Seiger Said:
"Bond had his M34 pulled and replaced by the PPK in one of the movies that I personally saw. Right now, the name excapes me. It was a M34, not the 418".
The confusion lies in that although it was a model 34, which "Q" took from Bond in the movie, the dialog, (and the original novel) mentions that the Beretta was a .25 caliber.
"Q" mentions that the PPK is replacing the Beretta because the PPK is caliber .32 with an impact "like a brick through a plate-glass window".
While a .32 is an improvement over a .25, both calibers are marginal if not laughable by today's self defense ballisctic standards, (and yes, I appreciate that they are both better than having nothing at all).
