Some you guys might like 'em but I'd just as well have a smooth slide up front.
    I like the front serrations on pistols with optics mounted. The PDP serrations are awesome, grippy without being slicey...

    I would not hold my breath for a PDP with a paddle release. Since introducing the M2 Walther has not developed a single new frame that uses a paddle magazine release. The sales numbers are simply not there compared to their button release pistols.

    Didn't think about that setup. Good point.

    That said, I can't seem to cross the RDS-on-a-pistol bridge quite yet. I'm told it's like a shooting epiphany. Probably will someday.....hell, it took me until 2020 to put an LPVO on an AR!

    Some front serrations put out by custom places look gaudy as all getup IMHO. Factory ones usually aren't as exaggerated.

    If the PDP is like the PPS M2 ergonomically it will be a hit. I have noticed that the newer Walther and HK compacts (like in the last 10 years or so) have been very comfortable in the hand. They seem to have ergonomics down pat. The only one I actually fired was the PPS M2 I *used* to have until my wife confiscated it but some of the others I've fingerf****d in gun shops and they all seem to have a similar feel.....very comfortable.

    Looks like a great evolution of the PPQ. I love my M1, but wish it was more optic-friendly. It has a great trigger so I'm not surprised this does too. I might have to offload the PPQ and get one of these.

    I have two PPQ M2s. I’m extremely impressed and have been to a couple of LAVs classes using them.
    At the end of each day, the target had a fist size hole shot out of the middle, excellent trigger !

    I actually liked the VP9 better but could never get used to the paddle mag release.

    I’ve been looking for a more accurate small carry pistol than my M&P Shield, looks like I will order a 4” PDP.

    I have been considering going to an optics mounted pistol and this seems the answer. Just unsure how it'll fare with my astigmatism.

    I currently have a PPQ M2 and it is one of my favorite pistols. I have 10 17rd magazines that would work in the compact. What would the full size bring other than one more round?

    Where are you finding these in stock?

    Any recommendations on which red dot is best for stigmatism?

    according to Walther the compact does. The full size requires the new 18 rd magazines.

    The compact will take the PPQ compact 15 round mags. The full size 18 rounders seem to be unique to the PDP.

    That good info.

    Would it be to much to presume the compact will accept the full size 18 rounders?
