I’m considering a PPK and see that there are a few varieties in the market. None of them are going to break the bank but I thought I’d eee if there were any versions considered better than the rest? I’m not expecting one hole accuracy, more concerned with durability and maybe overall fit/finish and feel.

I had one of the Umarex versions for a few months on a loan.
Power is low, accuracy acceptable at ten paces. It chronied at 250-275 fps depending on what b.b. was used.
Snappy blow-back- can't really call it a recoiling blow back, but you know the slide is doing it's thing.
The tiny Umarex laser came with it at that time- just the basic on/off sw. on the laser body. It was a lot of fun to shoot with that laser- even more fun to have the cats chase after the laser dot. Some serious acrobatics there :mrgreen:

It's been a long time since I've seen one packaged with the laser.

You can actually aim the thing by watching where the BB is going instead of using the sights.
It's a fun little pistol.

You can’t buy a single airgun for everything. Golfers use many different clubs, airgunners need more than one gun

I was going to suggest a pre-war German gun... then I realized, we're talking airguns :drinkers:
