I have a friend who is need of some funds so he offered me his PPK. Walther make, not sure on the year, 2 mags, leather holster (not sure on the make), and 400rounds. $550.
The guy only buys nice looking guns and is very meticulous about maintenance. I've always kind of wanted one just because. So I am seriously thinking about it. If all else fails based on local pricing I figure I can turn around now and make some money off it if I want. What is the opinion on the pricing? From what I have seen seems like a decent price to me. *Update* I bought the PPK. Turns out it is a PPK/S-1. I know S&W PPKs have reliability issues, but this gun has functioned flawlessly for my friend so I think I'll enjoy it. Question though, the slide is ported, but the barrel is not. I cannot find anything online about ported PPKs. I've seen a few barrels on gunbroker,,but no actually PPKs. Is this a factory job or aftermarket? |

The porting is not factory and there is indeed and extra hole in the frame.
I've had excellent accuracy (for a pocket pistol) and excellent reliability with my S&W PPK/S, but be aware there was a recall on them. Check here to be sure your's is either not affected, or has been fixed: S&W PPK/S, PPK recall |

I just got PPK/S today at the Pawn Shop for $525 out the door with 2mags. This thing is like new and is not affected by the recall. Love it already |
