Ronadl Reagan's pistol ???
Hello.
I note in a book about the life of former President Ronald Reagan, that he is said to have carried a pistol, on a regular basis, before, during and after said Presidency.
The mention of the pistol comes only in the foot notes of the book, which states that this was a 1934 Walther PPK in .380auto.
Can anyone please offer any positive confirmation, that the pistol was a PPK?
Many thanks, Pete.

Here's a link to a Tom Gresham radio show about Reagan using a 1911 to help out a woman who was being robbed on the street. This was when he was a sportscaster in Des Moines in the 1930s. It's not a "live" link so you'll have to cut and paste.
