Stainless PPK Interarms era

I had my stainless Interarms for about 10 years now .It was used. When bought I replaced the recoil spring with wolff and the hammer spring as well. I went with the stock spring weight. Its been reliable with all factory brands .Ive tried. I carry with Corbon DPX or JHP depends on what I can buy.

I have both IWB and pocket holster Both Don Hume Pistol is very accurate Just takes a little time and practice on that DA trigger.
 
I always thought the PPKs was an answer to a problem that did not exist until a politian became involved. I feel the PPK serves it's nitch nicely however others have come to like the bigger grip frame better. In conclusion it is nice that all the stupid import rule did is give us the same pistol (PPK) and an additional one to boot (PPKS) and made in the USA, Congress is always looking out for us.
 
First one I bought was a "West German" PPK/S. Turns out they were made by Manurhin in France and proofed in West Germany , which under European law somehow allowed Walther to stamp
"Made in West Germany" on them . When the American made PPK/S became available , I bought one of those. Despite glowing magazine articles to the contrary , the guns were nowhere near equal in quality . My American gun had a lower polish blue and shot a foot high at 40 feet . Interarms replaced it for me. The replacement shot better but still was nowhere near the European gun in fit and finish . A few years later , Manurhin decided to market their guns in the states. They ran ads that basically said , "You know those West German Walthers you've been buying ? Well we've been making them in France ." Interarms was not amused and before long , Manurhin disappeared from the marketplace . Not before I bought a very nice .380
PP , which to me is a better balanced gun than either the PP or the PPK/S .
