S&W issues recall on PPK/PPKs

I usually only post at the reloading forum but I saw this on a Bersa forum and thought I'd share it here:

Hmmm...that's an interesting issue.

I wonder what causes that.

What a PR disaster.

Those things are made locally, too (in Houlton). I was even planning to get one. Now if I do it would have to be a new one. I've gotten out of .380, but sometimes it would be nice to have a GOOD one for concealed carry/backup.

I haven’t had any trouble with my SW PPK .380, it’s a great shooter. Looks like I gotta send it back though.

Wonder how quick it’ll turn around, and if they’ll send any extras back with to ease the pain.
