The lines of the P99 are amazing. Truely iconic. Something that was lost on the PDP. As was the paddle mag release. Paddle releases are seriously underrated.
You should buy one tomorrow, because Tomorrow Never Dies
Nice of Walther to give it a proper send off
P99 in green is perfect
I'll have to take your word on that one heeh
Nah, black all day long
Misha I,m SO pissed off at Walther! First there discontinuing The p99AS! Secondly NOT offering the PPK in .32 ACP!
Unfortunately, the USA market has a hardon for the .380 PPK....yeah i know its dumb but *shrug* Fact is the .32s just don't sell nearly as well.
I want a double stack .32 of new small sizes! Nothin
Agree there would be more of a market for .32 ACP guns if there were high capacity double stack ones out there
@@misha5670 So true brother - giant raging hardon. I really don't get the obsession with a .380 PPK... It is kind of perfect for various reasons in .32 ACP
I totally agree - the PPK is perfect for .32 ACP... The older imports go for crazy money on gunbroker too - dang it!
Hi Misha, hope you're doing well! My FFL got two of these in and offered one to me. The unique trigger mechanism really caught my attention and I love paddle mag releases. Needless to say I added it to my collection because I didn't have an example of a P99 in any configuration. Definitely agree with your sentiments about the the case. The plastic box is nice and rugged, but the foam is bad. It really needs to be softer. I'd also like to see a 3rd mag included and a better solution than just throwing the spare parts in the bottom of the case.
I really enjoy my S&W 99 and that striker decocker feature. My SW99 is incredibly accurate too.
I just need a rear sight spring and plunger replacement just in case I break or lose mine.
I just couldn’t bring myself to spend the money on the P99 because for its price, there are better 9mm options.
I bought the Final Edition last year and love it. I also own a compact PDP, and between the 2, I would still carry the P99 over the PDP, just because of the trigger. I'm more comfortable with the long double action trigger for carry.
I like & miss the decocker on newer Walthers.
I love the P99 platform, I have the full size and compact and QA, I've never seen a QA compact for sale and would buy one if I ever find one.
Mine came from CDNN. Back in 2011, they had both fullsize & compact P99QAs for.....$400....NIB....and extra mags for....*cough* $15. So that's why I have one heh.
Great video and great review! Many thank’s!
I've grown to appreciate the P99 Final Edition from hrfunk's videos. He has such enthusiasm for it from decades of experience and took time to go over the idiosyncrasies of the trigger/decocker and how he used it back in the day. That subcompact p99 you showed is a more interesting piece.
With your rifles you have the "sling transfer" to show which you are keeping. For pistols maybe a lanyard transfer? The keeper gets a lanyard. Just a thought.
I think keeper pistols get extra mags....and get fired to of course.
I like the final edition best cause the rail on it
I bought a final edition from earl in Pearisburg. I had always wanted one. I shot is some and liked it a lot. Like the fit and decocker especially. Since I would have had to start cherry picking it went with everything else in the collection. Made my money back+ a little. No regrets. The only one I purposely kept was 1st gen pps because I carry it. It's a great walther. Enjoyed the video.
I want one of these cause I collect green guns. That’s kind of like my big thing, but I can’t justify the price on these, especially for a gun that borderline does not fit my hand.
Is the grip too big or too small for you? Are you a big guy? Most Walthers fit me like a glove.
@@wizkaqueefa9003 I can almost palm a basketball, I can hold it for a second or two, and it slips out on my hand
@Scott079 the large grip back strap adds a lot to the size of the grip. I'd say it makes it close to a 10mm grip size.
I don't have a full size P99 AS because I wanted to able to more easily to carry concealed. Therefore I got the P99C AS in 9mm. Its been a wonderful sidearm and 100% reliable.
I generally describe it as a "classy pistol. While Glocks and SIGs are perfectly functional, the P99's lines, profile and features project class. Its ergonomic grip, its paddle magazine release, and its innovative striker decocker button set it apart from the other polymer handguns, set it a bit...above.
I wanted one bad. Then I found a gen2 .40 for $450. Glad I grabbed it instead. A brass coin is cool but a test target and fired case is much cooler IMO.
Don't forget about the plastic cleaning rod too! Being serious, i am perfectly happy in just keeping my P99 Gen 1 'Military' edition myself, but no hate for what Walther did with this F.E. either.
I Like Older Walther Pistols 💨🔫 But I’m Talking 1930’s-1960’s Models Not Too Keen on There New Stuff Misha 😎😊
I have a P99DAO. I really wanted the AS, but I still love it, lol 😆
I hope the AS trigger at least becomes an option for the Walther PDP, or maybe the next generation of Walther pistols.
Definitely off topic but been watching some of your videos from a few years back about 223 AK rifles. Currently trying to work out a deal on a Saiga 223 sporter rifle with the rearward trigger and sporter handguard forend. I like the P99 pistols though and some of their copies. Great video as always
What are they asking for that Saiga Hunter? Asking because i picked up one yesterday myself.
@@misha5670 800 beans for it
@@misha5670 at 800 I’m thinking I need to scoop it up
Yep, that sounds like a solid price....if its what you want? Of course if you plan on converting it, by the time you pay for the needed parts, it would end up costing you about the same as a few other 556 AKs..for example the Zastava M90 or WBP Fox.@@ethan5.56
$800?! BUY IT. They will never be imported again. I wouldn’t convert it either. Only add the feed ramp and modify the mag release to allow for 556 ak/Galil mags
It’ll be a Russian mini 14.
At most Id modify the FSB so you could use brakes.. but I’d honestly leave it man. They’ll hold their value and there are far too many 556 aks that you can buy that have all those modern features.. leave it a virgin!
I love my P99 Final Edition.
Hey Misha!💪☝️🤙🇺🇸
Hey Misha...
I have question that's not germane to the topic of the video, but I put great weight in your thoughts in all things firearms...
... I was wondering if you have in the past or presently own a Ruger LCP Max 380 and your thoughts regarding it ? Or even your thoughts based on other premises ?
Wishing you the best...
Thanks and much peace, grace and love to you and yours, God bless brother
Sorry, I'm afraid such things are outside of my wheelhouse.
No worries !
I mean.. I knew it's out of your realm of discourse, but thought it was worth asking...
I feel dumb or even dirty for asking about such remedial things here... I feel ashamed... lol
Thanks again and have good night...
Remember, Mossbergs are among my favorite shotguns @@Soli_Deo_Gloria_.
Maybe they’ll keep making them for the rest of the year til they run out of parts? Looks like 24 date code
Gen 2? You mean 3.
The weight of the package looks like it was due to the sheer size of the coin. Good Lord!
lol, you know? come to think of it?
What do I think I think you're thinking too much about the items that are dumped on the case God forbid because when I think about buying a firearm the first thing I think about is the presentation and the case is that I'm most likely going to throw out because I'm buying a gun not the case in the presentation limited whatever addition does not matter it's not an original Mauser c96 what matters is that the gun fires I don't know anybody that keeps cases original boxes or the user manuals or the cleaning rods I could go on but I won't
I never liked the P99. ironacally its the ergonomics that I really hate.
