I own several handguns which I dearly love. My favorite carry gun is a Glock33 .357 Sig or my well proven Kel-Tec P11 9mm.
I recently acquired a Walther PPK/S .380. I have taken the PPK to the range and it ran very well with FMJ rounds. I intend to polish the feed ramp and throat because I have heard and read that PPK's don't feed JHP's very well.
I live in West Central Florida and it's hot 10 months of the year and my Glock and P11 are dual stack mag guns consequently they are rather "blocky" and hard to conceal under a "t"shirt and shorts which is our yearly uniform down here. Which leads me to my question. Is the PPK/S .380 an adequate self defense weapon when loaded with RBCD frangibles or Cor-Bon JHP's?
I've read all the stories about the died in the wool 1911 guys who can conceal there weapons in a thong but for older fat farts like me that would be hard. The PPK/S just tucks in perfectly and I like the gun a lot.
Please don't suggest I go out and buy the gun you think I should have because I'm gun poor as it is.
Comments pro or con will be greatly appreciated. Thanks Y'all.
