A Walther PPK pistol used by the character Silvio Dante, portrayed by Steven Van Zandt, in the award-winning series The Sopranos (1999-2007). Van Zandt used the weapon in “The Blue Comet” (Season 6, Episode 20) during the climactic battle in the parking lot of the Bada Bing when Silvio and Patsy Parisi are ambushed by two of Phil Leotardo’s hit men as they attempt to drive away. Silvio pulls the Walther from his briefcase to return fire and is struck several times by the hit men’s bullets and loses consciousness as Patsy flees into the woods behind the Bada Bing amidst a hail of gunfire.
