WALTHER- follow up

First, thanks to all who provided help and useful information.Orignial message alluded to the condition of my PPK that jammed and the magazine withdrew from the frame when underfire.Upshot-Walther Arms is defunked; Smith and Wesson now producing and repairing Walthers. S&W was very professional. They repaired the failed mag release catch and honed down another malfunction; shipping to and from was paid by S&W and repair cost was fair.I am, however disappointed in Walther, Virginia Arms; my PPK was purchased new, all recommended shooting guideline were applied, and the gun failed to operate out of the box.It is now fully functional and with its repair, a reliable small framed gun that is adequate for defense carry .
