Casino Royale | Bond 22
After almost losing his life to Rosa Klebb in From Russia with Love due to a silencer catching in the holster, at the beginning of Dr No we find M asking the armourer, Major Boothroyd, to recommend an alternative.
His answer was to replace Bond's beloved Beretta with a 7.65mm Walther PPK, with a Smith & Wesson Centennial Airweight .38 for use when "something bigger" is required.
Boothroyd praised the Walther for its light trigger pull and the ability to obtain ammunition for it anywhere in the world. He critisised the Beretta for being "a lady's gun" and underpowered. Despite Bond's criticisms of the Walther, he used it successfully on many missions after. The Smith & Wesson is hammerless to avoid getting caught on clothing and to keep the weight down holds only 5 cartridges.
I believe it was a Walther P99
