Our Assessment: PPK stood for “Polizei Pistole Kriminal modell” (Police Pistol Detective Model) and was used by the German police detectives (street cops carried the larger PP chambered in .380 A.C.P.). The PPK Model was also very popular in the civilian market. Adolf Hitler committed suicide with a PPK and a PPK was used by the fictional spy James Bond after “M” made him trade-in skeletonized Beretta. The pre-war pistols are considered more collectible than any other period except for those made during the war, and the quality and workmanship on these pistols is outstanding. This Walther Model PPK was made in about 1937. The standard German marking at the time for PP and PPK models was for the use of a six-digit serial number, followed by a letter suffix as necessary. When the PP pistol sequence reached 999,999, Walther switched to a P suffix. But, in the PPK series the six digit numbers transitioned into 7 digit numbers for a short while before the K suffix was adopted. James Rankin, in his book “Walther”, Vol. II, indicates 7000-10,000 were manufactured with 7 digit numbers. This pistol is in Fine condition with about 87% of its original finish remaining. It shows surface loss and pinprick surface erosion at the front of the slide, with thinning on the edges of the slide and frame. There are light handling marks on the sides of the slide and on the trigger guard. The grips are checkered brown plastic with traces of black running through them. The checkering shows light wear without mars. There is a short hairline crack on both sides of the grip at the upper edge of the grip screw, several light handling marks in the left side of the grip and a two dings at the bottom rear left corner. The bore is bright with sharp rifling and a tiny tool mark in one of the lands near the muzzle. This pistol has a de-cocker that blocks the hammer. This is a very collectible pistol, nice looking and correctly marked. This is sure to end up in a collection of high-end pre-war automatics. There were a lot of 6 digit and K suffixed PPK’s made prior to and during WWII, but very few 7 digit serial number guns in comparison.
