I’ve got the PDP compact and love it. I mounted a Holosun 509T using a C&H plate and have ordered the suppressor height sights from Walther. Totally happy with stock trigger. Thanks for an informative video.
I have a PPQ and I want one of those pistols. The price is very low their site. But I want to him to change the sights I'm not good at that. I would fuck it up.
how you liking that 509t? I've got the same setup but I've got the 5in barrel 509t trijicon suppressor height sights c&h plate. finally able to co-witness a pistol with the 509t
What an informative video! Thank you for putting that together. I have the 4" compact, and it was really interesting to watch the various things that you did here. Thanks!
I've got a Walther PDP F-series 3.5 with a Holosun SCS PDP greendot. An optic that needs no adapter plate. It's also an optic that you can co-witness with your iron sights in case the optic breaks or fails. It's my EDC. The only thing negative I can say about my experience with finding a good holster for it. The aftermarket support on PDP has not caught up to how amazing the pistol is.
Thanks so much for the trigger installation tips! I would have struggled using only the included instructions. That takedown lever pin will have you questioning yourself, though.
Great video? I just bought the PDP 2.0 after carrying the PPQ , since it came out around 2011. There is also a guide rod option that is supposed to be excellent , it’s by ZR Tactical Solutions , it’s supposed to dramatically enhance the shooting quality of the PDP. Thanks for the excellent video. I build ar15’s but wasn’t sure about doing the trigger on my PDP, but with your video I have the total confidence that I can do it myself. To me, Walthers are the best pistols on the planet. I’ve never had a single ftf with my PPQ, highly accurate and best triggers out there, imo.
Glad this gun getting some attention ,its an absolute gem for the price . I bought the PDP PRO SD 4.5" and I love her ,it came out of the box ready to go and with a nice trigger, it is not a small pistol at all but I'd definitely carry it if I didn't live in brown bear country as this would just pee the animals off. So ya haven't had any issue at all mind you only had a bucket o bullet through her 250 rounds roughly so all good. Just wish came in different calibers...10mm would be an amazing offering ,
You might look into Buffalo Bore's outdoor offerings in 9mm. I believe they are cast, but a lady took down a mother grizzly bear with them. Not exactly a plinking round, but the idea of a 9mm being able to cover all your bases is pretty cool.
@@aarongeerer7758 Oh ya Buffalo Bore are great I carry in my Titan and Delta Elite both in 10mm. Never thought about carrying a 9mm out here... maybe with some +P hard cast .I'd love to be able to carry my other guns. Would Definitely cool brother 😜
Incomplete video, you never spoke of or showed how the upgrades improved the gun. No mention of sights, accuracy or new trigger feel or pull. Incomplete video. Good installation instructions but doesn’t make me want to go out and pay for upgrades if I don’t known that it is actually an upgrade.
Thanks for the install video. Picked one those triggers up and wow what a difference. The factory instructions are for the steel frame and leave a lot of info out that you cover. Thanks again Put it in a 4.5 PDPi
Been carrying the Walter ppq for sometime now and am now carrying the pdp, I can’t imagine the trigger being much better than it already is. But opinions are like, well you know.
Would like to have seen a pull gauge before and after on the triggers. Also would like to have heard you talk about the differences. Take up, break and reset. I'm looking at buying this gun for a green dot Holosun 508. I've had red dots on an M&P M2.0 9mm and a 10mm but I didn't care for either. The co-witness sights were a big distraction for me. I like standard height or none at all. From everything I'm hearing these guns have great triggers as is. If so I see no need to change. I know that some are trigger snobs but a polymer striker isn't a 1911. There is nothing like a 1911 with a great trigger.
@@jonah8133 yes, in my opinion, the pdp f has less recoil than the reg pdp compact. The f uses a steel guid rod vs polymer in the reg pdp. And the f grip module is more like a 1911. All the best
@@michaelphillips5786In Germany the F Model is described by Walther as the female version. Smaller grip, shorter pull and the slide is easier to rack. Would you prefer the F model as a man with manly hands?
Great informational video! I plan on adding new sights and maybe a red dot to my PDP-F and this was a great tutorial. Not sure I'd want to do the trigger replacement myself though.
@@VanceOutdoors I own two Walther PDP. A full size 5" (18+1) and a compact 4" (15+1). Nothing but praises. No complains. The best handgun of the year 2021.
Just got this pistol. My first firearm that i've ever bought (with the exception of the m16-A2 in the Army). Haven't fired it yet, but i will soon. Wondering which laser sights to buy for this beautiful pistol. The grip on this pistol is sooo~ perfect
Nice install video. A bit short on how the upgrades improved the function. It's funny. 5 years ago, before progressive lenses and rheumatoid arthritis set in, this would have been something I wouldn't think twice about doing myself. Today, nah, it goes to the shop for someone with better eyes and better fingers to install.
How do you get the front sight off of the 5in PDP? There's no access to the 3/16ths hex bolt from the top... Edit: There is a plastic dust cover over the screw that can be slid out of place to access it. FYI to anyone else wondering about this.
What’s the advantage of the dynamic trigger compared to the performance duty trigger? Is there a trigger for this gun that doesn’t have the safety? Did you happen to measure the weight of both triggers? Would like to know.
Still too big for a true EDC, in my opinion. I love my PDP, it has one of the best striker fired triggers on the market. I wish Walther would put out a true PDP micro compact to compete with the P365, Hellcat, etc. Give us a PDP with a 3.3-3.5" barrel, 15 round capacity, width of only 1", and that same great trigger.
@@mikegurv1818 I know that Einstein. The 3.5 is designated F. Made specifically for females. All the while, men with Smurf hands are buying them too. 😆
Just had to send my pdp into Walther due to having a failure to feed litteraly every other magazine and at the most random times, nomatter the place in the mag the round sits in and it's always the same exact ftf issue each time. The round will be pinched on the bottom of the feed ramp and bottom of the breach wall. I tried changing to a new oem guide rod and even a sprinco guide rod, no luck..... And it's not a magazine issue either, I'm able to get all 8 of my mags to inflict the issue. I take immaculate care of my pdp and treat it like my child so it kills me to not know what's causing the issue.... This started happening literally right at 1k rounds and I've always fed her great, normal pressure ammunition from Norma to federal hst and federal 115g fmj, never any steel case 😢😢😢
If it were me I'd have placed the sights being removed in the center of the vise. Banging on the slide where it was gave me shivers. As far as the Loc-tite used left me wondering if maybe i've been wrong in thinking that "BLUE" or green if you prefer are the "medium" or less positive locking ability to secure any screw/bolt.
So... What did all that do for you? We didn't see before/after on your groupings, no commentary on the feel or performance of the sights and optic... A follow up would be nice.
THESE THINGS SHOULD ALREADY BE IN THE DAMN PISTOL!!! THIS JUST TELLS ME THAT WALTHER KNOWS THEY ARE SELLING SUB PAR PARTS IN THEIR FIREARMS!! MY SPRINGFIELD ELITE HAS A META MATCH TRIGGER I FRICKING LOVE IT!!!
Manufacturers cannot add value w/o adding cost. Fewer units would be sold at higher prices. They have all that figured out before a new model is produced. Different makes also have different attributes. They have have different costs to consider. Walther and Springfield each build their guns in different ways. If your plan was followed guns would be nearly the same and too expensive to sell.
I recently ordered a Swampfox "Justice" pistol red dot for my Walther PPQ Q5 Match slide and unfortunately the holes dont line up. Which means it probably wont fit my PDP either. You guys have any suggestions?
Disassemble and re almost as easy as a GLOCK. This was a How To demonstration. Not an operational, technical specs, performance before and after presentation. Good armorer demo. 👍
How is that so? Is it better then to buy a regular pdp and the Dynamic Performance Trigger individually than buying the PDP Pro Sd? Because of the spring?
Sounds like a good option for rural folks who live in low crime areas and face little risk of ever having to use a firearm in self-defense. For us city folk probably not so much. I can easily imagine a prosecutor asking why one chose to install a competition trigger kit in a carry gun.
Purely a machining process question but Is it possible since the pdp comes optic ready that as well as using the screws from plate cover but also using the cover as the mounting piece for whatever red dot sight you use by flipping the cover over
I am installing the same trigger right now . I am on your step one popping out the slide stop pin. I can’t hammer this out for The life of me. Do you have any recommendations??
That pin has a much tighter fit than the other pin to the rear. It goes through the frame rail block so it takes more pressure to remove. The tolerance is much tighter in the metal frame rail block, we really had to put some muscle into that pin the first time it was removed. You may want to take it to a local gunsmith and have it checked out. Maybe they can help you get the pin removed.
I understand that this is a year old, but I am looking at Red Dots for my new PDP Compact I just bought. How would you rate the Riton X3 you put on the pistol?
Walther is awesome till slide lock spring retention tab sheers off then it's a safety hazard waste of money because no where can you get the replacement parts and Walther doesn't respond to any communication. Making that tab out of plastic is the biggest design flaw in the industry.
Certainly a very valuable video, but I would like to suggest for future videos that you cut a bit and check that important parts are in focus. In this one, there is a bit much ouf of focus. I have seen other guys using a fixed camera overhead which works very well. But the content here is obviously very good.
Great video! I have the PDP full size 4" and I would like to get my hands on the Dynamic trigger and the Walther steel sights. I run a holosun 508T. Your video just convicted me to get them both. Just got to find them
@@jaytay7989 I went with the full size because I have big hands. I can't use a glock 19 without pinching my hand every time I load a magazine. But the PDP has a the undercut on the trigger guard that allows you to get a much higher purchase on the frame. So in hindsight I wish I would have went with the compact.
Sorry but the one part i think a lot of people would disagree with is you should absolutely loctite optic and optic plate screws. Thats why they come with blue loctite on them, you can break the blue without heat but ive seen enough people NOT TORQUE TO SPEC AND NOT USE LOCTITE and have their optics fall off or come loose to kniw better
The PDP is the same size as the MASSIVE WMR damn near hahaha I'm so flad they came out with the PDP F!!!! The PDP F is the best pistol Walther has ever made PERIOD! I WAS SHOOTING WALTHER OVER 32 YEARS AGO! STILL SHOOTING THEM!
Thanx for such an easy follow video!!! I have the full size 4.5" barrel PDP and would like to know your thoughts of using it as an EDC??? I'm currently rotating EDC a SHIELD PLUS 9mm and SHIELD 45acp!!!
Thanks for watching! We are glad it was easy to follow. The EDC question is hard to answer because everyone is different. The best advice we could give is to get a holster for it and try it out. As long as you can conceal it comfortably, you should be good to go.
Great video. Still cannot take the slide lock/release pin out for the life of me. And believe me, I’ve banged on it. Also tried it with an empty mag inserted, which was supposed to make it easier, but it still didn’t budge. 🤷🏻♂️😡

It's all personal preference. We would suggest stopping by one of our locations or your local firearms dealer if you are not in Ohio. It helps to hold them and see how they feel in your hands. They are both very different firearms.
I just looked up the stores and I didn't know that some in Ohio! I thought some in California cos 10 round count. This spring I'm gonna get married and we will go to Columbus we are around Cleveland area. But your prices are fantastic. When I order a PDP compact how much do you guys charge to change the sights and I'm a lefty so I need to switch the mag release button? I should send you guys an email to ask you guys that.

Good job Andrew
Great video - covered about everything!
Better use the original spring of the pdp. The spring provided with the trigger is heavier. - Or use the Sprinco spring kit.
How is that so? Is it better then to buy a regular pdp and the Dynamic Performance Trigger individually than buying the PDP Pro Sd? Because of the spring?
@@goran5088 there was no pro sd yet when i commented it. Sure you can buy a pro-sd and upgrade it with the Sprinco. It's the same trigger.

Very detailed video .can you please share the link to purchase the upgrade items..I am specially interested in the dynamic trigger..
That box looks huge lol, crate
Made all that look easy
Do you install triggers bought in store? If so, how much extra for install?

Great upgrade video! Is that the Compact or Full size frame? (you mentioned the 4" bbl, but not the frame size).
Thank you! It's the compact frame.
How to kerp the red dot so clean
Purely a machining process question but Is it possible since the pdp comes optic ready that as well as using the screws from plate cover but also using the cover as the mounting piece for whatever red dot sight you use by flipping the cover over
Cool video. But how much tighter were the groups? How much did the trigger improve?
Question if you are recommending a gun and you have too spent more money to get it great was it great too start
6 months later here but would you recommend the tactix optic or a vortex venom?
When you put the front on, why is the slanted part facing towards the muzzle?
Well done!!!

Great video what was the cost on the upgrades
Awesome vid !! 😎😎 Can’t wait to work on mine 🦾👍🏻
Thoughts on pdp compact compared to G19 fkr EDC gun ?
Isn’t that trigger too light for an edc gun? Great for comp shooting.
having owned it for a while now i'd say it is fine to carry, less travel than the OG trigger but nothing crazy.
Any news on the Walther PPS M3??
I can’t seem to get the slide stop pin out from the right side of the frame. Any tips or tricks for this? Yours came out with ease.
That pin has a much tighter fit than the other pin to the rear. It goes through the frame rail block so it takes more pressure to remove. The tolerance is much tighter in the metal frame rail block, we really had to put some muscle into that pin the first time it was removed.

nice job

Walther is awesome till slide lock spring retention tab sheers off then it's a safety hazard waste of money because no where can you get the replacement parts and Walther doesn't respond to any communication. Making that tab out of plastic is the biggest design flaw in the industry.

That pin has a much tighter fit than the other pin to the rear. It goes through the frame rail block so it takes more pressure to remove. The tolerance is much tighter in the metal frame rail block, we really had to put some muscle into that pin the first time it was removed.
You may want to take it to a local gunsmith and have it checked out. Maybe they can help you get the pin removed.
Thanks for watching!!
For sure. I’m going to have to take it to someone, and everyone is charging $45-50 to do it. Don’t have much of a choice I suppose.
How much yall charge to do my pistol like that if I decided to get one
I’m so confused. Why would you be installing the factory pdt in it if the pdp already comes stock with the pdt trigger?
Good, thx
Ammmm how exactly you can make sure the rear sight is in the middle?
I torn between the hellcat pro with compensator on which would say is best
It's all personal preference. We would suggest stopping by one of our locations or your local firearms dealer if you are not in Ohio. It helps to hold them and see how they feel in your hands. They are both very different firearms.
I just looked up the stores and I didn't know that some in Ohio! I thought some in California cos 10 round count. This spring I'm gonna get married and we will go to Columbus we are around Cleveland area. But your prices are fantastic. When I order a PDP compact how much do you guys charge to change the sights and I'm a lefty so I need to switch the mag release button? I should send you guys an email to ask you guys that.
