comes up SHORT - LOL - correction well taken - did not know that. Yes, my Walther PPK/S shoots 9mmKurz (aka .380 ACP vs 9mm luger/parabellum) - which is interesting becuase there is apparently a wide spread misconception that the K in PPK is Kurz, which makes sense as it is smaller than the PP (Polizei Pistole), but it is actually Kriminal, meaning, in some way, undercover. Frankly, I think K meaning Kurz in the PPK context makes more sense and I often wonder if it is not REALLY Kurz. Chris
