Shot mine yesterday for the first time. Accurate and reliable with S&B ball ammo.

On the PP, is the mark of the police agency X'd out? Here's what it looks like on mine.

Have an Interarms PPK in .380 that was my suit gun from about 1985 till I got my first 3913 in 89/90. Had the feed ramp polished for hollowpoints and a small beavertail added for the hammer bite.

For s---- and giggles shot IDPA with it a couple of times in the 90s......

Semi-retired now replaced by a 3913 or 14 but LOL still my "Tux Gun"

Hogue still makes wood grips for them and a Sparks Summer Special has been my holster of choice since the 80s.

Great price.... on a whim; I picked up a stainless Interarms PPK/s in .32 last year for IIRC $350 but it had 4 magazines.......haven't even shot it yet but have accumulated a couple hundred rounds of ammo........ got to shoot it this summer.

I've had a SS Interarms PPK/s .380 for years; bought it new and it is still my "light" concealed carry firearm when I can't dress to conceal something bigger. Mine has always been super reliable and I'm always surprised at how well I can hit with it.

Whether the police markings are X-ed out depends on the state that issued and then surplused the gun.
Niedersachsen (Lower Saxony in English parlance) never did bother defacing their marks, and their Nds markings are often found on PP's as well as on the bulk of ex-police HK P7's. On PP's, the ByP for Bayern (Bavaria) is also not rare. Pretty much all Sig P6's have the NW for Nordrhein-Westfalen (Northrhine-Westphalia) on the right side of the slide; you can safely assume that most post-war Walther-marked PP's with a lanyard loop are also from there, even though they are not marked. And any Manurhin-made P1's and PP's with a round starburst symbol come from the pre-1980s West Berlin police.
Any German police markings beyond that get scarce. The ones on your gun are too effectively destroyed for me to identify.

The "NDS" mark is visible on my gun above, right under the mag release button.

Under a magnifying glass, it looks like the coat of arms for Baden-Württemberg.
