According
to Leroy Thompson in the current issue of Concealed
Carry Guns, for a .380 PPK he chooses
the following:
-
Cor-Bon's
90-grain JHP
-
Winchester's
Silvertip
-
Federal
Hydra-Shok
-
Mag-Safe's
Defender
- Thompson continues:
- "For me,
the classic .380 has always been the Walther PPK. Maybe I
spent too many hours reading James Bond novels as a teenager,
but from the time I handled my first PPK, the compact Walther
just felt right. It is flat, relatively streamlined and just
about the right size for a trousers pocket. At 6 1/2 inches
overall and 21 ounces, the PPK actually approaches the upper
limit of what I consider a pocket pistol."
- "...the American
PPK is designed for modern ammunition, and mine has performed
well with whichever high-performance combat ammo I've chosen
to feed it. Reliability is excellent, and this is the absolute
bottom line for a combat pistol. Like the fine wine, the PPK
has improved with age, and it remains the standard by which
other .380 pocket autos should be judged."
