Walther PPS M2 Recall

#1

Post by jason812 »

I received an email from the Walther newsletter regarding a recall for PPS M2's. Here's the info:
Important Safety Recall
NOVEMBER 2018 Walther PPS M2 Pistols

Walther Arms, Inc. has recently discovered a potential safety issue with certain PPS M2 pistols. Walther is voluntarily initiating a recall to protect the safety of its customers because under certain conditions it is possible that some of these pistols may fire when dropped.

Please do not load or fire your Walther PPS M2 pistol and contact us immediately to arrange to have your pistol upgraded free of charge.

AN3020 - AN9999
AO0000 - AO9999
AP0000 - AP9999
AQ0000 - AQ9999
AR0000 - AR9999
AS0000 - AS9999
AT0000 - AT9999
AU0000 - AU7502


If your Serial Number is not listed above it is NOT affected by the Recall.

In certain extreme situations, the law is inadequate. In order to shame its inadequacy, it is necessary to act outside the law to pursue a natural justice.

My wife really likes her Walther PPS M2 LE. Unfortunately, it is in the recall group. I've printed out the shipping label and will be sending it off soon. She will have to make do with her Ruger LCR .38.

Sent mine off a couple of days ago. Their recall materials said turnaround should be 6-8 weeks.

Stay aware and engaged. Awareness buys time; time buys options. Survival may require moving quickly past the Observe, Orient and Decide steps to ACT.

Did you send it in the original plastic case?

I packaged mine in the original black case within a box. No magazines or anything other than the gun itself in the case.

Yep, that is my plan based on what I read on the Walther Arms site. Thanks!
