Found a parts kit on Gunbroker. Bought a frame from Buymilsurp. Found buffalo horn grips someone had attempted to fit on a PPKs on Ebay.

There's a clipdraw on the other side, so function is 100%.

Did you build it as a 380acp or a 9x18 Mak? I have an R61 but it is 380acp and I want to convert it to 9mmMak. Where did you get the barrel?

The barrel came with the parts kit and was 9X18. I don't know of a source for a barrel as a separate part.

Another nice find, and again I really like those grips, glad to see someone else likes a "clipdraw" I have had one on one of my P-64's for some time.

I have that one and one on an SMC380.

Doubletap, Numrich has slides. That, a PA63, and some work will make one, and keep you busy for a couple of hours.
