Can someone explain this?

[Oldschool shooter]

I saw Walther PPKs advertised by Classic Arms today. Brand new .22 caliber stainless. $299. But the .380 is always in the $750 to$800 range. I don't get it.

Cause one is a crap pot metal Umarex gun

The new PPK pistols in .22 are made under license by Umarex. They aren’t made the same as the centerfire PPK offerings.

Stay safe.

I really like my Umarex/Wather PK380. Accurate, locking bolt, descent sights, light rack, exceedingly rare malfunction. But, has a small trigger, a "unique" safety, and is butt ugly
At least only the top half is crap pot metal as the rest is plastic

I've owned a FN/Umarex 502 for a little over a year. No real issues till about 4000 rounds. Then started getting stove pipe jams. Put a new recoil spring in and no more jams. Little over 5000 rounds down range at this time. My favorite plinking pistol

Umarex is fine for rimfire plinking. I was just explaining why they were cheap.
