Gorgeous Walther Interarms Model PPK .380 Blued Semi Automatic Pistol & Box Ca. 1994
Our Assessment: "PPK" is an abbreviation for Polizeipistole Kriminal (literally "police pistol criminal"), referring to the Kriminalamt crime investigation office. While the K is often mistakenly assumed to stand for kurz (German for "short"), as the variant has a shorter barrel and frame, Walther used the name "Kriminal" in early advertising brochures and the 1937 GECO German catalog. The Walther PPK is a well designed handgun. This PPK was produced under contract by Interarms in Virginia for Walther in 1994 and is chambered for .380 ACP. It retains about 99% original finish and is in excellent condition. Please see our photos and good luck!
