Sources for Manurhin PP?

[Wade]

Looking to buy one of these little pistols (never should have gotten that C&R license ). I've found them listed at militarygunsupply.com and centerfiresystems.com . Any opinions on these outfits? Any other sources I should check?

As always, thanks in advance for any info/opinions/suggestions.

If I remember correctly, the people who picked theirs up from Centerfire Systems that belong to the C&R e-list were quite happy with the deal.

I picked one up from centerfire and I've been happy with it. I didn't get the best quality one they had but mine's probably 80% finish other then that mechanically it works wonderfully. If you have a C&R getting a Manurhin is a great way to get a PP style pistol.

If that's the model that looks like the ppk I had one and could'nt get rid of it fast enough. It was a .380 and really hurt to shoot. The area between my thumb and index finger would get really sore. I really didn't like that gun.

The PP looks like the PPK but it's just a little larger. Most of the Manhurins I've seen have been chambered in .32acp, feels like nothing with the weight of the gun even for it's size.

The folks at Centerfire Systems are good people to deal with.

Well, I went ahead and ordered one from CenterfireSystems today. Spoke with Lois, who told me that they only have a few left. I'll report in again when my new toy arrives .

Well, the BBT brought my package today. Gun is in pretty good shape-a little blueing wear at the muzzle and on the backstrap, right side grip is cracked (Lois warned me about that; not a problem). Internals look good. I'll probably take it to the range in a day or so, after I give it a good cleaning. All in all, very pleased with it.

Wade,

I picked up one from Lois right before New Years but have yet to even clean it. Did your's come with two mags and a cleaning rod? I was really impressed with the looks of mine. I hope to get it to the range sometime over the long weekend. Make sure you post a range report to tell us how you enjoyed it!

Anyone know if the PPK/S manual applies or is there one specifically for the PP? I want to strip it down and give it a good "how's your father" before firing.

Thanks,

bigjoegood1,

Mine only came with one mag, no cleaning rod. No biggie, though.

I would think that a PPK/S manual would pretty much apply to the PP. After all, a PPK/S is just a PP with a shorter slide, IIRC.

I'll post a range report first chance I get.

CDNN and/or Cheaperthandirt used to sell new mecgar PP/PPK/s mags that are pretty got and inexpensive. The PP and PPK/s use the same mags.
