I’m now the new owner of a PPS. It looks just like new. It is 2012 production date so slide is stamped Smith & Wesson, Walther started their own import company in 2013. I got it for under $300 OTD. I will shoot it in a couple of weeks and post pics and review. I like the way it feels, and the paddle release doesn’t bother me at all. It is slightly larger than G43 but just as thin if not thinner. I think it will carry easy, I just need to find a holster. I’ve heard good things about crossbreed IWB. Thanks for all of the comments.
