    I noticed that. Makes me sad.

    Likes pretty much everything in every caliber.

    The 2 compacts that I have were purchased at 2 LGS in south Florida for $649 each. Many of the other LGS were asking 100 up to 150 more.

    Anyone know of a compact PDP available at MSRP at a reputable dealer?
    Same thing happened to me!!!

    I was sooo pissed! I even applied for the Cabella's Cap1 MC to get the instant $20 dollars in club points, and an additional $10 off for signing up for their emails,... This would put the Pistol's total @ roughly $100 off the MSRP! Went thru the WHOLE application, signing up, making profiles & accounts, getting all the discount codes applied during checkout, etc,.. Then as I clicked Submit,....?? "Insufficient Inventory to ship qty #1!!!!!!"

    About 3 weeks ago, The range master offered to let me shoot his 4" PDP compact with a 1MOA RDS & 5 round extended mag! (20 rounds total.). This was my first time even looking thru a red dot sight let alone shooting with one! (All The dot 'Jitter' was a little disorienting at first. But I got used to it. I understand now that with a slightly larger MOA dot is supposedly less 'Jumpy?")

    Anyway, I LOVED shooting the PDP!!! To this Complete Novice,.. Recoil was manageable,.. The trigger felt just AWESOME compared to my G19 or Hellcat! Super crisp break, short reset and rests Right AT the wall to break for followup shots!! (...at least that was my admittedly limited experience impression!).

    Now I know how you guys end up owning a bunch of guns! Ha Ha!! Needless to say, I REALLY want one of these Walthers!! lol

    So, this was my 20 round/@5m group on my fourth mag. (I know most all of you guys can shoot WAAAY better at much further distances,.. But I'm pretty happy with this for a start!)

    For comparison, This was what I consider my best 5m group that day with the iron sight Glock.

    I just got some sights for mine.

    I have a Glock sight pusher but for everything else I normally use vise and punch but this dovertail is tight... so I am thinking it's time to finally buy a universal pusher.

    I don’t see that there is a PDP shoe for the MGW Pro tool yet. I had to file a bunch off the rear Glock sight and then beat it on with a hammer and punch. Definitely a gross motor skill installation!

    I handled, but didn't shoot the PDP my brother bought. Impressions: Grip texture is very aggressive. Felt good in the hand. Mags seemed to drop free easy. Glock sights I guess; it had the same adjustable rear sight as a Glock 34, and what looked like a standard Glock front as well. Trigger was light and very crisp/clean... maybe too light IMHO. Slide is, chonkey, and the serrations are aggressive. He's going to stick a RM06 on it as soon as he gets a plate for it from Walther.

    Anyone have the skinny on the factory adapter plates? Are they GTG/tight tolerance like a Forward Controls MOS plate? ... sorry if that has been answered up thread... I'm still reading!

    If it’s a matter of the shoe, wouldn’t a P99/PPQ shoe (#131) work? Given that PPQ slides are seemingly more or less interchangeable on PDP frames, I would think the P99/PPQ shoes should work. (Photo lifted from Walther forum).
