Does The PPK Use The Same Grips As The PPK/S?

I want to buy these:

But I own a PPK. Can you use PPK/S grips on a PPK?

 

[rcmodel]

No.

PPK uses wrap-around grips because the frame doesn't have a steel backstrap.

PP & PPK/S uses two flat panels because it does have a steel backstrap.

Meh, I'm not a fan of those hogue grips. They're a bit too vanilla.

Ok, let me ask this, will the grips that will fit a S&W PPK also fit an Interarms PPK?

PP and PPK/s grips should fit the PPK/s and the PP regardless of manufacturer. PPK grips (wraparound) should fit the PPK regardless of manufacturer.

The PPK/s is essentially the PPK slide on the PP frame; that was done to get the few points needed to import the German-made PPK/s before they were made here.

Ok...but I have a PPK, so none of that really helps.

Have you looked at Marschal Grips' website?
Nice custom grips in a variety of wood, colors, finishes, and styles.

Here is their PPK grip page:

They take a few weeks to arrive, but the Marshal grips I've bought for other guns were worth the wait.

Thanks for the link, but good god, their website is horrible. It's hard to tell what my options are.

PPK/s grips do not fit a PPK. PPK/s grips are too long - just like trying to fit regular 1911 grips on an officer's model. A PPK/s is basically a PP frame with a PPK slide.

CDNN Investments sometimes carries PPK grips, or try brownells or midway usa.

If you want to go high dollar, look up spegel grips. Absolute highest quality.

Are you looking to purchase PPK grips or a web design?

PPK Grips...but it's hard to do when crappy web design keeps me from completing an order.

Nothing at all like that.

The PPK uses wrap-around grips to make the backstrap of the frame that isn't there.

The PP / PPK/s frame uses flat panel grips because it does have a solid steel frame backstrap.
