Customer Reviews for Walther Arms PDP Compact Optic Ready 4" 9mm Pistol

These make 3 of the Walther PDP I own and they are the best! I have had absolutely 0 problems or complaints about these wonderful handguns. Everything works great and the precision is out of this world. I highly recommend them!

This is my carry gun, easy to wear and operate. I only have good things to say about this gun. It has exceeded my expectations and performed perfectly in all conditions fired. Walther triggers are just what i wanted. Quality handguns, i have a full sized threaded barrel as well and can only say the same of it.

Absolutely great gun. Great customer service and easy to navigate.

Reviewed as the best striker fired pistol, the Walther PDP compact with the " step chamber " polygonal barrel, is a great shooter. Oh, and the trigger? If not the best, one of the best short reset triggers. Add the Walther Dynamic Performance trigger, and it becomes the best striker fire trigger! With Bud's prices, I made the purchase and I shoot it at the range at every trip. Zero malfunctions and 100% satisfaction! Thanks Bud !! Dave...

It's a great pistol the reviews were spot on, and it fits great in my hand haven't gone to range yet but when I do I will give another posting thanks to Buds I received it quickly.

Shoots as smooth as butter. Looks and feels amazing! Love this gun. Great trigger. No creep. Minimal take up. Low muzzle rise. Shoots very flat. So glad I "pulled the trigger" on this gun!!! Don't hesitate, well worth the money.

Excellent firearm. Use it for EDC. Grip texture feels great. Good sight picture. Accurate. It’s nice that I can use my PPQ mags with this also (specifically the compact PDP models). Will put a red dot on it eventually. Worth every penny. 100% will recommend. You can’t go wrong with Walther.

I love this pistol. It has the best stock trigger I've ever tried and feels like it was made for my hand. Bud's has been A-1 for quick delivery and service. Walther was super quick getting the optic mounting plate to me. All in all a very satisfying buying experience and a great pistol.

I've been looking at getting this gun for 2 year's. I finally got it. Great shooting gun is smooth Great grip

The gun is supernatural. That trigger!!!!! Excellent!!!! Glock who? Sig who? Between my HK P30 and my Glock 17, this gun Trumps them both!! Get one and your other 9's will sit collecting dust.

perfect for defense and conceal!

First gun that I’ve ordered from Buds. Arrived super quick and in perfect condition. Shoots like an absolute dream. Best stock trigger and grip on the market. Couldn’t ask for a better experience. Will definitely be buying my next gun from Buds.

First handgun purchased from Buds. Great price and no hassels with fast shipping to my FFL. Will definitely buy again from Buds!

With out a doute me my favorite handgun that I have ever owned. I used to think my Glock 19 was my sift go to but this PDP has changed my mind. If you are thinking about trying this handgun you will not be disappointed in the least.

Absolutely love this gun. I was skeptical about buying one when they first came out cause of the mounting plate issues. But Walther fixed them an now it’s hard to beat. It’s a great concealed carry option. An the factory trigger is fantastic. Already put 200 rounds through it and it ran without any issues.

It's my favorite gun, it has a five-star trigger.

After several orders completed with Bud's I have never experienced any problems or delays in getting the items shipped. As for the Walther PDP, I really like this gun. The ergonomics feel just right, shoots reliably, and it's just down right a good looking pistol. It resides in a quick reaction gun safe next to my bed. There are enough excellent reviews on YouTube so I won't bore you with a full review. Would I buy this gun again? Absolutely! And Bud's offered it at a price that couldn't be beat anywhere else.

Excellent for carry IWB and OWB a lot of option to customize and the trigger one of the best I use

Fantastic pistol! Reliable, accurate, good fit in hand, great trigger, but most important, it LOOKS tough as he**! I’m joking of course, but you will not be disappointed with this pistol and as always, Buds is the king!

Amazing pistol. Shoots extremely well.

I've had my PDP for a couple of months now and let me tell you, is an absolute tank. Only "down side" are the plastic sights but the good thing it, they are compatible with most Glock sights so replacements are everywhere. It also comes with an optic cut already wich is a huge plus and then finally, the trigger. As crisp as it gets.

Probably the most ergonomic pistol I've ever shot, very reliable.

Great pistol. Great trigger. Fun to shoot. Uses PPQ 15 round mags if you already have them and you can also use the PDP full size 18 round mags also (they stick out like a Glock 17 mag in a Glock 19 frame). Quick shipping to my FFL.

I love this gun but, for me, it seems to big for concealed carry. Functioned perfectly for the first hundred rounds and the trigger is awesome. Thanks Bud's for having such a huge selection of guns and shipping is fast as always.

I was looking for an upgrade over my old XDS, and after doing my research I ended up taking a chance on the PDP. I'm so glad I did, because this thing is amazing. The grip texture feels great in your hand, and the gun itself is well-balanced while being surprisingly light for a 4" double-stack. I weighed both of my pistols and the PDP is only 5oz heavier than the XDS while having twice the capacity and being able to mount an optic. As a result it's just a tiny bit flippy when putting rounds downrange, but it's nothing that you can't negate by keeping a good firing grip on the thing.
Speaking of, the trigger is very nice. It's a crisp pull with a pronounced 'wall' right before you give that last little bit of uptake. It's all so smooth. Comparing it to my old daily carry is like night and day. Zero complaints about the accuracy, too.
There's a plate that you can remove and replace with a different plate for mounting an optic. Walther will ship you one for free if you go on their site and provide your serial number. Removing the screws to get the plate out ended up being somewhat of a pain because the included Allen wrench is way too small and flimsy, but a power drill with an appropriate bit managed to fix that. Mounting the optic to the plate, then the plate to the gun, was a simple affair afterwards. I put a Holosun 507C on, and the mounting is rock solid. I would, of course, highly recommend getting an optic if you can, especially because my only real complaint with the PDP is the stock iron sights. They're a simple triple white dot layout, and while they're functional they're really nothing special. The sights are removable, though, and if you are so inclined they actually take Glock aftermarket sights if you want to co-witness with your optic.
Overall, the PDP is a fantastic pistol and well worth your money.
