Where can I find replacements? I just picked up my new PPK/S and want to get some wood grip panels, but the ones I'm finding are for the S&W versions only.

Maybe Walther? They have a wood set that comes with a version of the PPK. I'm not sure if they have the same dimensions as the S&W grips.

They appear to be based heavily upon the S&W version, ergo it's safe to assume they have the same dimensions and thus S&W PPK/S grips will fit a new Walther as well. If not, then they may require a bit of fitting, but should still work.

If you want to be sure, then try contacting Walther Arms Customer Support, they should have a definitive answer.

I didn't think to contact Walther (duh) I wrote them an email. I might also get a cheap S&W grip and see if they work.

I will update once I figure something else.

Thanks for the responses.

Exactly this. They are shipping a version of the PPK/S with what appear to be very nice wooden grips.

Perhaps the will sell to you directly or tell you who is making the grips for them.

I've talked to them in the past and got different answers from different people. Seems it sometimes depends who you are talking to...

If you are handy and don't mind a little modification these grips are made for Smith and Wesson PPK's I have a set on my S&W and love the quality.

The biggest challenge finding grips for the new PPK's is very few have been released at this point.

Can't speak for how they will interchange, but Altamont makes really great, reasonably priced grips.

Any info on why the difference, I have a nice set of Houges on my( i think 89) PPK/S stainless model. But check out houges, they came with mu gun, but i think thete pretty expensive.

Just heard back from Walther customer support and they said that the new production PPK/S and Smith and Wesson PPK/S share the same grip panels.

I think I'm going to find a cheap pair and make sure before I spring for something fancy.

If Walther says that the new production Walther PPK/S grips are interchangeable with S&W PPK/S grips, then you can take their word for it. Walther arms bought all of the leftover parts and tooling from S&W after their production run was concluded, ergo the frames on the new PPK/S were most likely built to the same specifications using the same equipment, and may even have been fitted with leftover grips from the S&W grips.

So yeah, don't waste your money on a cheap pair of grips, just buy some from Altamont. My S&W PPK/S is fitted with Altamont Super Rosewood Grips, and they were worth every penny.

I will probably pick up a set of Altamont grips this weekend. Thanks

Grips4u.net have them for all PP and PPK/S models. I have used Altamont and Grips4u grips. They are both of very high quality.

They are out of ALL of the rosewood grips?
Dang.
I am going to try some flea bay wood grips that have a nice look.
They take a month to get here, but for $40 I can wait.
