Safety concerns over 7+1 .380ACP Walther PPK pistol design.?
I purchased my first Walther today and read extensively on it, but was unable to find any information about accidental discharge failsafe mechanisms in the event that the weapon is dropped on it's hammer, specifically when decocked. This concerns me as the pistol automatically decocks itself when you engage the safety. Of course you can tell me not to carry it with a round chambered, but endless histories of the PPK production run praise it as the first commercially successful semi-automatic pistol that could be safely carried with a round chambered. Obviously, I don't intend to drop it, but you can equate that to not intending to wreck your car. These things happen. Thank you in advance for your answers. Good day.
No need to be concerned. The Walther PPK has an integral hammer block safety built into the handgun that even with a round chambered..as long as the safety is on..Dropping it on the hammer WILL NOT result in the handgun dis-charging. The Walther PPK is one of the finest designed German handguns today as it has been since it's inception many years ago....It's built in sasfety features is a huge and popular selling point to many who own these firearms.
As a Walther Dealer and consumer, I recommend this handgun to many customers both men and women as a self defense and CCW. If you have any additional concerns or need further validation of what I'm telling you simply call Walther USA at:

I personally, still carry a 380 PPK in Stainless Steel as a CCW in summertime when light clothes are the norm.
