I have inherited my grandfathers Walther PPK. Can anyone recommend a type of holster for CCW. I am relatively new to CCW with my LTCF

I would check out the Galco "Scout" or "Waistband" models. Galco does make very high quality stuff and their costumer service is very very good.

I carry my PPK in a Desantis Nemesis pocket holster and love it. It makes a great pocket gun due to the small size.

I agree-- for pocket carry I use the DeSantis Nemesis.

For OWB carry I use the-now-discontinued DeSantis Speed Scabbard.

Stay well.

I must correct my previous post!!

The DeSantis Speed Scabbard for the Walther PPK is not discontinued.

This leather holster is still very much available.

Stay well.

Seems a bit heavy and wide for pocket carry. At least for me it would be.

Despite your reservations, pocket carry of the Walther PPK (NOT the PPK/S) has been very comfortable for me.

So much so that after pocket carrying it for the last six months, I sometimes have to check if it is still there!!

Stay well.
