They are a bit over-engineered in the slide much like the HK P30's.I have a Q4SF and had a PDP 5”. I CC the Q4 I like it that well. The best striker fired handgun I’ve ever owned. The PDP was a nice pistol but the slide felt bigger than it needed to be…. Just didn’t care for it as much as the Q4.
This steel frame pdp is looking very appealing. Maybe I should say it's alluring.
Look at that trigger in this video.

I didn't see the 1900.00 MSRP, i'm out lol.Looks great and I love my Q5 SF, well if I could keep it running for more than 20,000 rounds at a time, but another $1800 specialty pistol I don't know.
I was wondering if selling off a few others might be worth while. However, I don't shoot competitively anymore so it wouldn't be in my best interest.I didn't see the 1900.00 MSRP, i'm out lol.
I held one of the M&P metal versions at an LGS yesterday for just a moment. Didn't do anything for me, but of course I didn't shoot it.If Walther ever makes a steel frame F series, I'd be very interested. Matter of fact I'd like to see a lot more plastic framed striker guns get a metal frame option.
I shot am M&P Metal PC with the comp a rep brought into the store. It was only maybe a touch softer and that was with the metal and comp, but the difference was negligible to me. M&P’s are soft shooting anyway.I held one of the M&P metal versions at an LGS yesterday for just a moment. Didn't do anything for me, but if course I didn't shoot it.

The first time I sent it back was because the slide quit locking open. They ended up replacing the slide. Without looking at my logs I think I was only about 30,000 rounds in. This time at about 20,000 it keeps having failure to feed, extract. I tried an extra power extraction spring for it but that only helped for a while so it is going to have to go back again. Going by the Walther forums these are unfortunately fairly common issues.What broke on your Q5? Also hoping whatever issue you did have Walther fixed for free.
