You’re probably old enough to still prefer a steel framed gun. And let’s go ahead and call a spade a spade; polymer means plastic. I would encourage anyone from new shooters to experienced to give one a try here with us at the Range of Richfield. I sincerely hope that these guns see an increase in third party support as they absolutely deserve the recognition. The predecessor to the PPQ 22 is the P22, a pistol which seems to have Walther ppq 9mm for sale a mixed history of its own. The ergonomics and controls are all the same, but the 22 model does not have a removable back pane
Then there are the polymer sights which come standard on most of the models. Last is the Q5 Match, a slightly tweaked 5″ barreled model which also has adjustable sights and is optic ready and features a distinct blue trigger and lightening cuts within the slide. If there’s a problem, I’ll inform you but I’m not evaluating these guns for extreme accuracy. With a lot of our time spent in a saltwater environment we discovered the sights would rust. The polymer pistol I carried in the field had one small Achilles heel that we quickly discovered. Because of its high-quality Walther barrel and the ultra-smooth Quick Defense Trigger this pistol most definitely does not lack accurac
You’ve probably disliked plastic framed pistols since you first saw them. One final point of consideration is how well these pistols will hold up with time, use, and exposure to the elements. The Q4 and Q5 models are spared from the ‘low-end’ windage adjustable only sights and Walther’s website has a version of the M2 listed with ‘W/XS F8 night sights’ which look to be a major improvement. Clear the pistol then drop the striker by pulling the trigger. It is what every striker-fired pistol strives to be. The Range Hou
What Gun Is That? How Experts Identify Firearms from Photos and Video Some sights have been reported to change the point of aim but I’ve outfitted both of mine with Trijicon three dot night sights originally made for the P99 and they’ve been dead-on. On the upside sights for the Walther P99 will fit the PPQ’s and they are by far the easiest sights to replace on any handgun I have ever seen. There’s no divot to protect the paint and I’ve personally had some of these sights get beat up in short order. Most of the PPQ’s come with some really flimsy sights which have three white dots painted right on the trailing edge. All of the newer pistols feature polygonal rifling, though I have seen an earlier M2 with more traditional land and groove rifling. After putting hundreds of rounds through other guns I am still completely floored when I go back to shooting a PPQ. The Range Hours It wasn’t a Walther, but it was a good example of what a defense pistol should be. If a pistol isn’t reliable, I have no use for it. Reliability is my first requirement for a pistol. With a high density plastic frame and an incredibly tough tenifer finish on the metal parts it doesn’t lack durability. Now that I have your attention let’s look at what the Walther PPQ doesn’t lack. Sidearms For Sportsmen: Walther PPQ M2 Review I own one of these as well and to be honest it’s given me a lot of trouble. It really is quite easy, even if you try to remove the sight from the wrong direction like I had. There’s a spring-loaded plunger and a small click-adjustable screw for windage and the rear sight falls right out. The front can be replaced with a Glock front sight hex driver while the back can be swapped Walther ppq 9mm for sale out with a small screwdrive
There’s some easy take-up before it reaches a notable stop then it’s just a little bit further to the break. Whatever engineering feat Walther undertook to create this trigger had been worth the troubl
I don’t know how they did it, and I really don’t care, but the Walther’s trigger is leaps and bounds ahead of the pistol I carried in the field. Striker-fired pistols have always had one drawback; the trigger. In the accuracy department, the Walther PPQ M2 should outperform most pistols in its class. The sights won’t rust because they’re polymer as is the pistol’s frame so nothing to really worry about there. In the field I carried a polymer framed duty pistol for nine year
Nothing is perfect and the PPQ does have its share of ‘ehs,’ but it’s not a big list and it’s mostly matters of personal preference. There’s also Walther ppq 9mm for sale a pistol called the ‘Creed’ which has similar frame ergonomics to the PPQ, but it is a completely different breed. The Sub-Compact holds 10 rounds in a flush fit mag but will accept any of the larger capacity mags. The PPQ 22 can be had with 10 or 12 round mags, both flush-fitting. They can be had with 4″ or 5″ barrels (4.2″ for the .40 models and 4.25″ for the .45) or a 4.6″ threaded barrel. There’s the PPQ SC, their sub-compact model with a greatly reduced grip length and half an inch shaved off of the standard 4″ barrel
