Walther PPK restoration

avakadava · July 18, 2019, 06:10 PM

I recently came across a WWII Walther PPK that was butchered up. I would like to restore it to original 1942 condition. I tried Turnbull but the person that worked on these older guns has passed on. Does anyone know of a gunsmith that can do an accurate restoration?

Thanks,

Dan

Try M&M Gunsmithing, LaRocca Gunworks and Cylinder & Slide.

Good luck.

Ron's Guns is often considered to be near the level of Turnbull for restoration work....

M&M Gunsmithing was a longtime Interarms gunsmith and knows the Walther's very well. You might talk to him.....
