So I took my S&W PPK/S to the range a week ago and was just getting around to cleaning it when I found this little bugger that shouldn't have been there.
Here's a look at the same "rip" from the other side.
And another look at it.
I instantly called Walther America and they're sending a shipping label, though obviously I think that they're going to have to replace the entire frame. In June I had to send it in to have them machine the pistol so that the slide could come off. I guess they machined it a little too much. The metal in that area feels about as thin as an aluminum can. I'm just glad that the pistol didn't explode or something while I was firing it.
