If the Walther PPQ becomes available here, are you interested?

It's not a problem to get the M1 version with the paddle-flipper mag release, but if you want the M2 with the button mag release, it's practically impossible for the time being.

As per above, I got IRunGun's last M2 in Canada, and it is scheduled to come in from CanPar on Friday, just under two weeks after paying for it.

Wondering if I should get the 5" or wait for 4.6"

If you, like me, prefer the superior paddle style mag release ;) then you are stuck with the short slide and 4.6" barrel. The longer version will only be available in the M2 (button style mag release).

On a side note, the mags for the M1 and M2 are not cross-compatible. Something to keep in mind if you are considering owning both or switching between the two.

I'm worried if I buy M1 and it falls out of favor in NA then it will be hard to source mags etc.
I feel like I'm buying electronics and it's going to become outdated. I've never had this dilemma with firearms before.

No, my good man, you've got it backwards. It is me who is sucking up the compatibility issue by wanting the M2 button mag release.

If you get the M1 with paddles your gun will be compatible with all of the mags from the P99 family, so you'd be GTG..
 
Yep, comparable mags for the M1 will be around for as long as you'll ever own th gun. All parts other than the mag release are identical between the two versions. Plus, the M2 is intended for sale in North America only. Walther will continue to selll the paddle version in Europe so mags should never be a problem.
 
I gave up. I don't believe in waiting 6 months or a year. Looks like a Sig 320 might fill the need. I tried the 320 and I like it. I have no clue about the PPQ. Too bad Hickock 45 likes everything but did give the edge to the PPQ for the trigger. Darn.

Wolverine has the M1 Navy
IRG has the 5" M2 (1 left)
 
P&D Enterprises has a Navy in stock, serial number starting with FAP.

Fap fap fap.

I'm so tempted to get it, but I need to buy an ATRS Modern Hunter.
 
I feel bad for the people that can't get their hands on these PPQs. I bought mine from The Shooting Center in Calgary almost a year ago. They also had extra mags. Phone them and see what they have. I love the paddle mag release and adopted it so fast that now when I shoot my Sig P226, my finger is going for the trigger guard instead of the button. The paddle is such a natural feeling position. Anyway, I had a holster mad be Tim who sells his stuff through CTCSupplies in B.C. I love it!

10 round all metal PPQ mags in stock at Northern Republic Magazine Canada $64.99

I agree......................same gun, same holster.
 
I like mine too.
Of all the lightweight polymer guns I tried I shoot this one the best.

Somehow never got used to a Glock.

Last time I had my PPQ out I had an issue though: slide doesn't stay open anymore after last shot?
I have not had a chance to tear her down and do a thorough cleaning and inspection.

Anyboyd had this before or knows what it could be?
This is a M1 9mm Navy.

You sure ? If it's US site it's going to cost cash to bring it to Canada. That's why it's more expensive on CA site. Also factor in CDN to USD conversion.

The first thing I'd do is pull the mags apart and clean the insides, the metal as well as the follower. I haven't had any problems with my PPQ, but I did have this problem with my 1911. A quick clean and good to go. I also number all my mags to see if one is being more of a pain in the butt than others.

Good advice thanks.

I should have thought of the mags. I did have mag issues with a 1911 in the past too.
