>>32835049
the .40s arent going anywhere, id hold out if you really want a 9mm
.40 isnt that bad though and the p99 is a sweet shooter regardless

I actually might have a chance to get one super cheap i the near future. My friend's dad bought one forever ago and has done anything with it, and isn't even able to keep it in the house. Pretty much at this point he's trying to get rid of it.
I'm assuming it's a Gen 1, is there anything to look out for? I have a P22 and the frame is very similar.

Filmwise he switched to the P99 in the Brosnan era during Tomorrow Never Dies, the return to the PPK happens in the Craig era with Skyfall really putting emphasis on the gun as part of its nostalgia boner but the P99 is his go to weapon for the bulk of Casino Royale.

Id get the 40 because then you can fire this (pic related). Wadcutters are devastating, more than hollowpoints, and they punch clean holes in targets on the range.

However I wish weapons built on 9mm with a 40cal version would actually be 10% bigger in magazine and grip so it could have the same capacity.

Nope, USA. In fact, the only mainland country in western Europe I know of that allows suppressors is Germany, and only for hunting calibers when hunting. That means a 22LR can would not be allowed.
Italy is the opposite, where it's completely allowed except for hunting.
In the UK, well we know about the UK.
Supposedly they are technically illegal but ubiquitous in Poland.

Nope, just good ol' NFA-compliant USA.

That picture doesn't do it justice, but the PPK/S has a longer grip. Compare a non-S&W PPK vs. a S&W PPK/S and you'll see just how fucking ugly that accident is.

>>32840226
They're identical in every way, its just what you want out of the caliber. Most people want a .380 because its bigger and is feasible as a defensive weapon. .32 ACP is smaller and less powerful. It holds more ammo and is easier to control though, but you might as well only use FMJ because expanding rounds don't penetrate as well.

In the books a PPK in .32 was chosen because the author thought that .32 ACP would be available virtually anywhere in the world. At the time it was one of the most popular handgun cartridges in existence and more handguns have been chambered in it than any other caliber. PPK specifically, your guess is as good as mine. No idea why not a Mauser HSC or something, but I'm glad it was the PPK.

The P99 Gen III is better than the PPQ. It has double action capability, has one standardized magazine, more rounded on the edges for carry, big enough for duty, better single action trigger, better ergos (and if you prefer the PPQ texture, P99Q). All of the benefits of a striker gun, all of the benefits of a DA/SA, all of the benefits of a compact, all of the benefits of a full-sized. In terms of versatility, the P99 is superior.

>>32840447

Unless you've got at least 700 ft pounds energy doesnt mean shit

penetration is what matters and
penetration =/= energy

(penetration is more associated with momentum, which benefits more from mass than velocity)

32 is okay but it would only be great if its the kinda thing that penetrates into meat as far as it'll go (eg, armor piercing).

Effectively like shooting someone with a .22 except the gun is More Reliable (thank you mister browning).

>>32840374
The .25acp doesnt penetrate well, its like a pellet gun (pellet guns can kill though).

But bond knew how to shoot people in the neck and the eye socket, and hit them in the skull in a way that wouldnt bounce off.

Bond was furious over being told to upgrade, that .25acp was so tiny and sweet. But ultimately it was for the best.

>>32840599

>>32840728
Compared to a G19 the USP Compacts are thicker, heavier, hold fewer rounds, are more blocky and have a higher bore axis. They aren't bad guns, but they aren't great compacts either. P99 is superior.

>>32840784
USP holds 2 fewer rounds
Im working on making my mags 15 rounds
The USP being heavier is better
The Glock has too much barrel flip comparatively
The heavier slide on the USP corrects this
The USP was designed to be a used by military and SpecOps, the P99 was not
You are confused on which is superior

>>32840738
You can rechamber 32 ACP to 32 NAA or you could make a new chamber and do that, but I barely trust umarex barrels to not explode with straight wall 380, nevermind a bottleneck 380 derivative umarex barrel on a random chamber with a circumferential weld ground flush.

Damn. Had the opportunity to pick one up at a show but didn't like how it felt in the hand. Another one of those things where you never expect them to dry up, now they're rare as hell, at least until Walther unfucks their legal department.

So have these things been discontinued or what?
I haven't seen full sized 9mm P99s in stock anywhere for a while.

>>32840843
Umarex doesn't make the PPK, S&W does nowadays. I'd modify an Interarms if I could get one.

>>32840928
S&W discontinued production of them in 32 ACP in 2013.

>>32840923
Not discontinued, Walther's 2017 catalog still includes them. None of the company reps are saying much otherwise.

A lot of Walther stuff is stuck in licence hell with the German government. The P99 is a joint venture with S&W, with some of the parts made in Germany. The PPK/S is different because it's 100% made ("made") by S&W.

>>32840892
I shoot them every week, I know the G19 has more recoil
The SAS is a bunch of fags and they wish they could have USPs
USP would be in use by mitaries if it didnt cost more than anything else
It costs more because it took more to design and build it

>>32840923
Walther only imports them twice a year. Then the distributors try to spread them out and the demand is even bigger than the scarcity so you'll see the MSRP of $550 way driven up if you even find them.

>>32840971
I know, and you'd need a .380 frame for a .32 NAA conversion anyway.

>>32841000

Do they import on a set schedule or does it vary by year? I'll just try to catch them then.

A week later a guy came into the shop I was working at asking if we could get one because some asshole bought the only one at the other store. The picture he showed me was my serial number lol

Single stack 9mm to carry, Double stack 9mm for the range.

>>32841353
fair enough
>>32841334
i dunno, I just like to have different guns with different gun food personally, to each their own

I might do the same with AR uppers and whatnot

>I like Walther and James Bond
Why not a PPK then? 95% of Bond appearances use PPK's.

>>32841389
he talking about his pistols. he might have 2 other pistols and one rifle and one shotgun...you never know. expanding cost money and new flavors with the same basic ingredients saves on money.

>>32841411
>95%
not really, but they're unobtanium. A P99 is easier to find for less money and more practical for most folks I'd say

>>32840079
>using wadcutters for anything but the intended purpose of holepunching at range

NOT EVERYTHING IS MADE OF PAPER.

>>32841067
How hard is it to find attachments for Gen Is? It looks like they use a proprietary rail, and I can't find any sort of adapters for them.

>>32835049
Yes, it's my favorite out of all my hgs, literally 0 malfunctions after 700 reds and very accurate with the da/sa trigger, plus the decocker is well done

There were only two generations of P99.

The first generation is the best looking one, the one James Bond uses. It's characterized by its proprietary rail, trigger guard with ski hump and 16-round magazines. It's available only in DA/SA.

Second generation has a Weaver rail, a different trigger guard, longer levers on the mag release, bigger serrations on the slide, 15-round magazines (why the heck, did they lower mag capacity - it was one thing the P99 had better than the Glock 19) and if I'm not mistaken an ambidextrous slide release. It's available in different variation (AS, DAO, QA action, full-size or compact...).

Then, there are all those other abortions based on the P99 - the SW99 (reviews say that the 9mm is ok, but the .40S&W are a pile of junk), the Polish P99 with baroque grip texture (Walther kept it on the PPQ to make its aesthetic even more unappealing), and there's also some kind of Americano-Germano-Jewish P99 clone made by MRI.

I bought my P99 in 2000 and shot a few thousand rounds through it (all FMJ). Had a few malfunctions all at the beginning in my second or third time at the range (was probably limp-wristing) and that's all. What surprised me, was that last year I noticed micro-cracks in the backstrap. When I took it off, I saw that it was completely broken (the two extra back straps had no problem). Probably the rubber had aged due to a combination of sweat, CLP, sunlight, and jizz as the backstraps that had never moved from the gun case were still in perfect condition. I ended up ordering a new backstrap from a gunstore - Walther didn't want to send me one, what a bunch of cheap bastards.

>why the heck, did they lower mag capacity
Wait what? So the mags of a gen 1 P99 are different than gen 2? Ah shit I didn't know that. Do the gen 2 mags fit a gen 1? If not I'm gonna have to reconsider my search for a gen 1 for awhile.

>>32846066
Gen 1 and gen 2 mags seem to be fully compatible (my google-fu is strong and I found nothing saying the opposite). SW99 and PPQ M1 mags also seem to fit - which is a good thing because original Mec-Gar mags are impossible to find.

>>32845662
So gen 1 is GOAT? I was considering an AS, should I be looking for gen 1?

W2c gen 1 P99's?

>>32846262
What the fuck is that suppose to mean?

>>32846235
Gen 1 P99 are the best looking ones, they have two problems, though. One, finding a decent holster is difficult (Sickinger has one, Fobus has one, Serpa had one, and that's about all I know) - most holsters (IMI, Blackhawk, some Serpa...) are for Gen 2. The other problem, is that you cannot mount any accessories because of the proprietary rail. I think that IMI or CAA has an adapter, but if you use it, forget about standard holsters.

>>32846463
It's a shame you can't just find spare gen 1 slides sitting around. A current gen p99 with the looks of the gen 1 slide sounds just about perfect.

>>32845662
There are three and a lot of that is just wrong.

Gen I - ski hump, proprietary rail, 16-rd mags some minor differences in slide cuts, sights, etc.

Gen II - standard rail, rounded trigger guard, new style serations, updated frame and slide, 15-round mags were used because the 16-rounders were found generally unreliable.

Gen III - identical to Gen II guns, but now incorporates the longer magazine paddle and the ambi slide release option.

There were also some transitional guns some people call Gen 1.5 with various bits and pieces between the two. The P99Q and P99 RAD are both Walther offerings using Walther's PPQ style frame, it wasn't the Poles or the Dutch that came up with it, but rather an LEO-exclusive offering from the factory. They weren't even available until after the PPQ's success. Basically they're just a P99 trigger assembly in a PPQ frame. Among other copies, the MR9, SW99, and TP9 are some of the most well-known knockoffs.

They're completely compatible, Gen I and II mags, MR9 mags, SW99 mags, and PPQ M1 mags. The original magazines aren't hard to find at all, just generally unreliable.

These things were on sale for $15 each over the summer.

Gen I for A E S T H E T I C, Gen III for practicality. >>32846463 is mostly right, if you want to mount a light or something Gen I's are trash. Holsters aren't that bad to find, Alien Gear is another manufacturer of them. As for actual carry, the rounded corners of the Gen II frame and slide is nice. The AS model is the only one they currently produce and all Gen I's were DA/SA, so unless you find a Gen II you won't even have to double check.

>>32846463

I'm asking where the fuck do you buy gen 1 P99's

>>32848463
Armslist, Gunbroker, used guns @ LGS

>>32848435
There any sort of rail adapter for gen 1 that I could get? I'd like a p99 for home defense and carry but the difficulty in mounting a light makes the gen 3 seem much more appealing, a e s t h e t i c s aside.

>>32848435
What's those shitty mags made by Walther? The P99 mags, which are perfectly reliable, are made by Mecgar and have a black follower.

S&W mags. No wonder they are unreliable.
