I had 150 rounds for each brand new pistol,
My Glock 19 is from 2003 but was unfired new old stock.
My PPQ was brand new unfired 2011 pistol.
Ammo was Amer. Eagle 124gr. 9mm.
I never thought of myself as a good shot but I must say PPQ makes me think I am a marksmen...
This Target was 30ft/10yards,
All shots were three rounds and stop standing..

The Left Side was the Glock19
The Right Side is the PPQ
The Middle Target area was the PPQ.
The Right top corner was the best group I ever shot, i believe its 3-3shot groups

These two silhouette targets are kind of small, and were moved between 25ft and 30ft.

I missed at least 3 shots with the PPQ and 2 shots at least on the G19 Target.

Thanks for the range report and pics davebee456.
Right now, i'm torn between my long carried Glocks and my new PPQ.
It really is a great pistol.

Thanks for the range report. Can you see the PPQ replacing your Glock 19? I am seriously considering purchasing a PPQ but having a hard time justifying it over my 19. The Walther feels great along with the trigger but I really need to shoot one.

I am thinking about putting a 3.5 lb connector in my g19 and seeing if the groups I get shrink to what I am getting from the PPQ..
I would try to get a ppq at least for a range toy it shoots great

I bought my wife a PPQ in 9mm. I loved the thing so much I got one in .40 and got rid of my Glock 23.

They are great pistols!

If ever a pistol existed that could threaten my love affair with the P30, it is the PPQ 9mm. These guns are simply amazing and I paid $469 + tax for mine, so we can't even argue about the prices. Extra mags are a bit steep, but coming from a long line of HK ownership, I'm rather accustomed to the steep prices.

I have a 3.5 lb. connector in my G19. It does help (me anyway).
The ergonomics of the PPQ is just so good. It was easy to shoot right from the get go!

How is the PPQ compared to a hk p30? I love my p30 with one large exception, THE TERRIBLE TRIGGER. Apparently the only thing I can do is pay $350 for a trigger jOb out in Oregon :mad:

I bought my Hk p30 slightly used a couple of weeks ago, actually traded for it..
I think the P30 trigger is fine in single action mode and very accurate for me, I have to practice with the double action first pull a lot more to be honest.
In single action I think the P30 will give a PPQ a run for its money in the accuracy dept.

In my book, being able to hit what you shoot at trumps everything else.
That's why the P30 works for a lot of people.

Kinda what it looks like when I shoot my Glock... I need to try some other pistols.
