PPK frame holding fixture
« on: September 15, 2010, 02:24:33 PM »
Search as I may I have been unsuccessful in finding a gun smithing frame holding fixture for the Walther PPK to replace the pitted barrel. There are many
fixtures for the venerable .45 auto. Has any one made one, found one, or seen one.
Thank you for guidance.

Sounds like that's a good project, to build a fixture based on what a .45 auto looks like.

I did a quick search on Brownells site. I see they have the 1911 frame fixture. Looks like it would be something simple to make yourself, unless you don't have a lathe or mill.
