- I have been looking for a good 9mm for some time now and came across the Walther PPS M2. As seen in an earlier video, I wasn't too impressed with the Walther trigger, however, after taking some of the comments into consideration I decided to give Walther another try and boy was I surprised. This little carry pistol has a great trigger and is very accurate. For being my first ever 9mm that I own, I am very excited to get this out to the range more and have some fun with it.

After years of ownership the PPS M2 is still my main EDC. I prefer it over all others. I use the 6 round mags for ultra conceal summer t-shirt weather. One point you didn't mention which is huge for me is the PPS M2 striker indicator. When the trigger is being pulled the indicator rod slowly creeps out the back plate. This is a great safety feature. If you place your thumb over this indicator rod while holstering you get instant feedback on whether your trigger is catching on anything and your thumb may very well stop the trigger pull entirely. It's like having your thumb on the hammer while holstering.
Great comment and thank you for the feedback. I really do appreciate it
Ok but have you taken a look at the sig p365?? This walther has been my edc for years. Just picked up the p365 for my wife and I am stealing it from her. It’s smaller than the Walther AND holds 10 or 12 rounds. Plus it feels better in my hand. No brainer
That's a great point about the striker indicator. You can even prevent the gun from firing with the pad of your thumb so it's basically impossible to have an accidental discharge while reholstering. Imagine how many "Glock legs" could have been prevented if this feature had been on all Glocks.
@@8Forrest8Gump8 I tried the P365 and it's too small in my hand. I prefer the PPS, but I'm game to try the MC9 because it seems to be the same size.
@@stopthephilosophicalzombie9017 i agree the p365 is too much hype imo its clunky and the trigger isnt all that great.
SURE you can spend few hundred bucks to tailor it to ones needs with say a WC grip module and a aftermarket trigger but thats all hogwash.
The PPS will always be my one of my favorite EDC. Set and forget it EDC, no upgrades needed if you train, train train. PPl nowadays are always compensating skill for upgrades and expect to run the gun like a comp setup....
Anyone can get the LE model. It just has phosphorescent sights and a extra mag.
Bought this a few years back, could not be more happy with it. Sold my Shield and LC9s and only carry this now
@@lancearp7389 it is my daily carry now. It’s a great little shooter. Thank you for the comment
Nice range I've had a PPS M2 LE for a few years and I like it also. PPS I do believe stands for Police Pistol Slim.
This is correct.
You will also LOVE the PDP should you elect to purchase one. The F model is also one of the best all around carry walthers still able to shoot very well by all types of shooters from small to large hands. Highly recommend the PDP.
I've been thinking about a PDP. I appreciate the info and the comment, thank you...
@@PatriotOutdoors2022 The PDP F-Series is a "fatty" though. I have one with a 3.5" barrel. I carry it concealed, even "tucked" but it ain't easy!
@@charlesbeall2589 that's good to know. Thank you for the comment, I will have to take a good look at that before I purchase one
PPS GANG
🔥🔥
Thank you for the comment
Nice review! I don't regret buying the PPS M2. It's a sweet shooter, like its big cousin, the PPQ (I have the M1, with the paddle release). The PPQ trigger is nothing short of amazing. The PPS M2 trigger is really good too!
I love it. It's my first 9mm, always been a 40 S&W guy but may start getting a few 9mm to carry. An also thinking about getting a PDP and giving it a try.
@@PatriotOutdoors2022 from what I understand the trigger on the PDP is as good as the PPQ! You can't lose with a Walther. The PPS M2 seems to shoot very well with 147gr subsonics...you might want to try them out.
@@fredw56 I will give the subsonic a try. Thank you for the information and the comments.
@@PatriotOutdoors2022 you're welcome! Thanks for all you do!
I wish they would bring back the paddle.
Good review! Looking to potentially add this to my carry rotation. I’ve watched a lot about it but glad I found your channel and review on it. Gained a subscriber and look forward to more of your content. All the best!
Thank you for the subscription and the comment. It has been a fun little carry pistol
I just bought one yesterday. Bought it used. It’s great. It will be my new EDC. I can’t get over how great it feels in my hand. Usually the single stack ergonomics don’t feel great to me (I even have smaller hands). Great video, brother!
Side note: I appreciate you showing your missed shots. So many people on TH-cam try to look like the perfect marksmen and I wonder how many takes they had to do to get all shots on target or how much of it is cut in and out of videos. Honest man. Gotta love it!
Thank you, it is one of my regular carry guns as well. It feels great in my hands and the trigger is quick. Thank you for the comment
@J S I fully agree. Great daily carry
@JS-dh1qg Yeah the capacity wars are a welcome innovation but for something like 90% of self defense shootings only 2-3 rounds are fired. I certainly want to find a higher capacity micro-9 better than the PPS but I haven't. I do want to try the Canik MC9.
I have this weapon, I love it. This and the Cank SC are my EDC, the only down side is my wife like the PPS more than the S&W I got for her. 😟
This is a great EDC. I use this or my S&W M&P shield 45 Performance Center.
I don't know why Walther is such a small brand in the U.S. They don't have the best marketing, and I guess Glock and S&W really dominate, but it's weird that Walther is barely ever mentioned among the big boys. Their guns are very high quality (as long as you stay away from the Umarex made ones, like the P22).
Have 2. Wife loves hers. I carry mine always.
This little pistol has become my favorite gun to carry. It is small, accurate and fits with everything. Thank you for the comment, it helps the algorithm and I enjoy interacting with everyone. Thank you
Black pistols disappear on a black table, Aggie.
@@annaofre247 thank you for the comment, they help the channel stay alive and grow
I got the "LE" model without any special ID. Only $300
That's a hell of a good deal on that. Was it used or new? Either way, that's a great buy!
@@PatriotOutdoors2022 Brand new.
That is awesome!
@@PatriotOutdoors2022 Yeah it was a Gunbroker auction from a place that was local to me so I didn't have to pay the usual shipping/upcharge.
Never got anything off GunBroker before. There are a few shotguns that I am looking at on there now.
haven't read the comments. How far down do I have to read to get to the first appearance of "mall ninja" who only wants to inform us "no Thanks I'll keep my "...completely missing the point of this pistol
Buy this gun youll never by another.
LOL i tell myself that after every gun purchase and then sure enough i go buy another
@@TADDs101 Agreed
So I should buy it? 🤔 .....I have a Q4 SF that recently got me into Walthers. I just bought a PPQ M2 today and it also does not disappoint. Now I am looking at others.
Yes, it is a very nice Walther. Go check one out at the gun shop, you won't regret it. It has become my daily carry.
@@PatriotOutdoors2022 i use to carry with a 7rd mag and a 8 rd in my pocket or the 6 rounder for carry when i need it all speer gold dots super accurate pistol
That gauge isn't accurate unless you did a trigger job on them.
You talking about 9mm or the pistol?
Too much talking.
@@RonBortmas thank you for the comment, it helps the algorithms and helps this channel grow
Worst intro ever
Dude you smell
PPS: Police Pistol Slim, not “Small”. Nice video though. Thanks
I want one now!
Nice little carry pistol
Like mine
It is an impressive little piece. I'm looking at more Walthers now like the PDP
I’ve still not seen a striker-fired Tic Tac box that I would own even if I could get it for free.
Sig 365. My brother got one and it's incredible.
@@screamingcockatoo no way hatw it
I should have gotten a PPS M2 instead of my Shield Plus, I regret buying a Shield Plus even though I only paid $300 for mine...
@@Chud9737 I appreciate the M&Ps, especially for what you pay for them
