In the "OVERVIEW OF SERIES" on page 49 of the 2022 Catalog, Walther lumps the .22 PPK/S in with the models in .380 ACP, creating the impression the .22 version is also ideal for concealed carry. The .22 PPK/S page also has the concealed carry symbol.
Flush Magazines for the PPK/S.22
Several months I purchased a PPK/S in 380 and am very pleased with it. It is a simple uncomplicated gun that shoots very well. I quickly realized that I did not like the extended finger grip and changed both magazines to flat floor plates.
Shortly after that the American Rifleman had an add for the PPK/S.22 and it intrigued me. My local gun dealer ordered one for me which came with one magazine with a finger extension. Of course I did not like the finger extension. I called Walther to see if they made a magazine for the PPK/S.22 with a flat floor plate even if it only held eight or seven rounds. They informed me that they did not.
Question. Does anyone know where a magazine for the PPK/S.22 with a flat floor plate can be obtained?
As a side line. During my last contact with Walther concerning parts for the 380 magazines they informed me that they did not carry parts for the magazines any more. This means that if you lose a small part of the magazine you will have to buy a whole net magazine. Great work!

You're right. Same catalog, I was looking at the PDF page counter.
The point was only that Walther markets it as a concealed carry pistol inspite of not producing a flat based magazine. However, your observation about training applies to weapons of any caliber.
