Looking into a Walther PK380 for a new carry gun. Its a little bit bigger then the "pocket" carry guns. Has anyone here ever shot one, any input who be much appreciated! Thanks!
Thanks. The guns fits nice in my hand. I know its "only" a .380, it holds 8 + 1. I like it. I have one on hold when it comes in on Wednesday, gotta decide before then. I guess I'm looking for some reason not to buy it!
This gun felt great in the hand, shot better than I thought it would and was just an all around great shooter to be honest. Honestly though, if i was in the hunt for a .380 in that size I'd just get a Bersa, cheaper which if I like two things the same will always win out.
You can get a 9mm in a similar sized frame. If you get anything bigger than a .380 LCP, Sig P238, etc. your doing yourself an injustice by not "calibering" up.
I love mine. It's bigger than the average .380, but it will still fit in your pocket. With critical defense ammo, it's my CC weapon of choice.
I had a lot of .9's in a similar frame in my hands the past few days, just didn't feel like the PK does in my hand. I see your point, but when do ya stop "calibering" up? Any bigger frame gun then the PK I looked at and I see a problem with me actually carrying it full time. I liked the P238 and if I'm not mistake its a heavier gun then the PK380??
I've been looking at a PPS, I can get one locally for $500.... But I'm still waiting on the M&P Shield. Both 9mm... Whats the pk gonna run you? Another thing to consider, .380 ammo is costing more than 9mm right now...
I can get the gun for $379+ the $25 background check charges and tax! All in all not a bad deal on a great gun! I figure if for some unfore seen reason I don't like it I can always sell it and get most if not all my money back!
I've held one and I really like the way they feel in the hand. When I do decided to purchase a carry gun ( I need to turn 21 first ) this is going to be at the top of the list.
Sure is a problem finding extra magazines for this! Damn, the only down fall I see so far is that it only comes with one clip!
