What can I say, great pistol! I fired one at a public indoor range before I bought it and that is why I had to have one. Mine has been 100% reliable. The mag release on this one takes a little getting used to but once you do you will realize that you don't have to break your grip to drop a magazine. Trigger is excellent, better than most anything else out there, possibly a tie with the HK VP-9. But this pistol was a couple of hundred dollars less than the HK and is superbly accurate.

Not that it matters much since they don't make these anymore, but it was a great pistol when I had it. Slide lever are a bit too long and with a high grip you need to make sure you don't accidentally override the slide lock.

Great hand gun, can see why German police carry it. Shot it yesterday and love the accuracy, quality and feel of this 9mm. A+++

I have a few Walther pistols so I had to buy this one since I have a PPQ M2. Shoots and handles great but it takes some practice to be proficient with the paddle mag release. Great addition to my safe.

Call this review unsafe at any speed. Short and sweet. While I very much liked this pistol I found it easy to squeeze off a double tap when not meaning to do so. The trigger was that sensitive. It wasn't just me. A buddy who definitely has a much stronger grip than me experienced the same thing shooting my pistol at the range. I believe I've read reviews to the same effect. I didn't feel safe with this unintended feature so I soon sold this pistol.

I am a fan of the M1 models by Walther. The paddle magazine release is easy to access while not getting in the way. This model is lager than a concealed carry, so it serves as my in home "go to" pistol. Good aim out of the box. Very happy with the Walther brand.

The PPQ is a wonderful pistol. The paddle releases on the M1 are very nice. It's an accurate and reliable pistol.

Thing is dead nuts accurate out of the box. I'm an unexperied shooter and I was putting down maybe 6 inch groups at 10 yards without really even aiming properly which is a lot better than I expected. I'm sure if I knew what I was doing the light weight trigger would really help but just the ergonomics out of the box makes it shockingly easy to shoot well

Purchased Walther ppq from Bud's at a very competitive price and received it promptly.
I have had it to the range for about 1000 rds with all kinds of ammo with no problems. Very accurate and pleasant to shoot.
I have replaced the sights with Trijicon night sights and very easy to do.
It has quickly become my go to gun in the house because of the increased capacity.

This handgun shoots great, specially the trigger. Accurate right out of the box.

The trigger on this gun is amazing, many people say that it is the best trigger on any striker fired polymer handgun and so far I believe it. Ergonomics are also top notch and you cant go wrong with ambidextrous controls. The only thing I changed on this gun was the sights. Not that the stock sights are terrible but I needed night sights since this is my home defense gun. Definitely recommend buying this gun.

The Walther PPQ M1 is truly a remarkable gun. First time to the range with it, it as dead on center, a joy to hold and shoot, perfect ergonomics, amazing trigger that ends up with a bullet square on target...simply amazing. The best pistol I have ever shot. I couldn't recommend more highly. I also like and prefer the M1 paddle magazine release, which is why I got the M1. I have a Walther P22 that has the same paddle release, it's just so intuitive and better than a side button release, but alas that's what most folks are used to. But getting back to the PPQ - it's an amazing pistol, the best.

People used to say "German engineering" ... and it this case it's true. Great, reliable pistol with even better trigger. I have chosen PPQ M1 (also called PPQ Classic) because it's FULLY ambidextrous. Magazine release is different, but after 1 week of using it I can simply say - better than button release.
Long slide lock/release is a little bit tricky... very easy to operate, however I've had to spend some time working on my grip and avoid pressing it during shots (doesn't affect accuracy, just slide does not stay back after last round if you keep pressing it).
Sights are polymer and regular 3 dot - so no one-hand racking nor night shooting.
I've tested 3 ambidextrous pistols before this purchase - PPQ M1, H&K VP9 and SIG P320C. All three guns are great, but Walther fits best in my hand (this is the highest priority for me).
Pistol works like a charm after few thousands rounds, no single malfunction. And still looks like brand new - that means it has good finish.

I wanted the PPQ M1 because I prefer the paddle mag release over the button. The trigger guard is narrower at the finger undercut and it is more comfortable for me to hold. It is also less likely to release the magazine unexpectedly. The gun was delivered quickly and I took it to the range the same day. I have fired 350 rounds through it so far without a hiccup. The trigger is great and the grip feels like it was made for my hand. It was such a pleasure to shoot that I ordered the 5" model as well. I did have to order the 5" PPQ M1 from a different site though since it is exclusively sold through that site in the US. I love this gun.

This is a good piece. The first thing I did was replace the guide rod with a stainless steel one. I could instantly notice a difference when racking the firearm. It also gives me piece of mind knowing the guide rod is steel and not polymer. For someone with smaller hands, I like the ergos with the small backstrap. However, when compared with the Springfield Mod 2 series, I still prefer it. The XD just fits my hand better and is more comfortable. First time out, I put about 350 rounds through it out of the box w/o cleaning it. It was 100% with WWB, Fiocci 115 & 124 JHPs, and Win 115 JHPs. The paddle release takes a little more focus than I expected to use and be comfortable with. If I could go back I would have bought the button version instead. It also helps that you can use canik tp9 mags with the button release version. The canik mags are much cheaper than the walther paddle style mags. This is very important for someone such as myself who keeps atleast 10 mags per firearm. The sights are not as bad as everyone says. They were dead on for me and the space between posts helps for someone who shoots with both eyes open - like myself. They are polymer though so if you are not against polymer sights then leave them be.

Excellent firearm. Feels good and shoots well.

Smoooooooth trigger. Have to get used to the mag release being on the trigger guard, but its nice. Easy teardown, smooth fire. Overall nice weapon. I especially like the textured grip. For someone who has sweaty hands but doesn't like to wear gloves, this is just icing on the cake. Nice smooth online transaction and quick pickup from local FFL.

It fits like a glove in my hands. I have it for just over 2 yrs now, never malfunction. Works like a charm. Really love M1 mag release.

the best part of this gun is the trigger pull and ergonomics the mag release is awesome and is fun to play with shoots like better than a cz p10c or a glock if you want a 9mm this is the one to own forget that button mag release the paddle will grow on you almost immediately the only reason to not choose this gun is to get a 45

Best striker fired pistol ever! The ergonomics are excellent and the reset is nothing SHORT of amazing. Accurate and reliable. Walther excellence!

This pistol has one of the best triggers of any striker fire pistol in its class. Which is a good class to be in. I do have larger hands and had to make an effort not to ride the slide stop lever while shooting. I often found the slide would not lock back on the last round and attributed that towards my thumb riding that lever. since then, this has not happened. This is a veery happy with this pistol. Will consider this in .45 as well.

Always have been and will own Glock. Have to say in terms of ergonomics of grip, accuracy,and vastly superior trigger, I have been won over by the superb Walter PPQ. Still love Glocks.
