Quote HistoryQuoted:
I have owned five or six PPK (and PPK/S) models in .380. German made and American made. Mine have always been reliable. The piece was originally designed as a .32 though, and thus not originally built for .380 ACP. - German made PPKs were superb quality. - American made PPKs made by Interarms were usually very good, but pieces made in the last year of production before Interarms went under were "sometimes" of poor quality. - Smith and Wesson made PPKs are a coin toss. Some are good, and some are pieces of shit. Anyone in this thread who is making blanket statements and lumping German made PPKs in with Smith and Wesson ones, does not know what they are talking about, period. Quote HistoryQuoted:

http://www.imfdb.org/wiki/Hellsing_Ultimate#Jackal
The Jackal carried by Alucard in Helsing. Solid silver handgun firing 13mm rounds, weighs 16 kilograms. An M240 only weighs 11.6Kg
As they said on cracked.com, it and the slightly smaller 454 Casull auto he carries are so big you would need parachute pants to concealed carry them and were apparently engraved at an American mall kiosk. |

James Bond's Walther PPK is the silliest gun ever used by a fictional character. Fine, they want a .380 so it won't print through his tuxedo, but you'd expect MI 6 to give him a pistol that worked, like a Colt or a Beretta. My dad has a PPK, and AFAIK he's never had a malfunction with it. Congratulations. You and 110 conclusively proved that the other hundred or so people I met didn't know what they were talking about when they sold their Walthers at a significant loss because they said the things were jam-o-matic, slice-o-matic piles of garbage.

The aluminum would have vaporized well before reaching anywhere near that speed. You would basically be shooting a jet of plasma. and even more likely, spewing x-rays all over the place too. |
