( 5 out of 5) Good to go right out of the box. The PPS M2 is one darned fine little pistol! Night Sights Done!

These just feel great in the hand, even the older Classic PPS, which has a rail on the frame. Everything about these is better than the Glock 43, and I own them both. I will buy another PPS long before I buy another G43. The grip on the PPS is well thought out, and feels great in the hand. The slide has front serrations. This has night sights. The Glock needed sights and grip tape just to make it usable. It was horrible in cold weather.



The PPS M2 was awesome. The trigger, grip angle, grip shape, slide, sights, magazines are all better than Glocks 1970s based designs, that actually look like they were designed by a curtain rod maker. Glocks patents have expired and now the real gunmakers can use them. I am going with the guns made by real gun makers. I am sick of buying Glocks, and then agonizing over how to make the darn things usable, and how much more money to spend replacing cheesy plastic sights, putting inner tubes, & tape on the grips, trying to make the trigger better, and get a useable gun out of an already overpriced gun. Just buy a Walther, get some tritium sights and be done with it.



I bought a Glock in the mid 1980s. They were pretty awful. In 1987 you had zero aftermarket Glock goodies. The metal inserts in the frames broke, rendering the guns useless, and it took Glock 10 years to sort out some super serious problems. Only the Glock Gen 3 was not recalled, or as Glock puts it voluntarily upgraded which is a super sleazy term for a safety recall.



Walther got it right with the PPS! Walther recalled their CCP, and fixed it. Now it's great gun too! Walther doesn't use weasel words like voluntary upgrade. If it's a safety issue, they come right out and say it. Glock worms around the issues. Rather than get my gun experience from movies & TV I go to the range, rain, shine, sleet, snow, ice, mud, hail, I don't do extreme heat anymore at my age, and I don't care if the wind is blowing my targets into the next county. It just makes them more challenging to shoot at. I actually just use more staples.



These little PPSs and the CCP, and the PPQ, and PPX, and P99 are all good guns even when my hands are so cold I can't get a good grip on anything. They are good with sweaty slippery hands, or in the rain. Sometimes I drive 600 miles to shoot at unsupervised ranges. Bad weather is not going to stop me from shooting. I have had 3 Glock frames break in extreme cold weather. Walther ZERO! The older PPS 40 was also an excellent backup gun.



Glock is late to the table with their model 43. I almost regret buying the G43 too. I have no regrets with any Walther purchases, and that includes some 75 year old .22LR German National Socialist Party Walther training rifles with magazines that cost over $350 each. I don't even know what they are. They are awesome neat .22s that have the same controls as a Mauser 98.
