    Nice, it’s fun to play around with the different grips. Personally, it took me a few trips to settle on the large back strap, large right panel, medium left panel. Your gonna enjoy shooting it, especially if you like a 6:00 hold for sight picture (which since your coming from a g17 should be pretty natural)

    thanks i'm going to look into these. At least there seem to be more .45 PPQ holsters on the market now.

    does anyone have a holster recommendation for a Walther PPQ in .45?


    Open carry, no strong preference on material, no light on the gun. It's hard to find one that supports the .45 PPQ.

    well, thank you for what you do! I know it can go unappreciated.

    Yeah that may have been a tad confusing on my end, still up from working 3rds last night so my reading/posting skills are lacking :D

    The holster I posted is what I'll likely buy if/when the VP9 earns the right to become my duty gun.

    While I respect one's right to open carry, I would never in a million years open carry off duty unless I was at a police training. Even then, I typically conceal my weapon if we leave the facility for lunch, etc..

I don't have massive boogerhooks, but I don't have any issue maintaining a full shooting grip while using the paddles. I really did like being able to drop mags with my trigger finger. I'd totally carry a VP9sk if they weren't such a bulky little bitch.
    Good to know! Some people act like the transition is a huge PITA, which is kind of worrying. I'll have to find a way to replicate stress situations just to see what I do for reloads..

    I did hold the VP9sk, it felt massive for a sub compact firearm..

    For sure I would practice quite a bit before swapping duty guns though. It will take a lot to get rid of the decade worth of Glock use..

    Nice, I am sure your going to love it. I will be interested to hear from you after your comfortable with it which you choose for duty. Did you get the paddle style mag release or button mag release version?
