The pistol is in the white and has a blank slide with only has serial number and caliber on. Both steel and light alloy framed pistols were produced postwar. History In the early 1930s, the Italian army was impressed by the Walther PP pistol. Either one of these books will contain an index of serial numbers for Wa.
The Walther PPK (Polizei Pistole Kriminal) was produced since 1930. It was developed for a hidden carriage. The engineers from Walther reduced the length, width and weight. The main difference to the PP is the frame with no back strap. this function was integrated in a single molded Grip. Also the grip was shortened, so the clip has only a capacity of 7 rounds. The shortness was balanced with a magazine-shoe on the bottom.

The PPK/S German version in 'good' condition has an approximate retail value of $375 and a PPK/S American in 'good' condition has an approximate retail value of $300. I do not however have any reliable info concerning the year of manufacture. However, an educated guess can be made by the available info listed on this firearm. I have a Walther PPK 7,65mm with the serial number 10019xx. I'd like to know what it's approximate value and what year it was manufactured. The left hand side of the slide has the following information: Waffenfabrik Walther, Zella Mehlis (Thru.) Walther's Patent Cal 7,65 m/m.

The PPK and the PP were also produced very successfully after war. Even James Bond had an Walther PPK.
