Walther P99QA Owners Question

[brubo11]

Hi.

I'm considering purchasing a Walther P99, most likely the QA model.

As an existing owner, could you let me know what your overall thoughts are about it?

Thanks

Nice pistol, James Bond uses one. Much better made than Glock
Now if I was looking to buy one I'd go for AS action, not QA.
QA has a feel of double action trigger. Unless you in to this kind of thing.

Thanks.

I was at a shop yesterday and they had the AS. Fell in love with it. I think it's the one for me, not the QA

I have a P99 AS in .40 S&W and it's great, well made and reliable.

For some reason though, my Glock just fits my hand better...

Which shop??

I have been looking for one and can't find any anywhere...

I have Glock 22, M&P 9 and Walther P99 in .40. They're all a bit different, that's why I have them all. The P99 is numbered serial, not alpha-numeric so it's made in 02 I think. Made before AS, DAO, QA models. It has a single-double feature and the single's better than Glock and not increasing like the M&P. The new ones are a bit different and the DAO is way harsh by comparrison. The QA is the one I think has the best trigger. I think you can get improved parts for them too, I just can't remember where. The hardest part is to get reasonably priced mags. If you need to, I can put you in touch with an individual that may be able to help.

Is that what you're asking?

I had the P99 AS in .40 and loved it. Now I regret selling it. Stupid me. That said, they are quality built, reliable pistols but then they're German so expect nothing less.

I was shooting a friends, but at Al Simmon's in Hamilton, that can get them.

Not till earliest, spring though.

Last time I was there, they told me they do not deal with Walther at all...

All the shops around here and in the GTA can order them but it will take a long while... The guys at Al Flaherty's told me they ordered one 6 months ago for a customer and still waiting...

Not sure what the deal is with these guns but they are hard to come by...
