The Walther CCP was introduced in March 2014. [1] It is available chambered in 9×19mm Parabellum. [2] [3] In September 2018 Walther introduced the updated CCP M2 onto the market. Its most significant upgrade was a take-down lever that eased the field stripping, which was often cited as original M1 design's biggest shortcoming. [4] [5] [6]

The Walther Model 8 was a 6.35mm single-action pocket pistol manufactured by Carl Walther GmbH between 1920 and 1940. It was fed by an 8-round magazine and chambered in .25 ACP . The Model 8 is a blowback pistol with a concealed hammer and has several design features that were innovative for Walther, including fewer parts and an easier disassembly.
The PPX features a grip frame designed according to other ergonomic Walther grips such as the one found on the PPQ. However, the PPX's frame lacks the interchangeable backstraps of other Walther designs. The pistol frame has an integral Picatinny rail below the barrel. A small lanyard hole is molded into the frame behind the magazine well.
Walther Model 8 pocket pistol, 1926. It was not until 1908 that, under the initiative of Fritz Walther, the oldest son of Carl Walther, they began to make pistols. Models 1 to 5 and 7 to 9 were in calibers .25 ACP (6.35mm) and .32 ACP (7.65mm). The Model 6 was Walther's first attempt at a 9mm Luger pistol.
Walther addressed this situation by combining the PP's frame with the PPK's barrel and slide to create a pistol that weighed slightly more than the PPK. [10] The additional ounce or two of weight of the PPK/S compared to the PPK was sufficient to provide the extra needed import points.
The slide, barrel, and internal frame are steel, and the grip is polymer for reduced weight. Magazines are single-stack design holding 8 rounds giving the gun an 8+1 capacity; they are unique to the PK380, which will not accept any other magazines than the #505600. This gun also includes an accessory rail for mounting lights and lasers.
The unique and ergonomic grip of this pistol was designed by the renowned Swiss match pistol grip designer, Cesare Morini. Much like the P99, the pistol comes with three varying rear grip inserts designed to accommodate various hand shapes and sizes; this feature permits most shooters a comfortable and efficient grip on the firearm.
