I have a S&W/Walther PPK/S and I once picked up a Colt Mustang for an ex. Colt Mustang is a very nice pistol. All the good things in a Colt .45 shrunk into a .380. In my research, the PPK was made for CCW, "Ploizei Pistole Kriminal" or Pistol for Undercover Police was made for concealment. While in my believe, both pistols are excellent pistols, the PPK has the advantage of the DA instead of the SA. Unless you like to carry it as cocked and locked, the decision is yours. Somethings I might add is that on my S&W model, the Walther tracks are gone, thank goodness. I have tried reloads and stock, my PPK/S has not jammed once. Knock on wood. And for the ammo that I carry; you better believe that I'll try out a box or two of it before I place my life on it. Another note, I got lucky and picked up a Crimson Trace Laser grip for mine. Don't know why, Crimson Trace stop making it? But there are some out there.

Good Luck and Good Shooting
