I use my PDP F Series 3.5" as my primary carry gun It has Holosun SCS Green dot, TLR7a light, Lok Grips Brass Magwell, Lok Brass baseplates, Lok Brass Backstrap, DPM Recoil system. These mods made it a phenomenal shooter. The added weight and DPM system really minimized the snappiness of the gun. I put at least 1500 rounds through with zero failures to fires.
Own a pdp 5in full size odgreen, 4in compact and just bought a 3.5 F series . All with halosun SCS. Also own a ppq m2 navy and ppq m2 4in. No issue with any of them. Great video.
I just replaced my PDP F 3.5 Trigger with the Flat Face Overwatch Precision Trigger. The Trigger upgrades an already excellent "out-of-the-box" stock Walther Trigger. I have about 1500 rounds through it so far. Been mostly 124 Grain Blazer Brass.
Awesome video bro. Couple questions please. I have the PDP COMPACT and I freaking love it. I just ordered the F series to use as my summer carry. My questions are, I may have missed it but you said that your PDP was your winter time carry, so what's your summertime carry? And 2nd I can't find holsters or mags for my F Series. I'm wondering if my compact holsters and mags will fit my F Series when it gets here or what's up with that? Thank you for any advice 🙏🏾
My summertime carry is currently my customized Glock 43x using Gen 3 Shield Arms 15rnd magazines and a Holosun 407k 3MOA optic, using a MIE Productions IWB holster. As for the F-series Holsters, I stated two options in the video within the F-series section Choice #1 was the Werkz holster using the Streamlight TLR7A IWB, or you can use Wethepeople holsters with the same light combination. The PDP 15 round, 15rnd+2 and PPQ M2 magazines will all fit your F-series PDP. Stay tuned for my next video when I show some footage of the Overwatch Precision Trigger and DPM recoil reduction spring system. They actually make a BIG difference!
@@macross40 Ok cool, and thank you. I bought a Olight for my 19X but don't use it. Was too big to me. So what if I don't put a light on my F Series? I'm not big on lights. But will is fit normal PDP Compact type holsters?
My PDP F-Series 3.5 is my only carry pistol. Totally stock except I moved the mag release to the "wrong" side! 🙃 I have XS Sights coming this week and a 1791 OWB Holster. Probably have a Overwatch trigger installed soon but I'm still deciding on which 'flavor' (curved or flat) to buy.
@@luckylandy2945 So far from what I can see, they can interchange, especially if you have the same WML on it. I was able to do that between the PDP and the F-series 3.5" if they used the same Olight.
Hi I am interested in how you painted your mags and your Walther logo and repainted the logos on the ejection part of the barrel. New subscriber 😊my painted logos have faded over time that came originally with the firearm ( serial number etc
On any of the cars or trucks youve owned, do you only trust parts from the OEM? or do you occassionally go to o'Reilly's or Autozone for a part or two? Not all aftermarket is bad, my friend. :-)
No. Attest I got our back from Walther, there were no further issues. Could never figure out what caused it to jam. Could also be break in time for the pistol
Yes. I have a part II coming up. For the 3.5" I changed to the DPM uncaptured recoil spring system and used the slightly heavier one to work with both ball-ammunition as well as self-protection ammunition
I have both and disagree - it could be your grain weight. I use 147 HST’s and they both shoot fantastically. I honestly have no idea when people say that. To each their own! I played around with the DPM Systems spring kits but settled back on the factory set-up - zeroing my dot was the easiest at 12 yards all shots almost in the same hole.
For the DPM spring I'm using the stage one stronger recoil spring as tend yonuse 124gr ball ammo and 147gr protection ammo. But only the test fire will determine what we stick with
Cerakote Specialties, but they recently closed down after 20 years. I've spoken to the owner about what components they used for the gas pedal because it is VERY unique. I've seen an entire Gen 3 Grip done in this texture
Nice to see a video from someone using their pdps a lot

does the magwell print much?
Which don spring did you user if I may ask? I'm testing mine tomorrow
Own a pdp 5in full size odgreen, 4in compact and just bought a 3.5 F series . All with halosun SCS.
Also own a ppq m2 navy and ppq m2 4in.
No issue with any of them.
Great video.
Same here!
Nice work! I truly do love my PDP 3.5" now. I had no idea this video was being made..

Thanks, as I saw the Overwatch it's on my GET list next month

@@macross40 Thanks again bro, fyi all compact holsters will fit the F Series perfectly.
Excellent video. I appreciate the detail you provided as well as the suggestion.
Overwatch does indeed have a trigger for the F-Series.
Great to know. thank you for the update!
Sure do. I got one but didn't install it yet 👍🏻

Awesome bro. Do you know if it can use reg PDP Compact holsters?

I am glad that i purchased the flat trigger over the curved one. But I'm also one that uses APEX triggers on the PPQ M2
@@troytacticaldefense2597 OK, thank you...

Another great review from an awesome marksman and instructor.
Glad you enjoyed it! How'd you like the end?
@@troytacticaldefense2597 I dunno man, that guy seems a little intense🤪
@@dutchmatthews My wife chose your music background. Onyx "Back up, The Onyx is Here"! 1994
I've used a ZR tactical guide rod for the PDP-F 3.5. I don't think there is a noticeable difference in felt recoil. It may be better for the PDP Gen 1
I would be really interested in learning how you filled in the numbers on the magazines. Could you share more details on your process?
Yall really trust yall lives with those aftermarket triggers
On any of the cars or trucks youve owned, do you only trust parts from the OEM? or do you occassionally go to o'Reilly's or Autozone for a part or two? Not all aftermarket is bad, my friend. :-)
any other insight into what was wrong with the jamming?
No. Attest I got our back from Walther, there were no further issues. Could never figure out what caused it to jam. Could also be break in time for the pistol
I find the 3.5 F really snappy as compared to my MP9 2.0 3.6 compact. I may try a different recoil spring?
Yes. I have a part II coming up. For the 3.5" I changed to the DPM uncaptured recoil spring system and used the slightly heavier one to work with both ball-ammunition as well as self-protection ammunition
I have both and disagree - it could be your grain weight. I use 147 HST’s and they both shoot fantastically. I honestly have no idea when people say that. To each their own!

What size spring u get for pdp n does it work good
For the pdp f- series overwatch trigger I used the stock trigger spring. I like the stock trigger weight.
For the DPM spring I'm using the stage one stronger recoil spring as tend yonuse 124gr ball ammo and 147gr protection ammo. But only the test fire will determine what we stick with
Who you had do the gas pedal?
Cerakote Specialties, but they recently closed down after 20 years. I've spoken to the owner about what components they used for the gas pedal because it is VERY unique. I've seen an entire Gen 3 Grip done in this texture
