I wish Walther would make a PPQ 45 Long Slide.
A note for PPQ owners who have developed grit on the trigger:
I did a complete teardown on my PPQ 9mm last night (granted the ease with which one can remove the "gearbox", by just knocking out the rear rollpin makes a teardown on a PPQ trivial) as I had developed some grit on the takeup and break.
I polished (first using 2000 grit then Flitz polish) the slide safety plunger and bore, the side of the plastic trigger itself where it rubs the frame, the trigger bar where it rubs the frame (there's a little nub that is the primary contact point), and what the parts diagram calls the 'adjustable trigger bar guide,' which is a strange little part that rides on the outside of the gearbox between it the frame, and impinges on the top of the trigger bar.
I found that if I took out the trigger bar guide, the grit went away completely. I was tempted to leave it out, but the consensus on the Walther forums is that it provides necessary pressure on the trigger bar. I ended up polishing the dern thing to a mirror finish, and now the 'Q has a legitimately 'zero grit' on take-up and break, and you know what they say, a smooth trigger is a joy forever!!
I can’t wait to finish saving up for this. I already have the PPS M2 LE subcompact and I’m loving it. Great review.
In the last six months i have bought one S&W, one Ruger, one Glock and two Sig's. Seeing that we live in an everything is someone's else's fault society and i'm in deep denial about my addiction to pistols i blame you. My dog has to eat cat food because it cheaper and he now growls at the monitor when he sees your face. So this video well have no effect on we in anyway. I have two 45 APC pistols and do not need another one. I just checked the safe and I don't have a Walther, always wanted a Walther .... dam maybe just one more then I'll be done buying then.
+NAHAAFB LOL. That's okay, my dog growls when he sees my face too!
+Justin Opinion Poor dog, happy guns.
haha all of us gun guys have an addiction, to keep buying. u have urself a nice selection there. I wish I could buy a new pistol every month
Famous last words! LOL!!
NAHAAFB just one more👍
As usual great video. I have the PPS and PPQ M2 and love them. Maybe one of these days I'll get the 45.
Love my PPQ 9 and can not wait to get my 45 . I hope to God they design a PPQ10mm soon to.
The best "big" pistol in 9mm or .45 acp you can get...PERIOD!!!
Jeremiah Wilson I agree
If they weren’t distributed by Smith & Wesson they’d dominate the market. Nothing is close including Glock, HK, & CZ!
Great video, thanks!!
OMG. That was such a informative show & sexy ending!!!! Thank you!!
Thanks for the review, Justin Opinion. I bought the PPQ chambered in .40 S&W soon after their release. Do you believe an upgrade in recoil spring and a steel rod would tame that snap just a bit? If so, can you recommend a maker? Again, thank you.
Now, if Walther would only make a PDP 5" .45acp ...... in steel frame?
Life would be good.
🎯💥👀⚖️🗽☮️🇺🇲✌️
Great Videos! I'm a walther fan too.
Your First Two Shots Made One Hole !!!
sig p320 45. vs walther ppq .45. my two favorite manufacturers going head to head would be awesome.
It has to be good to get a "1st 180" through it! This one has been very close to the top of my needs/wants list. Only a matter of time before I grab one. Thanks!
The last of my want for my Walther collection!
I picked up my new Walther PPQ 45 at lunch today and ran 100 rounds (Blazer Brass FMJ 230 gr) through it. No issues at all. I love the extra long slide stop. I did not notice much in the way of muzzle flip or recoil impulse, seemed less than my Ruger SR 1911 Light Weight CMD I shot Tuesday. I like the M2 magazine button. I love the trigger and the feel of it in my hand, it is my first Walther. The only thing I have any question on are the sights. They are plastic/polymer and the rear sight seems to be extra wide. Great gun!
+princeofmoskova Excellent input from a first time PPQ owner - thanks. Compared to your SR1911 light I'd agree, but some other poly-strikers shoot a bit flatter. Not a big deal by any means, for me anyway. Also agree on the rear sights of the Walthers. Too much air space for my taste. I'm working with an aftermarket replacement that I hope to review before too long.
+Justin Opinion I will admit to not being a poly-striker guy, I prefer a hammer, but this gun just spoke to me and I had to have it. It's a great gun, but I am looking forward to your choice of aftermarket sights.
Looks like all it needs is a Talon Grip and it'll be good to go!
I enjoy watching your videos on reviews even though the content does NOT apply to me, live in Ca. Need I say more? But I will, reason I continue watching is because of your fair unbiased opinion. I only wish we were allowed to own more pistols, slowly but steadily fading here in commie Ca.
I bought one. I have never shot with the stock captive spring. Mine is stainless steel(about $50). I have shot several hundred rounds of cheap 230 grain "ball" ammo. It was flawless.A tungsten rod system like Glock has may or may not be optimum. I did not see any optional recoil springs to run +P rounds. But plastic guns might not be the best idea for those loads.
Very cool vid! ^^
Did you replace the recoil spring with SS one? Awesome gun great video 👍👍
Man oh man the envy is real here in Cali. I'm just lucky I got in on the PPQ 9mm.
Great job man! Did you put a SS guide rod in it? Also, Stihl Timbersports has logroll competition you should sign up!! Lol love your vids buddy
Do you think a stainless steel guide rod from BT Guide rods would help with the muzzle rise? It would put a little more weight out front.
I have the PPQ in 9mm and I’d love to have the 45. I’m kind of leaning more towards an FNX 45 because of the capacity mostly. 12 rounds isn’t bad for a double-stack 45 but 15 is better. Also I kind of want something double/single action with a hammer and decocker. Maybe if the money situation gets better I’ll just get both, maybe one now and one later. Then it will just be a matter of finding ammo.
Wouldn’t it be nice if an HK could have a nice trigger ? I’m dying for a striker fired .45 full sized model.
I’m very curious about this pistol. Great video and review. Thank You.
This PPQ should be the next US sidearm, screw the M9.
+Neptune Bluez I agree. The military should have a .45, as it is inherently sub-sonic. The 9mm PPQ had a Navy version with a threaded barrel and could shoot full of water. They should do the same with the .45.
There's a place called Tornado Tech that can add threads to Walther barrels for around $150 or so. I'm planning on doing that when I get a PPQ 45 if Walther hasn't come to their senses by that time.
Well, the SIG P320 M17 and M18 is the gun now. The 9mm is only chosen because it’s a NATO round and it’s economical and you can hold more rounds. A hit in the military is better than no hit at all. I can understand it for military use, but give me a .45 ACP for civilian self defense.
The US military is so cheap in five years the official sidearm will be a hi point
Another great review! Nice shooting.
+wpankey57 Thanks!
Is the PPQ good for concealment carry? Also which one do you like best the PPQ 45 or the XDM mod 2 45 thank you very much and have a nice day
Nice review. What 45s are you referring to in your review that return to target quicker? Thanks
bigB6flyer probably glock and m&p
If the barrel was the same length as the Glock 41 I would buy the PPQ... HATE the grips on the Glock 41 love the grips on the PPQ
The first 2 were right on top of each other
Looking to put a tactical barrel and compensator on mine and I believe it will be.a dream gun.
Pretty damn accurate for 30 feet.
Just a suggestion for all PPQ's, I love them but there is just too much air in the rear sight. I purchased a 10-8 rear sight, the stock rear sight notch is 180 thousand the 10-8 sight is 140 thousand, for me it is perfect. On my 9mm PPQ I just purchased a Truglow front sight OMG.
Love Walther pistol
How is this pistol with Buffalo Bore,Underwood,or Double Tap ammo ???
Great reviews! How would you compare the PPQ .45 with the Sig P320 .45? I am also a Walther fan but not sure if a 10 round version is coming out soon and waiting is not one of my strong points! Recently sold my only .45 so eager to get another back in the safe! Thank you for any input and keep up the great work!
+CA Husker Interesting that you'd ask - I am dying to do a direct comparison between the PPQ 45 and the P320/45. Hope to work on that soon! I will say this - the SIG is very nice!
I am sure there are a lot of people including myself looking forward to that review. Thank you in advance and I will keep an eye out for it.
Nice shooting!
Nice review. Leaps and bounds better than that Ruger SR45 that gave you trouble. Seems like it shoots everything you feed it, and very accurate. Are you considering in getting the Ruger American Pistol in 45acp as well?
+Sportimus Hoping to. It looks very promising.
is it possible to remove trigger safety and still have it be safe as long as you don't pull trigger
they need to make extended magazines for the ppq 45 would be so epic!!!!
I have a 4 rnd extender plate for my .45 PPQ so I'm now 17.
Great trigger bad bore axis! Love the pps though better than the Glock 43!🤯🔫💣
On the fench on this one it looks like it has a really high bore axis but i really want that ppq45
I have only ever practiced or owned 9mm but I have shot 45 before. I am researching 45 because I plan on buying one next month. I am leaning heavily on the PPQ. Anyone have any input for a first 45?
the PPQ in .45 acp flips more compared to comparable pistols. But you cant deny that trigger.
Jeremiah Wilson at the range dude next to me says his 9mm Walther flips more than the 45 so...
Oh yes, before I get scolded , I should have included the HK45 in my list. It isn't striker fired but neither is the P227 or the 1911, but them that also opens the door for the CZ 95, which is a great gun and a solid 1911 alternative.
Notice Walther went with the standard push button American style mag release instead of the HK style paddles
How does this compare to Ruger American in .45 ?
I really love my 9mm PPQ. I'd like one in .45. My wife has other plans. Now I'm sad :(
+MrRoboskippy Maybe she'll surprise you for Valentine's Day. :)
It'd be great to see a comparison with the Glock 21 and the Springfield XDM 4.5 to keep it in the striker-fired, large capacity models.
+13noman1 Yep, G21 for sure. I don't have a 4.5 XDM handy... not yet. ;-)
nice gun
Why in the first part the target is getting hit above the aim? Is it the gun? He always ends up shooting above the target square. Not hating I’m just wondering if it’s the sight? I want to get this gun so I was wondering
Could you compare it for new Ruger American handgun in 45?
Great vid as always!
+oogabooga72 I'd like to, for sure.
The PPQ 45 has a firepower/capacity advantage over the Ruger American 12+1 vs 10+1. I like the Ruger design; however, why didn't they just make it a 12 round + pistol? I'll be getting the Walther PPQ 45 future-tense because of capacity among other things of course.
Ruger American 45 vs Walther PPQ 45 PLEEEEEASE!
nice gun! nice shooting!. I would trade my ppq 9mm, for that. do you think the Xd mod 2. 5 inch barrel will becoming in a .45 soon?
+JOEY Simps (Jozy) Hard to say about that. I think it eventually will, but I don't have any inside knowledge or anything.
For now on I'm just waiting on .45acp pistols. I love that round. Even though. I like my ppq 9mm. Can't wait for a comparison video
Justin please do a comparison between this Walther 45 and the Sig P320 45 full-size. Two new guns. Should be interesting!
+Schuster What a coincidence.... that comparison is finished and will be the next video I release. Probably mid-week.
+Schuster Actually, the video has been pre-viewable via the Justin Opinion Channel Facebook page for a few days now.... a little perk I like to give those who Like the Facebook page... just sayin'.
That thing looks like it about to fly out of your hands when you shoot it!!!
Rear sights should be adjustable for windage
Clearly the first two to match against the PPQ are it's Germanic cousins the Sig brothers P227 and 320. After that the Austrians Glock 21. Them the central European XD and finally the American M&P and the 1911. That would bee my recommendation.
Justin does this gun chamber a round just by inserting a loaded magazine while the slide is forward like mine and others didn't think this was possible very scary
How Is recoil compared to Glock 42,30& the Walther M2- 9 mm?Will it Hurt a recoil sensitive Person with weak hands and Is recoil painful.Thanx very Much for your reply
Most any .45 ACP is going to have a lot more felt recoil than even a small 9mm. The recoil is good on the Walther, but it's a bit top-heavy-ish.
Teeroo Sam who cares even if recoil worse glocks are the same as being a 50 year old guy wearing two diamond earrings affliction t shirt with sequins on his jeans.
Justin Opinion add lead weight to pic rail see if that helps
Does this gun eat underwood extreme defense
do you need different ammo with the polygonal barrel
No, but jacketed is recommended.
@@JustinOpinionChannel thank you
I think I'll stick with the Glock 41 for my 45 striker fired pistol. Thinner, less muzzle flip, more accessories. Still prefer my HK45 and USP45 tactical. I'm sure the Walter is a fine pistol though. Thx for the vid
Dog gone spell check.... I meant Walther lol
That long slide design is awesome isn't it? I want the G40 long slide in 10mm.
Elliott Butts your name is Elliot butts
Elliott Butts g41 thinner than ppq 45? I'd love a proof pic of that.
Nice flip off at 1:16 to all those who don't like Walther haha
I would like to see a comparison between the PPQ 45 and the 800 lb gorilla in the room, the Glock 21.
thefilmguy I'd like to see this vs an 800lb charging gorilla if it wasn't mean thing to do
I've seen a lot of data.
TLDR:
Glock get's back on target faster.
Walther is more accurate due to the trigger.
Both failures can be compensated for by skill.
So This is about the 9mm right ? so why are there comment about the 45 ?
Does a ppq9 and a ppq45 fit in the same holster
+A Squeo No. The 45 is wider.
New subscriber here, keep up the good work 👍🏻 BLUE LIVES MATTER 🇺🇸
Are you going to put the new Apex Flat Faced trigger on it?
+Scott M. No way I'd change the trigger on a PPQ. Apex makes nice products, but the PPQ trigger is the unicorn that they are chasing!
+Justin Opinion Good deal. It was crazy that Walter came to Apex to partner in that design though. (According to Apex)
.45 slug fest hk45 vs ppq 45 please and yes i know its a hammer fired vs striker but hk is taking its time on a VP45 so.... lol
+SERB10593 I was thinking that too... good idea.
Great Vid... I think you should put it against a USP 45... My personal favorite.
+hdvsmith Would love to (but don't have the USP). Already thought about the HK45... and the SIG P320/.45 seems a good comparison to do too.
I want to like it.... but I can't.... With such a high bore axis, it's like a race car on top of the track not in it... If that makes sense.
FNX 45
Could you review Springfield EMP 4" new from shot 2016 thanks Justin
if they made this in the "classic" model- with the paddle style mag release then i'd buy it- the m2 just doesnt work with me
Guy flips you off 1:17
PPQ 45 vs HK 45
PPQ 45 vs USP 45 Tactical
+1
agree
+Roy Morris HK 45 trigger suck ass , even with LEM trigger.
PPQ 45 vs M&P 45
ppq 45 easy
Ruger American 9mm VS. Walther PPQ 45
I've done two videos with the Ruger American .45, and no one has watched them. That would be a fun comparison, but it would be lower on the list. I do need to get that PPQ 45 back out again soon though.
Ah ok. I've been researching both and deciding which one to get. I've been going back and forth between the two for a while. If it helps, I did watch your 1st hundred video on the American and I liked that you hit all the points with the gun.
It's a nice gun. A comparison between the two would be fun for sure. I'm not really prepared to recommend one over the other at this point, though my gun reaction is the prefer the Walther. Thanks for watching!
No, Thank you sir. Like I said I've been doing a lot of research and your videos were a big help. It makes the decision that much harder, but I'd rather have all the information and make a good decision then the exact opposite. Especially when it comes to getting a solid, reliable pistol. Keep up the great work.
Dang, I hate Kalifornistan. PPQs are deemed unsafe and illegal because the are not on the DOJ Roster.
It's funny. You can squint at the 45 and it looks kinda like a highpoint.
+Eric J LOL - that's true. The tall grip handle brings that out, I think. However, it does shoot a little better. ;-)

I don't understand people...You want a full sized side arm....but you don't want it to be big? Don't ever elect anyone like me. I'd mandate IQ test for anyone who'd who'd own a gun.
are you really left eye dominate
Yep, I really am
Justin Opinion what's a good comfy in waist band holster for ppq 45 ?
Wouldn't be my first (or tenth) choice for IWB carry because it's a fatty... so if you already don't mind that then I'd say get a StealthGear holster. Most comfortable you can get - and top quality. I carry my G30S in one.
Justin Opinion yea it is pretty big I agree but so cool thanks for your time and info I appreciate it. keep up the great work love your videos
Justin Opinion what's a good light pistol for a dude with huge hands and I know you'd never say glock
Why this Stupid Music at the beginning ???
Which stupid music were you hoping for?
Love my PPQ M2 for IDPA, I will check this out. Nice review
