Title: PPK
Post by: Eyeball Chambers on April 19, 2008, 11:24:35 PM: Any opinions on the Walther PPK as a Concealed Carry weapon?

I know it doesn't pack as much of a punch as some, but....

My old man bought one just because of that :)

But not much worse! ;D ::) ;D

Considering you can get a Kahr PM9 in a much more potent rnd at about the same size, I would pass on anything .380 these days. Too many great very small 9mm out there now.

Well, no gun is too small and light when you have to carry it around all day and no gun it too big and heavy when the SHTF. You go for the PPK, I will for the hand cannon, and we'll see who is still standing when the smoke clears... Yes, the .22 in your hand is better than the .357 you left at home, so get what you really can and will carry.
