Amazing gun, has run great multiple times with zero failures, one of the best striker fired 45s, plus buds always delivers

I like this firearm. It shoots great and is very ergonomic. The only complaint I have is that it's a much larger gun than it looks like in the picture. Understand that it's a doublestack 45, but wow. Other than that, it's fine.

This pistol is my first 45 caliber. If your shooting mechanics are sound { shot anticipation, pulling low left etc} this weapon right out of the box is a tack driver!!! I have just about 1,000 rounds through it without a hitch in performance. If you're looking for a striker fired 45 caliber you won't be disappointed!

I carry the PPQ M2 SC in 9MM and was given the option to carry a .45 ACP so why not go with the best! The Walther grip is the best on the market, the trigger is clean and the recoil is not that much more than a standard 9MM. My only upgrade was night sights. This is the apex of .45ACP firearms.

My firearm arrived quickly and excellent condition. Took to the range and it ran flawlessly. Would recommend Bud to friends.

Went to qualify for my NM CCW on the range. I tried using the S&W 10mm I've carried for 20 years but was so inaccurate I failed qual within the 1st 10 rounds (8 of 10 off target). I guess I'm not as strong as I was when 35 or 45 so couldn't control it. My instructor suggested trying a different handgun and lent me this one. Easily qualified with 22 of 25 shots on target. I liked the way it shot so much I found a new carry weapon (this). Bud's had a really good price, so I bought here. This gun shoots like a dream with a very light trigger pull and tiny reset for next shot. Recoil is easily managed. Buy this gun. You won't go wrong.

Bought this after much deliberation over trying to find a quality steel-frame double stack .45 and coming up snake eyes unless I wanted to put down car down payment money. This thing shoots far better than my FN 545, less snappy/violent, the grip texture doesn’t rip into my hands, and the trigger doesn’t make figuring out when the slop is going to convert to break a per-round part of the shooting experience. Solid quality for the price - I just wish they had a PDP in .45 so I could thrown an optic on it. :)

I love this weapon, it’s light enough to carry everyday or home defense.

Had one of these before and had always regretted getting rid of it. So happy to get another. In My Opinion Walther is Top Notch. And Quick delivery as usual.

The Walther PPQ 45acp is an amazing firearm. Everything that I read about it was certainly correct. It has the best trigger and the best control of any handgun I have ever shot. It certainly lives up to it's reputation. Bud's Guns definitely had the best deal available! I couldn't be more pleased!

This is like the perfect carry gun if you like carrying a full size. It’s very thin, with a proper holster and gun belt you forget it’s there. Shoots great, comfortable in the hand and very reliable. Stock sights are easy to switch out as they are plastic. Very good capacity for a 45. It’s a keeper

I was looking for a 45 with more capacity than the 1911 platform and this fit the bill perfectly. 12+1 capacity, amazing trigger, reasonable priced spare magazines and left-hand friendly (just switch out the included mag release button). Walther makes great firearms and this is no exception, if you're on the fence just go for it and you won't be disappointed!!

Great gun!! Accurate, with one of the greatest capacity available for any 45 acp, light, with one of the best fits and textures on the grip for your hand available, greatest trigger ever, very light recoil in a 45 acp gun, very, very concealable, beautiful and Buds price, also great! Walther products always deliver, and this gun is not an exception, I have not fires all the polymer 45 around but from the ones I have, this is the best one. Just consider that this is a striker fired gun and not very suitable for first gun owners who may need more experience to safely handle it. Besides this, you wont regret getting one!

I always heard great things about Walther, and I wanted a 45 cal. Took to the range, feels great in the hand , trigger is awesome, and is very accurate. Love this firearm.

Like my PPQ m2 9mm shoots great. Picture has 9 to left 45 to right. Picked up the PPQ in 45. The 45 is a big gun. The handle and slide are large. The 9 fits my hand better, but I like 45 for carry hunting weapons. This will be a self defense, hunting side arm. Will more than likely go with a safari land holster.

Outstanding pistol. The triggers on the ppqs are the best in the industry in my opinion. I have a ppq m1 in .40 and an m2 in 40. Also have a pdp 9mm. Hard to be the Walther.

I bought this to replace an old 45 I've had for almost 50 years and I loved this Walther! The quality is outstanding and the working mechanism is flawless. I am so happy with this gun I'd give it 6 stars if I could and I highly recommend it.

Great gun. I did swap out for night sights and put a set of Talon grips on it. Shoots great and the trigger is amazing. I put a Streamlight TLR7 on it and its one of my home defense guns. Wish I had purchased a threaded barrel for it when they were available. Only complaint is that holsters are a pain to find for this particular gun. Walthers are highly underrated.

I own & fire this Walther PPQ & an H&K .45. This Walther is my favorite to fire. Somewhere around 650-700 rds fired through the Walther so far and all is good.
