Only from 1986 onward, until the late 1990s, were Walther PP-series pistols once again made in Germany — at Walther’s manufacturing facility in Ulm.

hmmmm
I have two post war .22 PPK's (as is the one in the photo). The near new condition one is a soulless Manurhin, black semi-thumb rest grips.
As for the 20%er with nice brown grips, if it didn't have made in West Germany stamped on it, I would have said it was pre-war.
Is there a site to look up serial #'s for the post war guns?
