some lasergrips for the S&W, or even some slick faux mother of pearl grips at least.

Actually I am considering getting another .380 on down the road as I like this one so much. I am going to be buying lots of .380 ammo to have on hand for the PPK, and my wife has a Mak in .380, so it just seems natural to start collecting them. I have kind of fallen in love with the cartridge...

Got the S&W Walther PPK/S and couldn't be happier. I like the looks much better but it was the all-stainless construction that got me. NO hammer bite on the new Walthers BTW, the tang has been re-desighed. Workmanship is first-rate and the gun is beautiful, a work of art in my eyes. NO...

Don't know about you guys, but ... ... but the size of the gun as it relates to my hand size seems to affect me alot. For example, I have small hands, so the smaller 9mm's often have smaller grip frames which just fit me better and I can control the recoil of follow-ups. A Kahr K9 doesn't...

Just curious, How many rounds through your Bersa's? How many rounds do you guys think the Bersa will last? How's Bersa customer service?

Thanks Soutpawshooter for not making me do a search. Frankly, I have better things to do than sit on here all day, and besides, I was hoping for the most up-to-date thinking on the matter, which you provided. About 15 ears ago I had a Bersa .380 which I got rid of due to occasional jamming...

Hi guys, just looking for a small CCW piece and it seems like a .380 is not too shabby based on the Marshall?Sanow stopping power statistics. Anyway, the smallest guns I've found are the Walther and the Bersa, but on another post someone was having some reliability problems with his Bersa...
