Very excited about this PPK and have to share my story with you.
I just met with a gun guy friend of mine that I haven’t seen for 50 years. He knew I liked Walther PPK’s and offered to sell (give me/I have to give him more gun items to make this deal more fair/no I cannot say what I paid since I do not want to get arrested).
It is an unfired, 1968 .380 PPK made in Germany. Interarms had these neat right-side grips made in Germany to try and address that 1968-gun law. My limited research explained the deal on these and it seems to be an interesting story. I think it adds even more to the value of this gun since it was probably the absolute last German PPK to be imported into the USA in 1968. The left grip has the “Made in W Germany” on it as some of my other German PP series guns do.
LEFT ND RIGHT SIDE
RIGHT SIDE GRIP PANEL WITH INTERARMS INFORMATION ON IT
THE BOX IS ALL THERE COMPLETE WITH THE PROPER SERIAL NUMBER, OWNERS MANUAL, AND TEST TARGET
THE DULL MAG CAME WITH THE GUN (I CAN ONLY ASSUME THAT IT IS CORRECT. THE NEW MAG IS PROBABLY NOT CORRECT FOR THIS VINTAGE PPK BUT IT WAS IN MY STASH SO I AM PUTTING IT TO WORK. I DID NOT GET THE STOCK, BROWN FINGER REST, MAG.
I BELIEVE THAT THE GUN IS TRULY AN UNFIRED SAMPLE
Thanks for letting me share my story with you. This will probably be one of my very few guns that will remain unfired.
