No, 3.66", pic is cut short.  Walther PK380, fun plinker, I've had one several years now, pretty sure mine is not subject to the recall for the manual safety issue, my s/n is 37k something  -

If you can get one outside the recall issue go for it, I like mine.

  I'm screwed I can't buy one for my daughter till she gets a permit.I called the state of Conn. and was advised that I can't even give her my old gun unless I send it from a dealer to a dealer and that's the only way it's going to happen.

Yeah this restriction on interstate commerce is a joke, no reason for it, either you can own or you can't, what a load!  Government has no right to interfere!

Oh, and if you get this, she will need her hubby to help with the take-down, it takes a silly little notched hard plastic tool to turn the recessed latch to remove the slide, and the main spring is long, I have strong hands and can stretch that puppy around the pin and stick it all back together, gals likely won't be able to.  I picked up a small tool somewhere that I was able to file the notch open a little wider that does the same job as the plastic take-down key, I can dig out the info on that if you want, I like have a more durable backup to a piece of plastic.

The manual isn't much, here's a pdf -

Testing Pan's gif!
“My mission today is to go forth and tell people about why I follow Christ and also what the Bible teaches, and part of that teaching is that women and men are meant to be together.

“However, I would never treat anyone with disrespect just because they are different from me. We are all created by the Almighty and like Him, I love all of humanity. We would all be better off if we loved God and loved each other.”
Phil Robertson an elder in the church of Christ
