Customer Reviews for Walther Arms PDP Optic Ready 18 Rounds 4.5" 9mm Pistol

Shipped very quickly and the communication from Bud's from purchase through delivery was above and beyond. The pistol itself is easily the best pistol I've ever owned. Feels great in the hand, stippling bites nicely into your palm, easy to acquire the sights (even if they are plastic), light for its size, smooth as butter, and goes bang every time. It kind of goes without saying that the trigger is phenomenal. I've put ~500 rounds through it in the first week or so shooting it and it's as reliable as they come so far. Gonna pick up the compact next.

First a shout out to Bud's, very fast transaction. Next the pistol. I bought the full size PDP with 18 round magazines. It comes with 2 mags, 3 different sizes of grip backstrap, magazine loader, a lock, and a tiny sight adjustment tool. I shot about 300 rounds through it, dialed it in quickly. Very accurate, one of the best triggers I have used. Love the ergonomics too. Great pistol, highly recommend it.

Excellent Walther quality. The PDP has fantastic ergonomics, a nice trigger, and is fun to shoot. I only have 100-200 rounds through of 115 grain, but flawless performance. Awesome purchase, found for a tremendous price on Buds! I recommend this firearm. A nice addition to the collection.

Love Walther guns. Shoots as well as my PPQ. Trigger is not quite as good me but my PPQ has at least 2000 rounds through it so that may have smoothed it out some, if it needed it. Have a red dot on it and if I want to demonstrate to a new shooter this is one of the guns I go for. You can't go wrong with this gun. If you get the 15 rounder and have a PPQ, you can use the same mags. Also, my Canik mags fit for me?????

At first it seemed like getting my pistol to my FFL was taking a long time. I called Bud's Gun Shop and they quickly found the issue. It shipped to me so fast it amazed me. Great bunch of guys at Bud's Gun Shop. Adam B.

I am a big fan of Walther (and Beretta) and the PDP is by far my favorite. The trigger is fantastic for a stock gun, and in addition to being 100% reliable for me using various qualities of ammo, it has been 'dead-on balls accurate'. I highly recommend picking one up if you are considering it. You won't regret it!

Very good gun well balanced and a great firearm

Awesome Experience purchasing this from Buds. Can't wait to look for my next purchase and give my money to the fine people at Buds!!

Been watching this Walther since the PDP came out, Buds came up with a No Brainer Price and that's all it took, Buds works with FFL Dealer 12 miles away and everything couldn't have gone easier! After gittin the 4.5 PDP and 10 minutes later at the range I knew I made a Great Decision on this gun! Putting a Holsun red dot on it only made this PDP an Awesome buy!! You Won't Go Wrong with Walther or Buds!!

All I can say is WOW! I own a lot of pistols in various brands and sizes. I have never had the desire to own a Walther, actually thought they were ugly. Well, my wife gave me a Buds gift certificate and at the time there was nothing in stock I was interested in. So like a kid with a quarter burning a hole in his pocket I said to myself "I don't have one of these, I guess I'll try it just to have something different." What a great decision! I love this pistol, everything about is is awesome! Literally the best striker fired trigger I have ever pulled, it's literally amazing, I can't believe they make an "upgraded" trigger, How can it be upgraded? The grip texture, the natural point of aim, the recoil, the slide operation, the magazine operation. I'm telling you everything about this gun is top notch. I'm starting to get made fun of at the range because it's the only gun I want to shoot anymore.

My item arrived in perfect condition. Can’t wait to get it to the range and punch some holes. Further review after some range time.

Buds was great with the fast shipping and the item arrived in perfect condition. Great shooting gun. And got for a great price.

Excellent gun. I put a Trijicon RMR on it and it's deadly accurate from 20 yards out and more. As usual Buds was quick, right on time everything in perfect place weapon in perfect shape. Couldn't be happier with my gun or Buds. Buds has been my go to shop for guns for good

I've owned Walters for a very long time going back to the PPK 40 years ago to the recent PPQ
and now the PDP, all high quality guns. The PDP is a exceptional striker fired gun with a superb
trigger slightly better that the PPQ which was the best out there for any striker fired gun. Just
got finished with a range session, the PDP ran flawless and was very accurate with 3 types of
ammo. Walther hit a home run with the PDP and it looks promising there will be aftermarket
support for some custom parts. I see Walther is viewing the PDP as a modular gun and will offer
parts to customize the PDP, hopefully that will happen soon. I have the 4 1/2" full size and will be
purchasing a 4" compact. I think the PDPis a no brainer at a decent price!

I have larger hands and this gun fits my hands well. Very accurate shooter, no jams or misfeeds. Magazine release button is large enough for easy reloads.

I have a PPQ which is one of my favorite pistols - love the trigger, the grips, the overall performance. Given the PDP is a follow-on I wondered how much they really improved an already great pistol. Well they hit this one out of the park. Love the grips and the feel of the pistol - very comfortable. Trigger is definitely crisper. Your mileage may vary but the accuracy with the 4.5" barrel is stunning. Not sure how Walther did it but this is one amazing shooter!

I bought this walther pdp model two weeks ago I have put nine hundred rounds through it. what a accurate and fun gun to shoot. buds made this possiable fast and easy highly recommend them dave f Woodstock il.
