So, here's the story. My dad collected firearms years ago but my mom forced him to sell most of them off when I was born. Over the years he's commented multiple times that the PPK was the one firearm he always wanted but never owned. Last March he flatlined in surgery and was dead for two minutes before they were able to revive him. I decided that for his birthday this March I was going to get him that PPK. After a lot of research I decided to go with one of the West German PPK/S models. I found one on gunbroker with the original box/papers/cleaning rods, and the seller stated that he believes it to be unfired (judging by the pics, he may very well be right).
My question is, what is your opinion on these particular models in comparison to the others, and what is a reasonable price? The bid is already higher than what it's probably worth, but I'm not worried about a couple hundred dollars given the circumstances. I just don't want to go too overboard as there are plenty of alternatives. Just not many in that condition.
