Any Walther PK380 feedback?

[kurtb]

I was looking at one today. Has anyone used one? Is it good ... bad ...? thx

i'd go with a PPS over the PK380

i did a review a while back.

I shot one. Feels like a P22. Way too cheaply made to be trusted as a BUG, IMO. There was a thread on here where someone had the safety break and caused the gun not to function. If you want a small 380 for what I assume is the role of a BUG I might suggest a PPK/S.

I have a PPK/S and my son bought a PK380. We've shot them side by side at the range a couple of times now. I find the PPK easier to carry. Both guns have fed and fired equally well so far. I find the PK more pleasant to shoot, but that could just be the way it fits my hand. I like it enough that I'm considering getting one, but it's not #1 on my list of guns I want to own.

So did I. We had very different opinions.

I like mine. My buddy likes his.

I like mine.

But gonzo's floor doesn't...

I have had issues with the small frame and grip of the PPS - I held the 380 and it felt "nice" in comparison...

I would look into the new S&W Bodyguard .380 as well..shot one last weekend..I like it..

I've had no problems with my Walther PPK thus far. Easy to carry and conceal. One issue I did have was rounds not feeding steadily but found it to be a reloading problem, easily overcome.

Not if you are in Mass.

No.

I had a PPK in .380 Liked it a lot, but traded it off and went to a SIG 232 instead. A little on the heavy side...but a great shooter none the less.
