 DgZ - Walther PPK Slidelock Mod   (Site not responding. Last check: )
It's modeled after, unsurprisingly, the Walther PPK, which is famous not only as James Bond's original gun but is also a groundbreaker in the field of firearms by virtue of the fact that is one of the (if not the) first semiautomatic offering both single and double action firing.
In the PPK's case, it has a slide lock to prevent the user from running out of ammo and then going click-click-click with the double action trigger before he realizes his magazine is empty - And possibly wasting enough time to get himself killed in a firefight.
If you own a real Walther PPK, do not attempt this modification on it, because the stakes involved with a firearm are much higher than with a BB gun.

The PPK was developed in 1931 and the PP was developed in 1929.
The PPK/S is fatter and slightly longer in the pistol grip (PPK/S holds one more round than the PPK); it is the slide and barrel of the PPK mounted on the PP frame.
What’s nice about the PPK/S is the hammer; once decocked it doesn’t rest directly on the magazine’s valve, meaning a knock or pressure on the hammer won’t send a BB down the barrel.
