    hi m8,this gun is well worth having over the c11,the c11 is'nt bad,but its got an overall "quality" to it that makes it feel as cheap as it is,the Walther however is awesome, real fun gun, well worth every penny you spend on it,its no use spending money on acc's for this gun because its no good for real target shooting but its ace for plinking,the power is more than enuf to smash bottles at a reasonable distance and that kind shows how good the accuracy is too...anyway,i think its definatly worth spending the little extra on the PPK/S 'cus its just better!
    Hope this helps you decision and if it doesnt, email me at joeldenman3696@hotmail.com for any info you need on the Walther

    If the PPK/s had a rifled barrel you would not question it's accuracy. With it's smooth bore barrel we cannot expect the accuracy of a rifled barrel but It is all about how you shoot it. I was amazed at the power of this small pistol. Have you thought of putting a stronger of extra spring in it under the barrel?. After the second World War Germany was not allowed to make firearms so they concentrated on Air weapons instead and produced the Feinwerkbau Pistols that were standard Olympic Match Pistols for many years. And the Walther name is in the top brand names of Pistols. Walther barrels are fitted to other brands of Air Pistols. For the money the PPK/s is hard to better. AT 30 feet and a full CO2 capsul the BB shot are embedded into the plaster on my walls when I miss the target, and that is powerful enough for me.

    I have had considerable experience with this air pistol here in the USA. I have purchased eight of them in the last three years. We use them during the summer as a fun gun for new shooters ages 10-14.

    As mentioned before, this gun does not win any prizes for accuracy. We shoot at a 50 foot range and generally use "soda cans" or paper cups as targets. At 50 feet it is just about impossible to hit either target. At 25 feet there is no problem.

    "Power" is enough to push through the side of an aluminum can and knock it over.

    We have found these guns to be very reliable. I've yet to have one jam. The plastic magazines seem flimsy but have held up well. The guns themselves hold together only one season, but in that season each gun will fire thousands and thousands of rounds. At US$75 each we are quite satisfied.
