Did you have a hammer block failure?

When we asked him about the reason for the recall he said that it was more serious than that the guns went off if dropped but he would not elaborate any further. He said that if you have one, "don't load it". He said there was a team in Germany right now working with Walther on a fix. That prompted me to ask if the internals of the S&W PPk/PPK/S were the same as the older PPk/PPK/S. He said no, that there have been about 20 changes and modifications to the design since S&W started building the PPK/PPK/S.

That leads me to believe that I, and others, were right when we surmised that there are design differences in the S&W models when compared to the older models and that this problem is specific to S&W models and not to all PPK/PPK/S models.

I've gone back to check up on the misfire issue, and found this story to be quite telling. In fact, this makes me wonder if we'll see a major revision in the PPK production once SW resumes operation on it.

That takes some serious cajones... hacking a site devoted to handguns.

Oh.....I don't know. It's only Walther, a small player in the firearms industry.
