About the Cartridge

Designed by John Browning and introduced by Fabrique Nationale of Belgium, this cartridge has achieved world-wide acceptance and has even been adopted as the standard pistol cartridge by several governments. One reason for the round's success is that it is the largest practical cartridge that can be easily adapted to small automatic pocket pistols. Ballistics fall far short of even the 9mm Luger, but still prove adequate for most self-defense situations. The round has established quite a niche position in this role, often being chosen over more traditional small calibers such as the .25 and .32 Autos.

Holster

I recommend a Sig 223 holster as the profile is very similar and the variety and availability is better.

Excellent handgun and perfect conceal carry with the right holster.Made of German Krupp Steel and a better and more reliable and higher capacity version of the PPK/S/s.Never James no misfires unlike the Walther.Half the price of a PPK/S and stock factory Packmeyer style grips.
