Just another shooter
Hi folks:
I am thinking about a high end gun when I’ve put the money together for it. Right now, I’m thinking about the Walther PPQ Match 5 SF Pro. Tell me why you think this is a good or bad idea, why you think so, and if you don’t think it is a great choice, make a recommendation. The only thing off the tables are crazy expensive guns like those from Korth, and guns above 9mm.
Let me help by giving more particulars:
1) I am not looking for a custom tricked out Gucci-Glock or similar gun. I want it to be great as a stock gun that can be fixed with stock parts. Apart from some possible trigger work, I don’t want to mess with it.
2) I am not a sport shooter. I want this type of gun because I have osteoarthritis and Fibromyalgia and the recoil mitigation of a heavier competition grade gun should help to reduce the discomfort I feel from shooting (I usually shoot twice a month, 200 to 300 rounds per session). I have nice 22s, but I enjoy shooting a substantial gun.
2a) I want something in the 40+ ounce range. I’d prefer it to be steel.
3) Although I like 380, apart from some higher end 1911 platforms in 380, I’ve not seen a full sized 380 that will meet my needs/wants.
4) I’m not planning on carrying, suppressing, or putting an RMR on it, so these features don’t mean anything to me.
5) No hand cannons, so Deagles and such are not up for consideration.
