Two great reasons not to buy the Walther PP is the fact that it is 7 oz. heavier, and it bites my knuckle of my thumb. I finally picked up a P230 today. It is great, 22mm wide at the slide, has a safety, 9 rounds total capacity, super accurate, low recoil, low report. Now I gotta find some goodies. Spare magazine, holster, wood grips.
