I purchased a genuine PPK in .380 approx 20 yrs ago. It was the WORST semi-auto that I have ever owned. Atrocious trigger, terrible accuracy, sharp edges cut the web of the hand, frequent jams, marginal SD caliber, BUT it looked cool. I traded it quickly. I DOUBT that a new S&W will be any better, other than the frame mod to eliminate the damage to the web of the hand. I would steer clear of the PPK......
