21 rounds @21 ft. with a Walther PPK/S
I finally picked my PPK/S up from the FFL, last night. So, I took it to the range today, with the purpose of breaking it in. I was really hoping that all the bad press about the gun was just haters. I've heard how unreliable the PPK is, and hoped I had a good one. Weeeeeelllll. There's good and bad. The good; Yes, it is a hell of an accurate pistola. The round goes where you point it. The bad; it had multiple failures to feed. It seems to get caught up at the throat somehow. And after 300 rounds, it was still doing it, just not as bad. It also did it with the ball ammo and not the hollow points. It really liked the Precision One stuff. Not one feed problem in all 50 rounds of that. So, I guess thats a plus. I would definitely NOT trust my life to this firearm, as it is today. I also remember Chad saying that it was garbage, and the are much better options out there. I partly agree with you Lord Chad . There are more reliable options out there. For instance; my LCP. I've never had a FTF/FTE with that handy little pocket slayer. I WOULD and DO trust my life with that. But, with that said. It is NOT junk! It is extremely accurate, and, very well made. It is also one of the sexiest handguns ever made. (IMHO)
Any hoot, here's a few pictures of the adventure.
The first is 21 rounds at 21 ft. The targets are 8"
The second is 50 rounds at 21 ft.
