Intro: Knex Walther PPK Model Instructions

Hello! You maybe saw this pistol in my lmg slideshow, and i got an request to post it. So here it is!:
Some info about the pistol itself:
The walther Polizei Pistole Kriminalmodel is an compact, semi automatic pistol. The name stands for Police Pistol Detectivemodel. The pistol is famous for it's use by James Bond, and this pistol was used by mr. Hitler to shoot himself. Anyway, enough info, let's go to the building! sorry if some photo's are blurry, but they were taken by my ipod.

STEP 1: Build Everything!

this is everything. Asembly and banding is the next step
pic 1+2: every part of the gun
Pic 3: sideplates, build 2 times
Pic 4: blurry handle, not that hard
pic 4-9: handle close-ups

STEP 2: Asembly!

Time to build your gun!

STEP 3: Finished!

yay! you finished your own ppk model, tell me if you like it, and if you mod it or so, show me a photo and i'll include it here!

>model

Nope.
The real one is semi-automatic, however.

I remember making many Walther PPK models that did fire and were the same size as this. The last one I had made shot about 40 ft. and was overall just plain awesome. About a year before I joined instructables, I dismantled it. D: I wish I hadn't...

Cool, too bad you broke them up already. I'll see if I can remake this one, and make it shoot

That would be absolutely amazing. If you do so and post instructions, I'll definitely build it!

dr. richtofen 10 years ago

I'll try, though it will be hard (especially for me, as I most of the time suck in making compact firing mechanisms)

Hey! Something just dawned on me! We could do a collaboration; you could work on the looks (frame, trigger guard, etc.) and I could work on the firing mechanism. That way, we're both using our areas of expertise to make an awesome model! You'd get like 70% credit; the looks are what really make a model.  I understand completely if you want to do it on your own, though.  'Tis just an idea, good sir.

dr. richtofen 10 years ago

Sounds like a plan!
But I'd make the credits 50/50 though, as the mechanism is also important.

dr. richtofen 10 years ago

Hmm, I see two options.
1: You build a mechanism, take some photos of it, and send them to me (on my orangeboard most likely). Then I'll try to build the body around it.
2: I build a body, probably different from this one, and send some photos to you. Then you try to fit a mech in

DarkOwlProductions 10 years ago

I think option two seems the most logical. Just try to keep in mind that a mechanism will be fit into it, and it'll be all good. :3 (Maybe leave a hollow space or something.)

Thanks! Yeah, this gun is a little small to put a firing mechanism in...

thinking of building but have two questions: does it have a slide and does it have a removable mag?

dr. richtofen 12 years ago

If you want those two things, maybe look at my most recent instructable.
