All I hear about this gun are good things. And like all good

I have a Walther PPQ for over 2 years now and love it so much that I sold my Glocks because they were sitting unused. Glock hump bothered me on extended shooting sessions and the trigger was very meh. I actually like the looks of the gun but thought it could've been better by keeping the older Walther P99 grip frame with a better stippling job.

The bore axis on the Walther PPQ is actually higher than the glock, You will hear about the PPQ have more felt recoil from reviewers and that's because the upper (slide/barrel) maintains the most weight which can overpower the stock recoil spring. I bought this DPM recoil reduction system kit which uses 3 springs to lowers muzzle flip and there is a noticeable difference. My sights are falling on target quicker and I'm shooting significantly faster than before.

Ergonomics and trigger are amazing for me personally but ergonomics is extremely subjective so the newer P320 grip modules may actually be the "best" in terms of ergonomics because there are no finger grooves, palm swells, or humps that may offend picky shooters.

As to why Walther PPQ isn't more popular? Walther is a small company and I wish would do a better job in marketing and aggressively going after contracts to establish themselves like Berreta, Glock, HK, or Sig. People who are looking for a striker fired gun probably don't know enough to put the Walther PPQ on their list of options to check out. You should have seen their shitty rap video introducing that new Walther Creed pistol. It got such a huge negative feedback they pulled that video within a day.

Modern Walthers are toys. The only reason you hear good things is because there are a lot of Walther fanboys that need to defend their purchase.

just as a point of reference they still make the M1, the paddle release version, the superior model, but import it in lower numbers. I bought one last year. it's neat. real nice trigger. grip feels fantastic. also very late in the P99's life cycle they slightly altered the mags which will work perfectly in this gun, so you can buy those from mecgar if you want.

I think part of their lack of market presence is a lesser attempt at marketing compared to competitors and also less fanboys to push their guns on internet forums.

I've carried mine since I bought it the year they released it, never had any issues from it. Walther just doesn't have the market presence of other striker framed polymer handguns. Its just one of those things. Only thing it does better than a glock in my opinion is the ergoes and trigger, which isn't that big a deal to a lot of people I guess.

What are we in highschool?

but back to the topic I generally dislike polymer frame pistols. The ppks is nice, the grips keep coming loose on mine though. I need to loctite everything.

It took me a while to get used to the difference in balance, because I carried a 1911 prior to the PPQ... I'd love to carry a ppks if I had the spare cash for one.
