How do you like the P-10? I have seen some reliability issues and it has kept me awayCharles L.

I'll have to admit that I'm back to carrying my CZ P-10C, in light of the "social unrest." Capacity could well be an issue these days. I may go back to a 1911 in 38Super. I loose five rounds in the mag though and that's what makes going back more difficult.

I've had 2, one early, one second variation, around 1000 rounds on each with zero issues on either.How do you like the P-10? I have seen some reliability issues and it has kept me away
You know...I no longer have my ppq to do a proper “side by side” SA trigger test; but my P99 trigger is so close I doubt I could tell the difference.Maxwell wrote: Thu Aug 20, 2020 3:38 pm I have to add to the Walther posts: I carried an M&Pc for over a decade, now I carry a Walther P99c (AS). Firing pin block,very good DA, and the best SA on the market in my opinion. The SA trigger on my P99c is crisper than the trigger on my PPQsc! Now all I want is a full size P99AS to go with it.

It's okay, but it's a striker-fired polymer handgun. I like it better than a Glock, Springfield XDM, M&P or other striker-fired handguns I've shot. The trigger is much better. I've fired at least 10,000 rds with no problems. I don't know of anyone who has had a problem with a P-10C.cmgee67 wrote: Thu Aug 20, 2020 2:20 pmHow do you like the P-10?

Nice to see there are other Walther fans on here.surferdaddy wrote: Thu Aug 20, 2020 4:52 pmYou know...I no longer have my ppq to do a proper “side by side” SA trigger test; but my P99 trigger is so close I doubt I could tell the difference.Maxwell wrote: Thu Aug 20, 2020 3:38 pm I have to add to the Walther posts: I carried an M&Pc for over a decade, now I carry a Walther P99c (AS).

It is strange to me that the PPQ set the new standard for polymer trigger pull and then came along the cz p10 and a few other improved polymer pistol triggers but somehow the P99 was lost in the shuffle.
Perhaps people were put off by the manual of arms description. I think “Anti stress mode” confused some people and they just didn’t want to complicate things. I never use the AS mode unless at the range. Otherwise the P99 operates just like any other DA SA gun. Walther probably just should have left the half pulled trigger “catch” out if the equation all together. It just may have changed the course of history. We may all have been carrying ultralight weight DA SA guns instead of striker fired. Who knows?
I agree. The fact that the trigger actually has 3 modes (for lack of a better term), DA, SA, and AS, throws some people off when in actuality it really is just a DA/SA.jason812 wrote: Thu Aug 20, 2020 6:52 pmNice to see there are other Walther fans on here.surferdaddy wrote: Thu Aug 20, 2020 4:52 pmYou know...I no longer have my ppq to do a proper “side by side” SA trigger test; but my P99 trigger is so close I doubt I could tell the difference.Maxwell wrote: Thu Aug 20, 2020 3:38 pm I have to add to the Walther posts: I carried an M&Pc for over a decade, now I carry a Walther P99c (AS).

Walther did a very, very poor job promoting the AS trigger on the P99. I bought the QA version in '06 because I knew nothing about how the AS worked and I didn't have the internet to research. Now I wish I would have gotten an AS instead even though I can shoot it just fine. I still would like to get an AS in 9mm just to have a 9mm. All my other ones are .40cal.
The PPQsc doesn't use the same trigger as the PPQ. It's not like the P99 and P99c which share firing mechanisms.
I do like the paddle mag releaes too. I've looked over the parts diagrams and think I could put a PPQ trigger in a P99c DAO if you swap a few parts. That way I could have a PPQc with paddle mag release.
All my Walthers have ran flawless.
