Description
This is a genuine Walther factory magazine engineered specifically for the PPK/S .380 ACP. With a 7-round capacity, it strikes the right balance for the PPK/S platform, giving you enough firepower while keeping the gun's compact profile intact. The magazine comes equipped with a removable polymer baseplate that includes an ergonomic finger rest, making a noticeable difference in handling and control during reloads, especially if you're wearing gloves or have larger hands.
The build quality speaks for itself. You're looking at a stainless steel body with a nickel-plated finish that resists corrosion and keeps everything running smoothly over time. Inside, a high-tensile steel spring and stainless steel follower ensure reliable feeding every time. The wide-cut witness holes are machined large enough to give you a quick visual round count at a glance, whether you're at the range or checking your supply.
PPK/S Magazine Design and Compatibility
If you own a PPK/S, pay attention here: PPK and PPK/S magazines are not interchangeable. The PPK/S has a longer frame, and this magazine is engineered to match those specs. A standard PPK magazine won't feed reliably in your PPK/S, and forcing it can cause feeding issues. With this factory original, you get the precision fit Walther designed for your specific pistol.
Magazine and Spare Capacity Strategy
Walther built these to factory tolerances, meaning no guessing about whether it's going to work. Whether you're stocking spares for range sessions or carrying a backup, having multiple factory magazines is the smart approach. Since the magazine is the primary conduit for ammunition feeding into the chamber, any inconsistency here can lead to frustrating malfunctions. Stick with factory specs, and you avoid that problem altogether.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will this PPK/S magazine work in my standard PPK?
No. The PPK and PPK/S have different frame lengths, and magazines are not interchangeable between the two models. The PPK/S magazine is longer and designed for the PPK/S frame specifically. Using the wrong magazine can result in feeding issues or improper fit. Always verify your pistol model before purchasing.
What makes the finger rest useful?
The ergonomic polymer finger rest on the baseplate gives your pinky finger a place to grip when reloading, improving control and handling speed. It's especially helpful if you have larger hands or wear gloves during shooting. The removable design also means you can take the baseplate off for quick cleaning and maintenance.
How do I know the round count when the magazine is loaded?
Walther machined large witness holes along the side of the magazine body so you can see how many rounds you have at a glance. This is helpful when you're at the range or checking inventory in your gear.
Can I use this magazine right out of the box?
Yes, but be aware that new magazines sometimes have stiff springs. You may find them slightly difficult to load to full capacity until the spring breaks in a bit. This is normal and not a defect. After a few range sessions, the spring will loosen slightly and loading becomes smoother.
