Good comprehensive video. I was trying to explain to a friend why the PDP SD PRO is a better option than the P320 Tactical and this laid out a lot of what I've been telling him. The factory PDP trigger shyts on pretty much everything else in the industry and the upgraded trigger on the PDP SD PRO is nothing short of AMAZING!
Love my PDP. Heavily underrated. Carried Glocks, Springfields, and Sigs. I think the PDP has the best trigger right out of the box and I love the tough serrations of the slide for max grip for inclimate weather.
I’m pretty new to this whole handgun world and came across your comparison as these are two models I am most interested in for my first 9mm. I really appreciate your detailed comparison and taking the time to share this. I’m leaning Walther and really love the look of it too, especially considering that is what comes as stock!
Thanks for the informative and entertaining vid. Just purchased this PDP compact and pleasantly surprised with the improved grip and slide serrations, not to mention all my ppq mags work flawlessly. Walther improved the trigger as well, in my humble opinion. Thanks again, just found this channel and impressed with the content. Awesome.
Very good comparison video on these 2! For me, it was the Modularity and Flexibility of the Sig P320 that sold me. Caliber, Frame, Grip, all can be changed to fit your needs & likes. It's basically the AR15 of Handguns.
My P320 was one of the best handguns I owned for a little while. But Walther makes a really good pistol too and are known to bust out some of the best triggers.
I have a P320 that I put the large X-Carry grip module on it and love it. One of the workers at the range I go to own a Walther PDP Compact and let me try it. Man I fell in love. The ergonomics, grip texture, trigger, and it coming optics ready are all a dream to me. The one I shot had a Vortex Viper on it and that convinced me to look into getting a red dot in general. I'm currently in the process of doing more research into the PDP and your video helped a lot. My local Scheels usually has the Walther PDP for sale at $550 and I'm waiting for it to come back in stock to buy.
Very concise and thorough comparison, My opinion. The Walther PDP all day long! But we all have our opinions and I have been a Walther fan since I got my first one in 1984.
Quality choice. I love my P320 but now that I've got two, I think if it came to getting another, I'd go Walther. Plus it's optic ready, has the goodie grip right out the box and better ergonomics
Bro buy both. I just picked me up a 320 and in all honesty, it's a better pistol than both the Glock and M&P, and I wasn't a Sig guy and still am an M&P guy.
For what it's worth, if you get the M17/M18 version of the Sig, either is also optics ready. Also, assuming you live in a state that doesn't restrict magazine capacity, the M17/M18 comes with (1) 17 round mag and (2) 21 round mags. On the other hand, the Walther comes with (2) 18 round mags, and it is currently near impossible to find mags for the full sized (18 round) Walther. If you get the compact version of the PDP, they will take PPQ mags, but the compact uses a 15 round mag.
Free States FTW! These are good points to call out. I'd like to get an M17/18 across the table top. Check out my latest video comparing the P320 X5 Legion to the all-new AXG Pro!
They're both clean, mean looking pieces. I think the fact that the military's adoption of the M17 & M18 means you have guaranteed parts availability for the next 100 years, plus the modularity, pushed the P320 over the PDP
I’m a lefty and considering trading in my P320 for a PDP. The slide release for the lefties functions more as just a slide stop. You can’t actually release the slide by depressing it like you can if you’re right handed... it bugs me more and more the more I shoot it.
As a fellow lefty, the slide catch/release IS very difficult to use at first. However, after putting a few hundred rounds through it and several slide locks, it’s pretty smooth and easy to use now. Another trick is to ride the slide catch with your thumb when you insert a magazine.
@@echosierra9990 perhaps mine is faulty. I’ve pressed down on it with pretty much all the force I can muster and it just doesn’t do anything at all. I haven’t tried just working the button for long periods of time though. I pretty much gave up and figured it just wasn’t gonna do anything.
RXP model sig's come with cut and milled for all RMR and DDP mounting optics. You can also get flat trigger options, Also sig has options for Xray high night sights that is wind and elevation adjustment.
I literally just purchased the PDP yesterday. I do plan to swap my sights to night sights but thats it. Great video. I am a fan of siga but that PDP just kept calling my name
First time viewer. Very in depth content and I applaud you sir. If you were forced to choose one for EDC (concealed carry) which would you choose? I'm looking to make a ccw rotation, currently I carry a cz p10c and I love it so I do prefer to carry compact sized weapons as opposed to subcompacts. Thank you for your time. I also welcome any opinions from all other viewers. Thanks again. Edit Of course I got a little trigger happy and didn't wait til the end of the video but still welcome your opinion.
Well, it depends on what you want your end-state to look like. If you want optics, the PDP is ready out the box. However, I am personally a Sig guy so I'm a bit partial. If you're willing to put in the work to get the Sig fully equipped, I say go Sig!
Being my first gun, I was tossed between both, today I ordered the PDP new "two tone grey" that recently was produced, another advantage the Walther has, your excellent review nailed it in all other respects
I was out shooting my buddies PDP last week and I'm reminded of why I need one. Certainly one of the most compelling options at the price point! Enjoy your new piece!
I just sold my Glock so I could purchase this gun.with my aging eyes I need a red dot ready gun now.I’ve researched a lot and keep coming back to this gun.Where did you order your two tone version?also,the newer pdp’s come with lugs built into the optic area to make it more durable and less chance to fail.
@@360woodierc The two tone grey is still unavailable, but check "Omaha Outdoors" . I ordered a two tone Rose Gold and Stainless from them, don't laugh but the color matches the vinyl siding on my house, haha. They have many colored PDP's, most are feminine looking, but this color I can live with. Took it to the range and it was amazingly easy to shoot! Even with my aging eyes, the standard sight is good for me. Good luck on your search, I find it is pretty hard to find colored full size guns out there, unless you go for a metal gun.
@@alpetrangelo4800 Thanks Al for the info.I’m going to check out a sportsman wharehouse this morning.They had a pdp a month but has recently sold.I’m wanting the full size 4.5 inch barrel.
@@alpetrangelo4800 Well I just bought my pdp. Compact 4in barrel two tone. It’s dark green bottom with a black slide.I went to the gun shop with the full size 4.5 inch in mind but after holding the compact and full size back to back several times it was clear the compact felt better in my hands and walked out with it. I got lucky that it was two tone also,and it’s the newer production that has the lugs cut for the optic plates.
Yeah my 320 is completely different from yours, I got the first gen Vtac, different trigger, different sights it's less lbs on the trigger pull, X carry. The M17/18 is the military version of the 320. The 320 came first, now if you get the second gen Vtac then you get everything I have plus a removable plate for your RMR.
Have both and the PDP ergonomics and trigger has proven to improve my speed and accuracy in rapid fire drills. I have Wilson grip mod on my P320 carry after trying all of them out there. Like to see aftermarket grip mod based on the PDP for the P320. Thnx for the comparison. I ended up putting Fision night sights on my PDP and they are really impressive. I thought I was spoiled with sig xrays, but fision is brighter with good contrast.
Definitely 509 T. I absolutely love mind. The best out of the bed optics mounting plate system, the reader barrel and comes with (2) 24 round mags. Definitely get the 509 T.
I'd LOVE to get a 509T on the desk, that's one I'd like to add to the personal collection. I'm inclinded to say 509, just because I haven't tried one yet. If you get one send it to me to review! 🥲
I really enjoyed this video brotha and it's funny that at the end you suggested that people should buy both the PDP and the P320 because I was searching for the P320 Xcompact and everywhere I looked they where sold out so I got on a waiting list to buy one but a local gun store had 2 4" PDP in stock so I broke down and put money on one and I'm still buy the Xcompact when it becomes available again.
Well done comparison. Like my P320, love my PPQs. I’ve been fighting myself over which SF model to add but now it looks like it’ll be another polymer one, the PDP. *Sweet that you have the SC frame. They’re out of production now and I wound up buying a P250 hammer model just for the frame. If you get a P365XL you should put the two SIG 12 rounders against one another.
PDP for Me! I’ve owned 5 320s there great but to me trigger out of box is better on walther n it shoots just as good n feels better in the hand the texture n ergo is amazing on PDP
I pick up my compact pdp tomorrow...I am a sig boy too. CC a 365 but wanted to try this out for OWB carry. Sportmans outdoors...I pre ordered it last tuesday thinking that if it takes too long I will cancel. Well it already shipped to my ffl...pick it up in a few hours.
Great job! I am your fans now and I really like you walk made me very relaxing 😌 I just got pdp love it 🥰 you are right this gun will stay with me forever. Thank you so much what you did.
Walther should have put night sites on this pistol. Just picked up the full size 4 inch pdp and love it though. Bit still really like my 45 and 9mm 320. Love them
Not positive at this time, but I have reached out to Walther in hopes of getting one across the table with additional info on its release. Fingers crossed 🤞🏾 @WaltherFirearms can we make this happen?
Hey my friend...Is your 320 tour everyday carry? Ive got a 320 with a mirzon grip...I too have Tru Glow night sights on my 320 (great minds think a like my friend) I do like the modularity of the 320... I have 40 S&W barrel, slide and mags as well as 9mm slide, barrel and mags... Love your review and that you for your VERY professional reviews...I just purchased a Walther PDP after watching your review... Im Eric!! Have a great day
It was initially! Until I got my P365. Now it's usually between the P365 and the G19X depending on the weather/attire. The P320 has earned a spot as my training sidearm though. It's usually mounted to my "battle belt" on those get-out-and-get-dirty type of range days. Maybe I'll do a range day vlog sometime 🤔
I bought the 4.5" full size pdp and really like it. I put on the Walther Dynamic trigger and it shoots really nice. I would like to add a magwell to the walther. This will be replacing my Glock 19 (which I also really like) for everyday carry.
@@gunplaytv yea my 320 is the XCarry u have the regular 320. I realize it after I commented, the trigger is different too. Sig has about 8 versions of this gun & I love it so far.
Is that a baldr pro olight? I have one on my cmmg ar9....does it fit on the pdp? By time you answer I will probably know first hand! It's waiting at my FFL now
I think I would have said tge PDP blew it away before I got the P320 Pro. It is that cut and dry owning and shooting both. Overall I would give the better overall and duty sized pistol to the PDP. I have the Compact, but it isn’t really compact. The P320c carries easier. It is also smoother and more chamfered IMO. There is no better break than the PDP. I would call it a very slight edge overall for me because I love Sig’s flat triggers. The break is very light and breaks further forward on mine like my VP9, another choice pistol, you really have nothing to complain about stock trigger wise with either. Where I would take issue with your calls is in the stock sights. Adjustable iron (in this case plastic) sights are too many options on a combat pistol. This is where and the only place where Walther cheaped out. I have the P320c Pro that does have a sight plate but a distinct plates and separate dovetailed irons that are still with tritium inserts and a bright green front sight insert like a true glow. These sights are in my opinion as good as any stock night sights and better than most if you asked me. They don’t need replacing and I won’t as long as the tritium lasts. They are quality and quite useable. It is clear that irons are an afterthought and the focus was on the optic with the PDP. That said I really don’t miss knock down plates at 20-25 yards with the irons on the PDP so I wouldn’t complain with the exception that I think all of the premium polymer guns should come good to go with night sights how Sig does it. I suppose you get a free plate that sort of mitigates the issue. Anyway SIg’s stock sights are better without the plate unit which is cheesy. Now shooting wise, I will say the PDP is hard to beat and might be the best in a non-metal combat pistol. Certainly hard to beat and I’ve tried most. The VP9 comes close, but here’s where it gets challenging. The PDP is a duty pistol. The P330c is a carry pistol and the levels of accuracy are close. For a chopped carry pistol, the Sig punches above it’s weight class for a 3.6” it 3.7” barrel. I can hit a little better with the PDP, but the Sig is darned close and might even be a tad more consistent in its groupings. I’m really impressed with both. The recoil is also interesting because the bore axis you get with the PDP is hard to beat and the grip texture is next level. But the gun is light and the recoil is a bit abrupt. You feel it. The Sig has a higher bore axis and you get the flip associated with that slide reciprocating, but the gun is heavier for such a chopped pistol and the recoil is smoother. So it is hard to call which gun is more rewarding. I cannot knock the PDP, which upholds Walther’s fine legacy, but the Sig’s performance is so impressive for its size. It punches above its weight class for me. I had a ball running and gunning with it on a tac course. I got hits at 30-40 yards with repetition. Looks is not a runaway eith IMO. The Sig takes after the squat beefy appearance of the P226 that doesn’t apologize for being portly. I didn’t like the original big round squeeze ball grip on the original. But the X grip is very simple, elegant and ergonomically pleasing. And the cuts on the slide give the gun a modern elegance. It front and back serrations do their job and are subtle and wind chaff your side. I have not carried the PDP because I haven’t come across a holster for it yet. It is light and the grip is phenomenal and it has the most purpose built non-slip serrations I’ve seen. They killed it, but they are not chamfered like the Sig and there are more edges. I have to call them both ergonomically excellent. The Walther is a tad gaudy for me but they killed it with the performance of this pistol. Probably 500 rounds through the Walther and 300 through the Sig. No failures with either. I would say that the PDP is better overall, but the Sig P320c is the better carry gun to me. I agree, get both. Glad I do.
It's close, but I think the Sig has a bit less. That stepped chamber in the PDP gets you a bit more out of each round, but naturally causes it to kick a bit more
I'm personally not a big fan of lasers (unless their IR and you've got nods), I'd recommend getting your slide milled and mounting a red dot instead. That being said my go to light is the Surefire X300u. The Streamlight TLR-1 impressed me as well; check my other video 🤟🏾
I absolutely love mine. I've wrestled with the thought of whether it makes sense to have multiple variations of the same pistol, and I've decided it does. I need an M18 and one of the new AXGs!
@@gunplaytv isn’t the upside to the 320 being able to buy the grip modules and swap the fcu in avoiding buying barrels and slides you don’t/can’t use at the same time ?
Don't like the direction Sig has been going. That said I have Owned a 320 thought it was okay. I ended up trading it for a PPQ. The 320 isn't a bad gun but I love the PPQ and and it's not really close imo
great video, thanks for the comparison, I'm thinking about getting the sig tomorrow or Saturday , if I do, the Walther will be next lol, recently tested out 100 round dual drum mag for my aero precision AR & want a few more of those as well , especially right now with the ban passing the house ..... hopefully it doesn't get past the Senate... the agents sent to confiscate surely would know it's a suicide mission if it happens
I like the pdp and I own a 320 I don't carry it anymore. Too much misinformation on it. I wish someone would clear this up. Do they misfire or are they safe?
I wish Walther had gone with the modular fire control module like the Sig. No one in their right mind is going to pay a couple hundred (or more) for a new slide or new frame (which actually is the gun as far as the law is concerned).
P320 is trash. I put my hands on everyday and have no idea wtf Army chose it, yeah right cuz they didn't do validation at all. I can make miss fire for P320 by dropping it 10 out of 10 times
Good comprehensive video.

When it comes to the pdp and modularity.. it's actually pretty modular with some of the caniks like the sfx and rival. You can swap slides and mags.

Yo do get the optic ready cut with M17 & M18.
You can change your slide release with Wilson combat slide release, but my hands are already beefy so I enjoy the minimalist slide release.

I did pay the full 649 msrp but at least I have A LOT of ammo bought last spring!!!!
Priced one for $579.00, I'm on it lol
Great job! I am your fans now and I really like you walk made me very relaxing 😌 I just got pdp love it 🥰 you are right this gun will stay with me forever. Thank you so much what you did.
Thank you!! That feedback means alot, especially as I'm just getting started! Thanks again for tuning in and sticking with the channel 💯❤️
Nice job man I enjoyed that video I thought it was very well put together I subscribe.
Walther should have put night sites on this pistol. Just picked up the full size 4 inch pdp and love it though. Bit still really like my 45 and 9mm 320. Love them
Check out the c-10 CZ bro..it was hard but I went with the PDP
I think I'll be getting both, as you say !!
Can you please check if PDP fits in p320 holsters?
That's a negative
@@gunplaytv you cant check or it don't fit?
It doesn't fit.
Ah I see. Thanks
Do you have any idea when we can realistically expect to be able to purchase the Walther PDP SD Pro?
Not positive at this time, but I have reached out to Walther in hopes of getting one across the table with additional info on its release. Fingers crossed 🤞🏾
@WaltherFirearms can we make this happen?
Hey my friend...Is your 320 tour everyday carry? Ive got a 320 with a mirzon grip...I too have Tru Glow night sights on my 320 (great minds think a like my friend) I do like the modularity of the 320... I have 40 S&W barrel, slide and mags as well as 9mm slide, barrel and mags... Love your review and that you for your VERY professional reviews...I just purchased a Walther PDP after watching your review... Im Eric!! Have a great day
It was initially! Until I got my P365. Now it's usually between the P365 and the G19X depending on the weather/attire.
The P320 has earned a spot as my training sidearm though. It's usually mounted to my "battle belt" on those get-out-and-get-dirty type of range days.
Maybe I'll do a range day vlog sometime 🤔
I own a pdp with a laser dialed in so accurate
I bought the 4.5" full size pdp and really like it. I put on the Walther Dynamic trigger and it shoots really nice. I would like to add a magwell to the walther. This will be replacing my Glock 19 (which I also really like) for everyday carry.
This video is just what I was looking for.
Hell yeah, brother! happy to have been of some assistance! Let me know what you'd like to see going forward and Ill try to deliver!
Nice review
Damn fine video! I own both. Love them both equally.
Saludos cual linterna estas usandonen la walther pdp
My 320 came optic ready & I had night sights out the box
Nice! You got a fancier model than I did, then! Eying another P320 though, and this one will be optic ready 🔥
Thanks for tuning in, brother 🤟🏾
@@gunplaytv yea my 320 is the XCarry u have the regular 320. I realize it after I commented, the trigger is different too. Sig has about 8 versions of this gun & I love it so far.
Is that a baldr pro olight? I have one on my cmmg ar9....does it fit on the pdp? By time you answer I will probably know first hand! It's waiting at my FFL now
It is the Baldr Pro and it will in fact fit on the PDP. Only thing is finding a holster that'll accommodate the extra size that the laser adds
Does Walther make mag ext for the PDP?
I think I would have said tge PDP blew it away before I got the P320 Pro. It is that cut and dry owning and shooting both. Overall I would give the better overall and duty sized pistol to the PDP. I have the Compact, but it isn’t really compact. The P320c carries easier. It is also smoother and more chamfered IMO. There is no better break than the PDP. I would call it a very slight edge overall for me because I love Sig’s flat triggers. The break is very light and breaks further forward on mine like my VP9, another choice pistol, you really have nothing to complain about stock trigger wise with either.
Where I would take issue with your calls is in the stock sights. Adjustable iron (in this case plastic) sights are too many options on a combat pistol. This is where and the only place where Walther cheaped out. I have the P320c Pro that does have a sight plate but a distinct plates and separate dovetailed irons that are still with tritium inserts and a bright green front sight insert like a true glow. These sights are in my opinion as good as any stock night sights and better than most if you asked me. They don’t need replacing and I won’t as long as the tritium lasts. They are quality and quite useable. It is clear that irons are an afterthought and the focus was on the optic with the PDP. That said I really don’t miss knock down plates at 20-25 yards with the irons on the PDP so I wouldn’t complain with the exception that I think all of the premium polymer guns should come good to go with night sights how Sig does it. I suppose you get a free plate that sort of mitigates the issue. Anyway SIg’s stock sights are better without the plate unit which is cheesy.
Now shooting wise, I will say the PDP is hard to beat and might be the best in a non-metal combat pistol. Certainly hard to beat and I’ve tried most. The VP9 comes close, but here’s where it gets challenging. The PDP is a duty pistol. The P330c is a carry pistol and the levels of accuracy are close. For a chopped carry pistol, the Sig punches above it’s weight class for a 3.6” it 3.7” barrel. I can hit a little better with the PDP, but the Sig is darned close and might even be a tad more consistent in its groupings. I’m really impressed with both. The recoil is also interesting because the bore axis you get with the PDP is hard to beat and the grip texture is next level. But the gun is light and the recoil is a bit abrupt. You feel it. The Sig has a higher bore axis and you get the flip associated with that slide reciprocating, but the gun is heavier for such a chopped pistol and the recoil is smoother. So it is hard to call which gun is more rewarding. I cannot knock the PDP, which upholds Walther’s fine legacy, but the Sig’s performance is so impressive for its size. It punches above its weight class for me. I had a ball running and gunning with it on a tac course. I got hits at 30-40 yards with repetition.
Looks is not a runaway eith IMO. The Sig takes after the squat beefy appearance of the P226 that doesn’t apologize for being portly. I didn’t like the original big round squeeze ball grip on the original. But the X grip is very simple, elegant and ergonomically pleasing. And the cuts on the slide give the gun a modern elegance. It front and back serrations do their job and are subtle and wind chaff your side. I have not carried the PDP because I haven’t come across a holster for it yet. It is light and the grip is phenomenal and it has the most purpose built non-slip serrations I’ve seen. They killed it, but they are not chamfered like the Sig and there are more edges. I have to call them both ergonomically excellent. The Walther is a tad gaudy for me but they killed it with the performance of this pistol. Probably 500 rounds through the Walther and 300 through the Sig. No failures with either.
I would say that the PDP is better overall, but the Sig P320c is the better carry gun to me. I agree, get both. Glad I do.
Great job!
Which one do you carry more? Interested in going from Glock to something else!
PDP no doubt. My stock P320 hasnt been carried in a while!
the worst thing about the sig is that high bore ... the worst thing about the Walter is the deep cut in the slide you can see the striker
Even then, the sig is softer to shoot than the pdp
Are these full-size 5" models or 4" compacts? Also, great video!
These are the "compact" versions, with the shortened slide but full size grip. And thank you! I'll try to keep it coming! 🤟🏾
@@gunplaytv Appreciate the reply 💪
How about recoil ? Who wins base p320 or PDP ?
It's close, but I think the Sig has a bit less. That stepped chamber in the PDP gets you a bit more out of each round, but naturally causes it to kick a bit more
You didn't mention the need to pull the trigger to get the slide off the PDP. Scares me.
Great view...just subbed
What light and laser you recommend for the PDP?
I'm personally not a big fan of lasers (unless their IR and you've got nods), I'd recommend getting your slide milled and mounting a red dot instead. That being said my go to light is the Surefire X300u. The Streamlight TLR-1 impressed me as well; check my other video 🤟🏾
Just bought my sig p320 today
On the walther you can break the trigger then takedown
Still leery about the 320. It was the only sig I was considering.
I absolutely love mine. I've wrestled with the thought of whether it makes sense to have multiple variations of the same pistol, and I've decided it does. I need an M18 and one of the new AXGs!
@@gunplaytv isn’t the upside to the 320 being able to buy the grip modules and swap the fcu in avoiding buying barrels and slides you don’t/can’t use at the same time ?
Walther has the best trigger.
Don't like the direction Sig has been going. That said I have Owned a 320 thought it was okay. I ended up trading it for a PPQ. The 320 isn't a bad gun but I love the PPQ and and it's not really close imo
great video, thanks for the comparison, I'm thinking about getting the sig tomorrow or Saturday , if I do, the Walther will be next lol, recently tested out 100 round dual drum mag for my aero precision AR & want a few more of those as well , especially right now with the ban passing the house ..... hopefully it doesn't get past the Senate...
the agents sent to confiscate surely would know it's a suicide mission if it happens
I like the pdp and I own a 320 I don't carry it anymore. Too much misinformation on it. I wish someone would clear this up. Do they misfire or are they safe?
IMA BIG WALTHER PPQ FAN.... BUT NOTHING CAN TOUCH SIGS MODULAR SYSTEM, BEING ABLE TO CHANGE YOUR FRAME IS THE BEST IDEA EVER
Frame size to changing the caliber as well with the firing mechanism.
@@mitchgarbeno3788 yes... great gun! Love mines
Sigs = welfare
Tetrahedral , I had to look that up😀
I've never seen such interest in a pistol....ever
It's unprecedented but also not unwarranted. The thing is good to go! Hoping to get a compact across the table soon for review
I hope so.... mines on the way...
Buy them both cohs why not 😅
Just buy both
This is the way
I got both
Yes
I wish Walther had gone with the modular fire control module like the Sig. No one in their right mind is going to pay a couple hundred (or more) for a new slide or new frame (which actually is the gun as far as the law is concerned).
PDP is for me...
Of course
PDP all day the only sig I'll buy will be 🔨 fired.
P320 is trash. I put my hands on everyday and have no idea wtf Army chose it, yeah right cuz they didn't do validation at all. I can make miss fire for P320 by dropping it 10 out of 10 times
Sounds like you have a super old, pre-recall unit if it fires when dropped. This one was from 2018 and even it was post-recall
Talk
I might’ve missed it, but does the P3 20 magazines fit on the Walther PDP 4 inch?
