Your Walther PPS was designed, developed, manufactured and shipped from Walther's production facility in Ulm, Germany. The new facility was built in 2005. S&W is the importer and service contractor for Walther.

Walther Arms has never pushed hard into the US market so the agreement with S&W was used instead of building a manufacture plant here the US such as companies like HK in Newington, New Hampshire and Glock in Smyrna, Georgia.

 

Hi, this is my first post so take my knowledge or lack thereof with a grain of salt. In the wikipedia entry it mentions that the pps manufacture is licensed to Radom, in Poland.

Here is the specific quote: "The PPS pistols are made under license in Poland by Fabryka Broni Radom. [2]"

And a link to the article:

Walther PPS

 

That Wiki entry is misleading and has lead to several posts. Radom, in Poland, has a contract to produce PPS's and P99's from Walther. They are stamped "Radom" on the slide and are not available for U.S. import.

 

 

That is misleading. Thanks for the clarification!
