Much good info on the Walther and PP pistols here, thanks to everyone. I always was enamored of the PPK style pistols, ever since I saw my first one as a young lad. Caliber didn't matter, I just thought they really looked cool and classy for a handgun. When I found out that they were being built in the US, I bought my stainless PPK/s .380 in 1989. I still have it, and it's been a very good gun for me. I handload the 88 grain Remington JHP's for it, and they work 100%, as their profile is very similar to FMJ ball. I realize some may have experienced spotty performance with their guns, but I can't complain.
