My very first handgun memory is of my dad's PP bring back from the war. The near hydraulic(?) snick of the slide moving on the frame (and then not knowing what to do when the slide locked back). I was told a brother-in-law borrowed it for home protection and it was later stolen from their house.
I have it that the PP (Police Pistol) and K (k(c)riminal, we would say detective) were designed as .32 ACP. Any other caliber is something of a compromise.
As David would say, I'll play.
One of my better buys at the pawn shop.
