Walther PPS

[Avi8tor]

Has anyone heard anything bad about them? Anyone know of any good holsters for them?

I have one in .40. It's my EDC. Not much on holsters......Fobus is the only affordable one I found.
I would pick a 9mm if you don't like recoil.....the .40 is pretty snappy.

My friend has a PPS .40 that I’ve shot a few times. They are pretty snappy in the .40 flavor. You cannot beat how slim this gun is though. He has not had any issues with his PPS.

If you want a plain jane holster look at High Noon Holsters.

My friend carriers his IWB in a “Bare Asset” and has never complained.

My only real beef is the cost. Even though it’s a solid gun it seems you may be paying a bit more for the name.

Early on there were some reports of the slide stop spring coming loose and jamming the slide, but I looked at mine and while it could happen, I also am pretty sure I could fix it. Having said that, I have around a thousand rounds through my .40 and love it for carry. The only issue I ever had was 1 fte within the first 50 rounds. No troubles since. I carry mine mostly in a Fobus OWB kydex holster.

Thanks for the info. Yeah I have been looking into them in 9mm. Looks like the only real problem is holsters but I will def. take the recommendations you gave

I've got the 9mm, lots of rounds through it, no problems.

Carry it in a Crossbreed, very nice. Also have a Bladetech that works better for some clothes. It'll also fit in a Desantis pocket holster for a j frame, for pocket carry in a heavier coat. I love miine, easy to carry, nice to shoot.

I carry one (.40)when concealment is a must. It's slimness is a real plus. I'm still using an Uncle Mikes for lack seeking a better option yet.

Fits in the front pocket of my riding jacket too.

My wife has close to 1000 rounds through her 9mm. No complaints, nice gun. Only bad thing is the $55 magazines (when you can find them).

I like these alot, probably one of my favorite guns i'll never buy. With the long thin mag release I can't get to it. If it would have had a conventional maga release I would have bought one. I have friends who have shot them a lot and no reported issues.

I've got one in 40 and it's very thin and a nice carry. I ended up buying a 7 & 5 round mag for it $$$$. I've got three holsters I carry it in, one High Noon "pocket grabber", one High Noon ITW and one paddle Fobus. All are comfortable to carry.
I give the gun two thumbs up. I've never had any issues with it at the range.

My GF's mom bought one in .380 back in the mid 90's, and has since given it to us since she didn't shoot it at all. I don't really like it, recoil is a bit snappy, and the barrel seems to scuff on the slide a bit much.... but since I'm out a good bit in public during the summer, its a good carry piece for my cargo shorts and tube top. (just kidding)

I think you are talking about the PPK.

PPK is in the back.
