It really is quite easy, even if you try to remove the sight from the wrong direction like I had. The front can be replaced with a Glock front sight hex driver while the back can be swapped out with a small screwdriver. 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.

The trigger itself has a safety lever in the center ala Glock (to prevent against accidental discharges if dropped), and the pistol has a firing pin block safety as well. I walked into my local gun store to use the range, and an employee said to me, "Hey, have you checked out the new striker-fired Walther? It has the best factory trigger of any striker-fired gun I've ever shot." From time to time I am introduced to a new pistol design at some invitation-only, pre-production rollout event. 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 a mixed history of its own. I own one of these as well and to be honest it’s given me a lot of troubl
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. 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
There are several different versions of this pistol currently available. Some models can be found in various Cerakote finishes too. These grips feel so natural and fit my hands so exactly with the medium back panel that I can’t think of anything I would want Walther PPQ M2 change
Whatever engineering feat Walther undertook to create this trigger had been worth the trouble. But there is so much more to this gun than looking incredible in a mirror. Something which was comfortable, easy to use, not too expensive, and (this is a big thing for me and my budding OCD-ness here) had symmetrical controls.

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 improvemen
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. 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.

He schooled me on the proper way to operate the Walther's unusual magazine release by using the middle finger of my shooting hand. Using your trigger finger to drop the mag, because of the angle, results in your finger pressing against the side of the trigger as well as the magazine release—very not good. Unlike traditional American designs, the PPQ's magazine release is a sizable ambidextrous lever on either side of the trigger guard. I obtained a 9mm model, which comes with two 15-round magazines and three sizes of interchangeable backstraps, with the medium-size one installed on the gun at the factory. One final point of consideration is how well these pistols will hold up with time, use, and exposure to the elements. There’s the PPQ M1, or what they now call the PPQ Classic, which uses a European style paddle magazine release that’s fully ambidextrous right out of the bo
To use your shooting hand thumb you have to turn the gun completely sideways in your hand, almost pointing the muzzle back at yourself—not good. The ambidextrous slide release is surprisingly long but not overly bulky. The front of the square trigger guard has similar horizontal serrations, and the top of the slide is serrated to reduce glare.
After putting hundreds of rounds through other guns I am still completely floored when I go back to shooting a PPQ. From there it’s right back to needing just that teeny bit of encouragement to fire again. The reset is so short that by the time you can think about it the darn thing’s already clicked back into place with a tactile and audible report. There’s some easy take-up before it reaches a notable stop then it’s just a little bit further to the break. It is what every striker-fired pistol strives to be.
