One of the guns I qualified with is a Walther PPK.

The rangemaster wrote PPK/S on the form, and my CCW says PPK/S.

Can I carry my PPK?

Technically, I'd say no, but I have wondered about this same question myself. (Qualify with a LW 1911 commander and want to carry a steel combat commander.) To be safe, you should really address this question in a written format to the state attorney general.

Is it not listed by serial #??

Nowhere in the NRS is there a requirement that the firearm(s) be listed by serial number. The application and the permit must include make, model and caliber, but not the serial number.

If someone wanted to make an issue of it, it could be argued that you are not carrying the correct model, since here may well be a PPK and a PPK/S with the same serial number. Serial numbers are assigned arbitrarily by the manufacturer, and the only real rule in the US is that there can't be the same serial number on multiple copies of the same make and model.

If I were you, I'd get it fixed.

+1

Clark County requires the serial number on the application (not on the CCW permit) because of the stupid-ass Blue Card Registration (confiscation) bullshit.

Fasten your seat belts folks.... long gun registration is coming sooner than you think.

Technically, that is no longer quite true: BATFE has started requiring manufacturers to have unique serial numbers on each firearm. IOW, you cannot get a S&W-made PPK with the same serial number as a S&W-made PPK/S. Of course, mfgs were putting the same number on different models for years, so it could still be a problem.

The serial numbers are moot out here in Free Nevada

Just call your CCW office and inform them of the error. They can fix it right away. At least here in Las Vegas they can.

No crystal ball here.... just 31 years of following local and state politics in Nevada.

Is this going to be a Clark county or state level registration scheme?

I cant wait to get out of Nevada. I once thought after my military service was up I'd stay here and settle down. Not anymore, I've watched this area turn into California more and more with each passing year.
