Walther PP kurz/380 value

[Kurusu]

Second piece of evidence. Later on on the film Bond and Leiter compare their...PP

No one is going to make me believe those are PPK.

I support the Bond photo group, the Walther in the photos is a PP!

 

[BAM-BAM]

The PP is probably not as in demand as the PPK. If it's just the pistol with no box, papers, or accessories, my guesstimate is between $450 and $600.

I'd put it closer to the $450-500 range (especially if it's "friends & family" pricing) ........ add $100 or so for a PPK...... another $100 for all the stuff.

Extra magazines are $30-40 apiece..... IIRC Mec-Gar still sells new ones.

FWIW I got a stainless PPK/s in .32acp with 4 magazines about 3 years ago for $380....... LGS figured a big heavy .32 would be a dog to sell..... with 4 mags I thought it was a good deal.

I carried a .380 PPK/s and later a PPK w/ Hogue wood grips as a suit gun in the 80s in a Sparks summer special..... still carry it from time to time.

Check the bids on Gun Broker and Gun Auction on Walther PP and PPK pistols. Some of the bids are quite high. On Gun Auction a PPK 380 proofed in the year of 2000 is at $1600.00. I expect it to hit $2000.00 in the final bidding. Just watching it for fun.

And to make things even worse.

In this scene it isn't even a Walther. It's an FN 1910 with a silencer.

I just looked at the clip on Youtube and armorer referred to the Walther as a ppk.

Ahem,,,,it is a magazine,,because it has a spring in it.
Clip,,,,think of an M-1.

I have only owned one PP.
It was a 32.
Took it in on a trade and almost immediately sold it.
I do have a PPK/S.
I hope that you don't think -
I'm a Criminal.
I'm short.

I was referring to the film CLIP. I am most aware of the differences in nomenclature.

Does the Fort Smith PPK/S come in a parkerized version or is that an aftermarket finish?

Mine was made in Germany.
The factory finish is described as 'black.'
In person, It looks Black Matte.
The double action trigger pull is published as 17.5 pounds, feels like more.
Otherwise, excellent gun.

A PPK (non S) may be rare in the S and may bring more form a collector who knows this.

A PPK/S is a PPK slide on a taller PP frame. Don't see many legit older PPK's since our benevolent government decided that teeny tiny guns were a threat to public safety back in '68 and regulated their import with the GCA. This is why you see little bitty European pocket guns imported after '68 with stupid lanyard rings - to increase the size of the gun and get around import restrictions. Those old PPK's with the orange Bakelite grips are sweet.
