I am so sorry if this has already been asked. I tried searching about 10 different ways and for about 2 hours total, and I cannot find any information on this.
So for the sake not just having a "James Bond" gun, but "the James Bond" gun; I am trying to figure out which manufacturers were responsible for certain ppks in the movies.
I know the new PPK/s is a S&W in Skyfall. And according to the Manurhin website they made the guns in 18/23 of the movies as shown in the link below.
We are proud of - Manurhin
It is not that I don't believe them, but every time I see a PPK in the movies (including those listed), I never see the huge MANURHIN marketing all over. Seeing real Manurhins, it looks like every single Walther Banner is replaced with the Manurhin cog and label. So were the ones used in the movies really Manurhins? Did they somehow switch out the logos or did Hollywood specifically commission Manurhin to make them with Walther logos instead?
Thank you all so much. My first two pistols are actually going to be the PPQ and PPS, but just to satisfy the movie collector in me as well, I want to get as accurate as possible when I buy the PPK.
