Walther Arms PPQ 5" 22 Long Rifle Pistol - Blue/Black, 5" Barrel, 12 Rounds, Polymer Grips, 3-Dot Sights

Purchased my pistol in the beginning of july, had a slide malfunction right out of the box. Slide would lock open with rounds still in the magazine. Mid September the Pistol went to Walther and I was informed that I needed a new slide. No problem except that slides are out of stock and are made in Germany and the current conditions in Europe mean that no slides are available. So after an initial three weeks of waiting I have been informed that maybe by the end of November I might get a functional pistol back.
So while the it's a pretty gun I only put 750 rounds through it before it went back. The malfunction was present from day one so I can only speculate as to how well it runs. Encountering a service problem was very unexpected. Maybe made in America would have been a better choice.

Smooth loading with the magazines having the button on the side to just drop rounds in as you pull it down. Cheap bulk ammo has feed flawlessly so far from remington and federal. The fiber optic sight in the front is why I went with this one and it comes with an extra if something would happen to that down the line. This is a full grip and trigger is very close to my PPQ. The 12 rd capacity is perfect for some of the drills we did at the range and I was so pleased with everything so far. I did clean it before going out and went heavy on the oil and it has run great so far. Easy to clean unlike some of the other 22's or conversions I have. This will be the plinker for us now. Buds had it here very quick and were the only ones to have it in stock.

When I first received the PPQ M2 I wasn’t sure about having a blowback operated weapon, especially in 22 LR. This weapon out of the box is one of the most accurate 22 caliber handguns I have ever fired. With the 5” barrel, at 12 yards I was maintaining 1.5-3” shot groups offhand. Excellent quality, great trigger, red fiber optic front sight is phoenominal! Great purchase at a super great price. LE model came with (3) 12 round magazines. Thanks Bud’s for another great weapon!

Love this pistol! What a great way to get other people to learn how to shoot.
