Just an FYI if you do go for one in the future avoid the italian ones and make sure its got a good looking smooth feeding ramp on it as that's the key to finding a reliabile one.

or any sort of reliabile variant of the PPK design for that matter as with those designs the feeding ramp and the barrel are separate unlike on the Colt 1903 or any of the FN's of that time period and if their not lined up properly or its got an uneven feeding ramp it can be as unreliabile as hell even with ball ammo hence the hit and miss reputation of small pocket pistols like that.
