what happened to the 45
I was basing my suggestion on feedback I got from a friend, he has owned one since the 1980's (direct import) and he told me that for several years it was fed a steady diet of Rem Yellow Jackets, as a result of which the extractor broke off and he had to wait for a while before he could carry one back to replace the original part... .22 KF ammo should be fine for plinking as long as you give it a good clean afterwards, I really don't see how it could damage your barrel so long as you are diligent about maintenance. Though I am sure many others would suggest you stick to imports... and frankly, since you are a member of MSRA you should be able to get imported .22 LR ammo at the range for ~INR 8 per pop, so why bother with the KFs?amk wrote:Why do you say that Abhi? I was told on other Walther forums High and Hyper Velocity would be ok as the frame, slide etc. were made for .32 and .380 ammo so .22 LR HV should be fine. Should I avoid it still? What about for carry purposes?
What about KF ammo, is it ok to use it for plinking? The dealer said Indian ammo tends to foul up a lot and there are cases where the rifling and/or barrels have been damaged. Should I avoid it or is it all just a hoax?
Anyone know who has and is selling spare mags for a .22 PPK? A Pistol feels incomplete with just a single mag.

Wow, excellent piece, god bless you....amk wrote:PeopleSSS, I have bought this Hammerli made .22 LR PPK. It is in SUPERB condition. Looks and feels brand new.
I test fired around 12 shots (9 IOF + 3 Phoren) before purchasing without any problem. I'll give a range report next week after trying CCI mini mags and stingers.
Edit: Some more
