Nick, where do you like to shoot? I may be putting some various ammo through a PPK this weekend.
Don't know if you every get down to Top Gun in Arnold. It's a nice range, but it was PACKED a couple weekends ago. This weekend's looking nice, too. Maybe I'll wait until Monday.

I've shot this one plenty, and I've had a couple FTF's even on ball ammo (like maybe 2 out of 300. Could a good gunsmith go over it improve reliability?
Yes, a little cleaning up will help quite a bit. Never had a PPK/S but the couple PPK's I had were very reliable. You can also disable the "hammer drop" safety easily so that you can carry it "cocked and locked".

Did you try different brands of HP? My .380 lcp had issues cycling one brand, but has cycled flawlessly on another.
At the time I was hell-bent on reloading and I couldn't find more than a couple suppliers for the balls. Truth be told, the HP problem was only part of why I sold it. I had my eye on a .45.
Walther for free? And you're asking?
Oh,Hellllllllllllll yes. Something will feed.
