What is the (very clever) Lignose "Einhand" Pistol?

This video discusses the iconic Walther PPK, a handgun that set the standard for concealed carry pocket pistols. The speaker details its history, including its invention in 1929 (PP) and 1931 (PPK), its association with James Bond, and its various chamberings.

The video concludes by addressing Walther's announcement of a multi-year pause on PPK production, attributing it to a focus on modern handguns and potentially lower profit margins on the PPK.
