Photo 1: Walther PP "Polizeipistole" 7.65MM or 9MM Kurz (.22 LR,.32 ACP or .380 ACP)

Photo 2: Walther PPK "Polizeipistole Kurz"(short) 7.65MM or 9MM Kurz (.22 LR,.32 ACP or .380 ACP)

Photo 3: Walther P.38 9MM Parabellum (9MM Luger) Some commercial variations were made in .22LR and 7.65 Parabellum (.30 Luger) Post war version is classified as P.1.

Ron,
PPK stands for Polizeipistole Kriminal, not kurz.
This is a common mistake.
