So I can own lots of guns, but just one Walther... to me, that screams "classics". I can have 'other' guns to fill roles.....if you could only own one Walther pistol, which would you choose.....please, this is a serious question, and I need your true thoughts...thanks in advance for your input..
Just an interesting tidbit - I had some official mail I recently sent out, and the address included a "mail code" (whatever that is) that was PPK32. I immediately thought of the Walther.1) PP/PPK in .32 acp. Classic Bond styling.
I have a P38 that is very accurate and reliable.
I had a TPH which was not reliable.
I used to own a West German PPK/S in 9mmKurtz which was a good all around gun.
I own an original Party Member marked 1930s PPK in 7.65mm which bits my hand.
My PPS-M2 is a good shooting little gun that i have not been able to make malfunction yet. ( 500 rounds without cleaning so far)
I always wanted a Walther P5. It was used by 007 in Octopussy and in Never say Never. I used to work with a guy who had one. It was a VERY nice shooting gun. You never see them anymore and they are worth around $1600 to $1750 on the used market. View attachment 232910
32 was the caliber for that gun.PPK in .380. Now try to find a new one...
Because if I buy one it'll be to carry and I have precisely ZERO confidence in the stopping power of. 32acp.32 was the caliber for that gun.
Why buy a classic gun in the wrong caliber?
You realize almost none of the 380 models were actually built by Walther, right?Because if I buy one it'll be to carry and I have precisely ZERO confidence in the stopping power of. 32acp.
Those are legit Walthers, sold under the Walther name. I used to own a "St Etienne" marked PPK/S.You realize almost none of the 380 models were actually built by Walther, right?
Yeah, but made by others.Those are legit Walthers, sold under the Walther name. I used to own a "St Etienne" marked PPK/S.
Same here. That gun is greatly overrated. Horrible trigger pull.I had a .380 PPK/S. Sold it.
