Walthers industry-leading innovation takes the spotlight with their PPK model handguns. The PPK inspired an entirely new category in the firearm industry, now widely known as the concealed carry pistol. To fill the need for performance in a concealable package, Walther broke the mold of pocket pistols and full-size military pistols to bring undercover officers a more-practical and reliable option. The PPK provides all the power needed in a self-defense pistol without sacrificing on critical functionalities. It features a double-action/single-action trigger that decocks when rotating the safety down into the safe position, first introduced by Walther. This demand serves as a testament to Walthers long-enduring legacy of excellence and unparalleled performance.

The 32 ACP (32 Automatic Colt Pistol, 7.65 Browning) was designed for Belgium's Fabrique Nationale by John Browning in 1897…the small, concealable semiautomatic pistols he was designing needed cartridges! The 32 ACP uses a .309-inch or 7.65mm bullet. Its original 71-grain bullet at 905 feet per second is no powerhouse, but it was a standard police and military cartridge in many European countries and remains a popular personal defense round. With modern jacketed hollowpoint loads it is much more effective than ever before. 32 ACP is no longer as popular as its big brother, the 380 ACP, but it is still widely manufactured and available. — Craig Boddington
