Hi Stephen, the Walther PPS M2 is generally regarded as a reliable firearm. Many users report that it functions well without significant issues. It has been praised for its accuracy and ease of shooting. However, some have mentioned occasional non-firing incidents that were resolved by re-racking the slide, indicating that while problems can occur, they are not common. Stay safe & have a great day!
Yes, some users have reported issues with the Walther PPS M2, most notably a major safety recall in 2018–2019 regarding the potential for the gun to fire if dropped. Other reported, though less common, issues include: Safety Recall: Certain serial numbers (roughly date codes A through AU) may fail the drop test. Mechanical/Functional Issues: Reports of failures with the extractor, failure to feed/extract, and issues with the magazine releasing rounds. Part Quality: Some users have reported barrel peening or issues with sights becoming loose. Important Details: Recall Scope: The recall affects specific PPS M2 models (not M1) shipped before roughly August 2018. Solution: Walther Arms offers a free, quick fix (often within 2 weeks) for affected, recalled pistols. Aftermath: Many users report that post-recall models are very reliable, accurate, and comfortable for concealed carry.

Good afternoon to you!! The Walther pps m2 had a safety recall in 2018, limited to specific serial numbers for failed safety drop features. Serial numbers starting with AN-AU. It is recommended that you should check used Walther pps m2 to insure they have the safety recall repair mark (a dot inside the magazine well). Hope this helps. Have a good rest of your day. 🇺🇸🇺🇸 'Merica' 🇺🇸🇺🇸 These are the effected serial series: AN3020 through AN9999 AO0001 through AO9999 AP0001 through AP9999 AQ0001 through AQ9999 AR0001 through AR9999 AS0001 through AS9999 AT0001 through AT9999 AU0001 through AU7502
