[QUOTE="druryj, post: 2945919, member: 10465"] Hey! I was hoping ldp4570 would show up; man, I knew you would, and that you'd post that pic of all those beauties. You are absolutely right in the post above. To me, the PP series in particular has that grace and beauty of which you speak. Some people say the PPK/S is a step-child, born out of the requirements of the 1968 GCA; but to me, the PPK/S is the purtiest one. I dunno; there's just something about the slightly longer grip of the PPK/S that seems to accentuate the lines of the slide...but when S&W elongated that tang, and it threw that balance off and "the balance of nature was disrupted". Some actually like the longer tang, but to me, it ruined the beauty of the pistol's classic look. LOL! here we are, on a firearms forum, talking about these things like they are works of art. Well; they are. IMO, there are no classier looking handguns than the Walther PP series. And the one I had engraved and gave to my daughter to be passed on to future little Drury grandchildren had a not-bad DA trigger and a SA trigger as nice as that on my 1911. It was an incredibly accurate little pistol too. The only thing wrong with that PPK/S is that I gave it to her for keeps a few years too soon. LOL! C'mon Walther, bring back Carl Walther's design and produce the PPK and PPK/S in .32ACP and .22lr too. Please. [/QUOTE]
