Description
This German-manufactured Walther PPK/S is a semi-automatic double-action/single-action pistol chambered in .22 Long Rifle. A contemporary iteration of the classic design, this example features a 3.3-inch threaded barrel, a black-finished slide and frame, and black checkered polymer grips adorned with the Walther banner logo. The left side of the slide is prominently marked with the Walther banner and transcribed as CARL WALTHER ULM/DO. / MODEL PPK/S CAL. .22 L.R. / MADE IN GERMANY. The right side of the slide bears the import mark WALTHER ARMS / FORT SMITH, AR. The right side of the frame is struck with the serial number WF032513, followed by DE, a CIP over N proof mark, and the date code BH, which corresponds to 2017 production based on standard German proof house coding. Additional CIP over N proof marks are visible on the chamber and slide. The pistol is equipped with a manual safety/decocker lever, a spurred hammer, and fixed sights. This lot includes one 10-round stainless steel magazine, the original black plastic Walther hard case, the safety and instruction manual, and original accessories. Note – All firearms require a federal 4473 background check.
Condition report:
The pistol is in good overall condition, showing visible signs of honest use. The black finish on the slide exhibits thinning and scattered chipping, most notably at the rear of the slide and surrounding the hammer area. The polymer grips remain well-defined with sharp checkering and minimal handling marks. The bore is bright with strong, crisp rifling. The action appears to function correctly, with the manual safety/decocker and trigger pull operating as intended. The included stainless steel magazine is in excellent condition. The plastic case shows light external scuffs from storage.
