and why did you buy this one?

Every sub compact I have ever purchased was intended to be used as my carry. When buying a gun you intend to carry, at least for me, aesthetics are not even a consideration.

seriously, I mean how many people own glocks? I hate the way they look, it's like a frikin children's block of metal.

My first Walther. It's ultra compact, slimmer than any Glock. Kahr sized. 9mm.

They just came out a couple weeks ago, this one is a first edition, serial number 216.

I justified this purchase because my favorite carry peice, an HK USP Compact .357sig, took a giant crap for no reason the other day. It's a Variant 1, and turned itself into a double action only, fully automatic pistol. :Q This is a gun with about 500 rounds through it. An $800 with only about 500 rounds through it. My HK confidence is shaken.

Anyway, I'm willing to field any questions or comments about the new Walther PPS. I know it's ugly as sin, but it's tiny.

I like :D

How much? My Walther P99M needs a friend.

my vote is on he never tried to call them or can't because it was an illegal handgun.

A .357 sig machine pistol? You'd have to be Robocop to use that. Wait... are you Robocop? Holy shit, I loved you in Robocop, Robocop.

I pay $650. Only one available in the Dallas area. Plus $8.95 for a cheap IWB holster that works pretty well until real holsters become available.
