Frequently Asked Questions

What makes the Walther PPQ M2 Navy's trigger unique?

The Walther PPQ M2 Navy features a pre-cocked striker mechanism. This means the striker is fully cocked when the slide cycles, resulting in a very light, crisp trigger pull with a short reset, distinguishing it from many other striker-fired pistols.

Is the Walther PPQ M2 Navy suitable for suppressor use?

Yes, the 'Navy' variant of the Walther PPQ M2 specifically comes with a 1/2x28 threaded barrel, making it ready for direct attachment of suppressors like the Liberty Mystic X shown in the video.

What are the common issues or criticisms of the Walther PPQ M2 Navy?

A notable criticism mentioned is the use of factory plastic sights, which are recommended to be upgraded to metal night sights. Additionally, a used model tested experienced a broken slide stop lever, though this is not necessarily indicative of a widespread design flaw.

How does the PPQ M2 Navy perform with subsonic ammunition?

The PPQ M2 Navy demonstrated excellent performance when suppressed with subsonic rounds, reliably cycling even very low-velocity ammunition that can cause malfunctions in other firearms, making it exceptionally quiet.
