The two guns are similar in a number of ways. No doubt the Walther is much more finely finished and is of higher overall quality.

But the PPK is chambered for the weaker .380 cartridge (.32 is available but why bother), has a magazine capacity of only 8. The Walther also retails for over $500 new. You can buy two of these AND ammo for the price of one Walther.

Nothing against the Walthers, they're damn fine pistols. But if you're looking for a low-cost, well made, reliable, and cheap to shoot pistol I think these CZ's are worth picking up.

Strictly my opinion.

CZ is an old and well respected firearms maker. I have had a couple of old CZ made K98s that I liked a lot.

Hey, if the PPK was good enough for 007, it’s good enough for me. Have two of ‘em (one Interarms, the other German) — or had. I was out target shooting on a nearby lake and they BOTH fell into 50’ of water. And they were the only guns I owned.

Damn, hate when that happens.
