That looks like a nice one. I have never owned one, just a PP many years ago. Wish I still had it. Good addition to your collection.

Not to pick on it but is that grip cracked?
..Comment
-
yes its cracked, but that is very common on PPKs, people tend to tighten the grip screw and cracked the grips... the Germans didn't use a very strong plastic on those things.Comment
-
Actually it was a very good and advanced plastic for its purpose:to provide protection for the main spring of the PPK that had no rear frame and still maintain the necessary lightness of a pocket pistol. But no one realized the deterioration over time of cellulose acetate.Comment

I thought they just cracked at the top..

I kick myself for having sold my minty RZM PPK years ago.

Great looking ppkComment

A beauty in superb condition
I have no concerns at all with the grips cracked, very very common as said beforeComment

I agree. A real nice piece and the crack does not detract from it.
