Sidearms For Sportsmen: Walther PPQ M2 Review

To me the polymer ones feel flimsy and I do question their long term reliability. I’m not a big fan of the captive polymer recoil spring. 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 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. 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 some easy take-up before it reaches a notable stop then Walther PPQ M2 it’s just a little bit further to the break. Whatever engineering feat Walther undertook to create this trigger had been worth the troubl

Sidearms For Sportsmen: Walther PPQ M2 Review
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have been reported to change the point of aim but I’ve outfitted both of mine with Trijicon three dot night sights originally made for the P99 and they’ve been dead-on.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 Walther PPQ M2 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 PP


Not all ambi pistols have full ambi controls, nor are they all built where the controls on the left side are the same as on the right. I had been searching the market Walther PPQ M2 for some time for a proper ambidextrous nine millimeter pistol. After seeing the groupings I knew that I had to have one of these pistols. With a street price of $459.00 (EuroOptic.com) the pistol is an incredible value for a German-made product. It’s built to last a lifetime with minimal care, and it should be comfortable for anyone to shoo

What Gun Is That? How Experts Identify Firearms from Photos and Video
Periodic inspection and cleaning are more than acceptable with this pistol. The Walther PPQ M2 has a tenifer coating on its metal parts to prevent corrosion…and it works. Durability is a big component in my choice of a pistol. Tactical nerds who carry 87 Walther PPQ M2 rounds in their fanny packs will argue that several spare magazines are better than my single magazine in a defensive situation. Capacity is another consideration for me when selecting a pistol. I drew on my experience with that pistol in evaluating the Walther, which is why I can confidently recommend the Walther in terms of reliabilit


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 b


I’m not going to focus much time on Walther PPQ M2 range reports in the Sidearms For Sportsmen column. Walther definitely paid attention to the gripes pistol users have, and they made this pistol very comfortable to shoot. You don’t need NBA hands to fit around the grip and everything just seems to mold to your palm. One of the biggest standouts of the PPQ M2 is the overall design of the pistol itself. One of the features of the Walther that has had people talking is the trigge

The Q4 Tac comes standard with a threaded barrel, an adjustable rear sight and fiber optic front sight and is complete with an optic mount.
