Ohio Handgun Recall Attorney

Due to drop fire concerns in 2018, Walther issued a large recall on PPS M2 models, following manufacturing safety concerns. Defective handguns and accidental discharge accidents have been a growing concern for some time, and more models are recalled each year following accidents and injuries.

Safety Recalls were issued in November 2018 for Walther PPS M2 Pistols, though M1 models could also be affected. Walther Arms, Inc. discovered the unintentional discharge safety issue with the PPS M2 pistols and voluntarily recalled thousands of weapons.

Walther stated that under certain conditions, some pistols may accidentally fire when dropped. If consumers have one of the Walther handguns, they are urged to refrain from use until it is serviced. After the Walther PPS recall, all upgraded guns have a small dot milled into the magazine well opening.
