Is Walther PK 380 A good gun?

Is Walther PK 380 A good gun?

The gun was comfortable to shoot; it was no trouble at all to shoot 500 rounds through it in just one session. A smooth, light trigger, larger size, and decent sights make the PK380 loads of fun to shoot.

What caliber is a PK 380?

The Walther PK380 is chambered for the . 380 Auto (9×17mm) cartridge, and its design is very similar to the . 22 LR (5.6 mm) Walther P22, which in turn is based on the larger Walther P99. Like the P22, the PK380 features a slide-mounted, ambidextrous manual hammer-block, non-decocking safety and an external hammer.

Does Walther make a 380 pistol?

Walther PPK/s 380 ACP Stainless Pistol with Walnut Grips.

What’s the difference between the PPK and the PK380?

The PK380, on the other hand, has a polymer frame and uses the same locking delayed blowback action as all the other pistols in this test. While the PPK is known for being a compact gun used by covert operators on the silver screen, the PK380 is actually one of the larger guns in our test.

What do I like about the Walther PK380?

Let’s start out with what I like about it. First, and perhaps most importantly, it is a locked-breech design. This is different than most .380 ACP pistols on the market, which use a direct-blowback system, and it makes one very big difference: it is easier to rack the slide on the PK380.

Is the PK380 a good, bad, and ugly pistol?

No, not a Bond flick – that’d be the PPK. Rather, of “The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly.” Not because it resembles it in any aesthetic sense, but that it’s obvious to me what’s “Good,” “Bad” and “Ugly” about it. The PK380 is a recently introduced, medium-framed .380 ACP pistol intended for the concealed-carry market.

Which is the double action pull on the PK380?

You simply flick the safety with your thumb as you point the gun towards the target. Because of the DA/SA action, the PK380 has two different trigger pulls. The first is the double action pull, which both cocks the hammer and releases it. The second is the single action pull, which only trips the hammer.
