Walther makes some of the finest pistols. They are extremely well engineered and manufactured. My husband and I are collectors of German firearms. It would be nice if they had the paddle magazine release on the PDP pistols. Happy New Year too you. God bless 🙏🎄

My first option out of a list of around 12 pistols - is the WALTHER PDP PRO SD with 9mm 18+1, Holosun 508T-RD-X2; and the Streamlight TLR-1HL. I spend several months and many hours on KZitem listening to what others have to say about performance and reliability. Went to the range and test fired it. All I kept saying was "HOLY SHIT.....WOW" and I was very impressed with my shot group (no not the side of a barn). I say around 25 feet and paper targets. As all the commentators and firearms' enthusiast - The Walther PDP PRO SD pistol (in my opinion) stands out as a pinnacle of modularity and versatility in the world of duty pistols. With an array of features catering to customization and adaptability, this firearm exemplifies innovation in design. I love how it fits in my hands and the esthetics. Here's what I think about it's Performance: The Walther PDP PRO SD pistol delivers on its promise (watch the many videos - yes! on KZitem) of being a duty-ready firearm. The combination of these features translates into a reliable and user-friendly shooting experience. The modularity not only enhances performance but also accommodates individual shooter preferences. Durability: Walther has a history of producing durable and reliable firearms, and the PDP PRO SD appears to continue this tradition. Quality materials and precision engineering contribute to the pistol's longevity, making it a reliable companion in various duty scenarios. Conclusion: The Walther PDP PRO SD pistol stands as a testament to the brand's commitment to innovation and user-centric design. Its modular features, including the Picatinny rail, optics-ready capability, reversible mag release, and various customization options, make it an excellent choice for those seeking a duty pistol that adapts to their unique needs. Walther has successfully combined versatility with performance, resulting in a firearm that meets the high standards expected of a duty pistol. LASTLY: I say to always check for the latest reviews and user feedback (KZitem) to ensure you get the latest up-to-date information on any weapon ....you paying for it. Might as well do your homework. - G

I’m a little disappointed that they don’t include various size back straps. Looking forward to seeing how it does on the range. I’m on the fence (based upon what I’ve seen and heard) between the Walther PDP Match and Canik Rival 5”.

I personally refuse to buy this pistol. There's no excuse for them not putting proper sights on this thing or not including the backstraps! They're charging a premium for this thing and it doesn't even include everything that you need. Other than it having a good trigger I don't see the reason why anyone would buy this thing. You could buy an optics ready m&p, install an apex trigger kit and have a better pistol than this at a cheaper price. The m&p is less snappy and has better sights. The m&p apex trigger kit is basically just as good as the trigger in this thing. The m&p is easier to carry because it doesn't have this gigantic slide. I guess it all comes down to what the competition allows. The pdp has a good trigger and grip but in my opinion the m&p beats it in other areas. Hopefully CZ or someone releases something new at shotshow this year 🙏!! If the next CZ p10 trigger matches the one in the pdp we'll have a winner on our hands.

The WALTHER bottom line is Ergonomics . No other pistol maker surpass Walthers attention to grip design. Proof is their heritage with .22 competition target pistols dating from the 1960's. Their steel varient of the PDP knocks it out of the park. Congratulations Walther Design Department. Dont be silly about the optic plate. Just read and follow the enclosed card. If the critics cant, they shouldn't be allowed near guns. Thank you WALTHER Thank you Graham 👍👍👍👍👍

Hum, I seem to recall that you wouldn’t view the Eschelon manual because they had the audacity to require you to register your firearm with them to view the digital manual, but it’s ok for Walther to do exactly the same to get the optics plate? I’m confused.

For selfish reasons it would be nice to see a vs for the dynamic performance trigger vs the stock on the Q5 Match and vs the Rival trigger (my gold standard for striker fired guns)
Can the Walther be super accurate in such a light frame? If you look at the CZ Shadow 2, the Sig P320 x-five Legion and Sar K12, all exceed 40oz. Even the Sig p320 X-full exceed 30oz. In Sigs promo video, they make clear added weight is essential to accuracy and so in the x-five Legion, they added tungsten to the polymer and added a weight in the grip. Any thoughts on the different approach?

Weight has nothing to do mechanical accuracy, but it can make shooting accurately easier. See pur range video of this pistol via the pinned comment.

If you want more power you're better off choosing the 10mm over the 40. The 10mm can provide you protection against wildlife in the wood's. Most companies no longer want anything to do with the 40. Modern 9mm ammo is the way to go for self defense. Law enforcement stopped using 40sw for a reason. James yeager made some good videos explaining why 40 isn't a good choice. I recommend you check out his videos on the topic. My first pistol was a 40 glock and I regret buying it. I was super young and the guy at the gun store talked me into buying it because I didn't know any better. Usually gun stores have a difficult time getting rid of 40sw pistols so he totally took advantage of me. It was 2006 when I purchased it and during that time period the g19 would have been the logical choice. If I would have purchased the g19 instead I would have had a good pistol for the rest of my life.

Errr...How is going through a register & mailing process for a plate cut time and & cost for the consumer? I'd rather you include the plates in the original package so I can get to shooting right away instead of waiting for the plate in the mail. Other manufacturers does it.

If every pdp has 3 precision cut plates and you don't need them they are wasted and that added cost will be included when you buy it. Maybe it makes them more generous with mags.

@@onpsxmember well first of all, how do you know you won't need them? What if holosun gonna come out with something that's better than your RMR next year? Also other guns like the Echelon or Canik Rival don't come with all the plates, they're cheaper than the PDP AND you don't have to wait for your plate in the mail.

Am I the only weird one here that prefers some over travel in their trigger? I have an M&P 2.0 with the Apex kit with the lighter springs, P10 with HBi reduce springs, VP9 with Lobos trigger, when taking a shooting class, you can really see the difference when a trigger with no over travel play and one with over travel. Practice makes perfect but when adrenaline enters your body, its a whole different ball game.

I prefer my trigger to break at the wall like the m&p apex trigger kit and pdp trigger. Pistols like Sig and glock have more of a mushy rolling break trigger which I can't stand. I prefer my trigger to be around 4.5 pounds. I think people that put 3 pounds triggers in carry Pistols are taking a huge risk unless they have an external safety.

For the price it should have better sights. There's no excuse for putting plastic sights on a pistol in this price range. No one is going to be happy with these sights on a competition pistol which means that the average person is going to be spending an extra hundred dollars on sights the moment they buy this thing. Some people don't own a sight pusher so that's more money on top of it. I think the plastic optic cover is another thing that's unacceptable. It has a great trigger but walther definitely went cheap in certain area's of the pistol. It shouldn't have a polymer recoil spring. Im hoping that CZ releases a new p10 at shot show this year that beats this thing.
