The only time I needed my Glock I pulled it out and it jammed immediately. I threw it at the perpetrator. It hit him in the head but he picked it up and pointed it at me. Thankfully it jammed again. The magazine fell out and he tripped on it while running away. You may doubt my Glock. But it got the job done.

The Walther PP was not banned from importation, the PPK was the only one of the series that did not meet the height requirement of the 1968 gun control act. The PPK/S was invented as a work around, it utilized a PP frame with a PPK slide and barrel making the pistol tall enough to import. The began manufacturing some PP series pistols here in the US under the Interarms name (Ranger Manufacturing), but continued manufacture of the PP and PPK/S in Germany. Eventually all German production stopped and Walther Arms had them manufactured by Smith and Wesson here in the US. Walther Arms has set up their own factory in Arkansas and they are currently produced there. The post Interarms USA made pistols are of much lesser quality than German and French made Walthers. Pre-war and early wartime pistols produced in the Zella-Mehlis factory are of the highest quality. It should be noted that although many people do carry German PP series pistols with the safety off, it is possible to have a drop fire. It would be very unlikely for this to happen but it is definitely possible. The firing pin is not secured unless the safety is on. The newer US made models have a firing pin block to prevent this. Anyway, I enjoyed your video. Thank you.

I have a Mauser 1914 that I inherited from my father. He got it from a trade he made in the mid 60s. The guy he got them from said they it was a WWII bring back. He threw in another one that had a hairline crack in the slide, for parts. Not sure what happened to that one but it had Nazi markings. Since I got it in 1997 I’ve only shot it once just to make sure it still worked. Very solid little gun.

The 1911 is great, but it's not really a carry gun. They weigh in at just under 2.5 pounds unloaded.

Chris Kelley .45's a pretty big caliber for an everyday carry weapon too. I'm over six feet tall myself, and I wouldn't consider a 1911 a weapon I'd want to lug around all day, concealed or open.

1911 its a fantastic gun and one of the best handguns of all time hands down but it just doesn't fit the "conceal carry" role. It's too big and . 45 ACP it's too much of a large round for a carry option.

I have always loved Walther's PP, PPK, and PPKS from Interarms.

There's many classic pistols you missed by limiting your date to 1920. If you had brought it ten years ahead to 1930, you could have included the excellent Remington Model 51, made in .32 Auto and later .380 ACP. That's been my choice for CC. I'm sure there's quite a few others.
@ozarkbeararms88408 жыл бұрын
All good guns. Just as a side note, both the Walther PP and PPK/S are still importable; they have enough points. It is only the PPK that fails the test but since it was made in 1931, it doesn't qualify according to your guidelines anyway. James Bond did indeed use the larger PP over the PPK on occasion too, so good on you for knowing that Alex, cheers.

One nice gun I would love to still have that I carried for a long time and it was the back up for a detective I knew was a Walther Model 8 in .25 ACP. While it wasn't the greatest caliber, it shot every single time and had an 8 round mag. It shot all the time and was a pre-WWII gun.

It's interesting to me that 100 years later the technology is essentially the same. We ought to be using blasters and phasers already.
