Light Workout for the PPKS

I had been reading all the bad press on the American made PPKS on these forums. I was really worried about all the things I read, debating selling the gun without shooting it.

Today, I took out my Walther along with 4 other handguns and a AK47 and shoot up some ammo with my buddies.

I put 100 rounds of .380 through the PPKS, 50 Magtech and 50 Winchester. Both FMJ.

In 100 rounds, I had 3 jams. ALl 3 jams were user error (limp wristing.) The gun was highly accurate. All 3 of us were routinely hitting anything we aimed at. The gun definately exceeded my expectation.

I am a large guy with huge hands. I had 0 bites from the blowback slide on the gun.

I think I was a little paranoid from the reactions I saw on this forum. I think this taught me to check it out formyself. I now will try and ignore all the criticism, or hype, of any certain gun until I see it for myself.

The Walther turned out to be a fantastic gun. Accurate and Reliable. I will definately habe no problems carrying that thing for CCW.
 
Glad it worked out for you. She should serve you well. I highly recommend slapping some Pachmayrs on it, if you haven't already. The gun must really like you too, since it didn't bite the web of your hand. Or maybe it's because, unlike other people, you actually know how to hold a gun in your hand. ;) Have fun!!
