It definitely has some cool factor, but not enough to warrant the price tag. I'm happy with my Bersa Thunder CC. I took it to the range along side my buddy's PPK, and we both preferred the Bersa in just about every way. When compared side by side, they are all but identical in every dimension, but the Thunder CC weighs considerably less, and holds 2 more rounds. It also doesn't give me slide bite. I can't say that for the PPK - one mag in, and I was literally dripping blood. The only way I could get the PPK to stop biting me was to hold it so low on the grip that I was in serious danger of limpwristing. Of course, I have big meaty hands, so YMMV. Definitely not worth the price tag, IMHO.
