I shot the local Sheriff's off duty/backup handgun qualification course yesterday with a Smith/Walther PPK. It's 25 rounds and pretty easy, but the PPK did just fine and I had no problem at all qualifying at 100% with it. One of the deputies carries two PPK/S's as backups, one under each arm. I may be the only guy in America that has a Smith PPK that he likes, but this one has been absolutely flawless for several years and it was again yesterday. I would like to pick up a nice blued German gun sometime, but I certainly have no problems with the one I have. Neat little guns!
