Walther PPK/S – a much needed cleaning

Posted on by

Now that I have my weapons permit I decided to go to the gun range with a good friend of mine. I took my Walther PPK/S and let her loose. It’s a 9mm .380 cal killing machine.

At the range it jammed on me several times for which I remembered I never cleaned and oiled it. I went to S.P.D. in Smyrna where I bought a Classic Universal Cleaning Kit.

I don’t know much about the Walther so I decided to get the aid of good ol’ YouTube. I found a video that gave me specific instructions on how to disassemble and what parts needed to be oiled and cleaned.

I was a bit nervous but once I broke it apart it became easy and fun. The kit was a huge help because it had everything I needed from Gun Oil, rods, patches, a brush and a soft rag.

Disassembled and mid-way through cleaning

Spent a lot of time cleaning and oiling all the nooks and crannies

Now my baby is well cleaned and lubricated and ready to fire.

Wanna know more about this fine firearm?

  1. I drop a comment when I especially enjoy a article on a website or if I have something to contribute to the discussion. It is triggered by the fire communicated in the article I browsed. And on this article %BLOGTITLE%. I was excited enough to create a comment 😉 I do have 2 questions for you if it’s okay. Could it be just me or do a few of the remarks appear like coming from brain dead folks? 😛 And, if you are posting at additional places, I’d like to keep up with anything new you have to post. Could you list all of all your social pages like your linkedin profile, Facebook page or twitter feed?
