Which feel better in your hand? Have you shot both? If so which do you shoot better? That would be how I would make my decision.

Basically the same gun except for the mag release. I prefer the VP9 Mag release to the current PPQ which has been crippled up to cater to gunshop polling. But I would call it a total draw between the first gen PPQ and the VP9

I shoot them both fairly well. I do like the ppq m2 mag release better, however that's the type I'm used to and I'm sure I would get used the Vp9 release with time. Any pros and cons for the different type release?

Basically not the same gun in the slightest, and the PPQ comes in two magazine release variants (M1, M2) not old and "current" as you mentioned........I own both (PPQ 5" with Dawson Precision sights see below) and can undeniably recommend them both. The ergonomics on the VP are slightly better for my hand, the sights are far better (PPQ has horrific stock sights) but I prefer the trigger of the PPQ, slightly lighter pull, crisper break and reset. In regards to polymer striker fired pistols, the VP9 and PPQ stand head and shoulders above anything else on the market.Originally Posted by Greg Bell

Both great guns, but I personally would take the VP9 every time.

VP9.
I believe there are more holsters for it. And I like it better, anyway.

The correct answer is BOTH. Pick the one that points well for you and feels better in your hand.
I slightly prefer the VP9 for the following reasons. But the PPQ is a great pistol regardless.
- Metal vs. Plastic sights
- Metal vs. Plastic guide rod
- Better sights on VP9 regardless of material
- Mag release on my V1 PPQ is a bit thin and can be missed under stress (I won't own the button version)
- Triggers are a wash depending on your personal preferences

I'd would go with the ppq navy but I'm biased!
