Walther PPQ 5" w/ Ported Slide being Replaced w/ new "Standard" 5"

Recommended Posts

Attention all Walther PPQ M2 5" seeker's... Model# 2796091 is being replaced with the new 5" they are calling the "Standard" Model# 2813734. The only real change is it will no longer have the cool ported slide, so get them quick if it's on your list. The old one has already been taken off the Walther website. :keeporder:

See the new standard PPQ M2 here: http://www.waltherarms.com/handguns/ppq/ppq-m2-5inch-standard/

The pic on that page has the ports.

BTW, I have a 2796091 for sale.

Yeah, they just forgot that picture. The gun has been replaced in the lineup chart at the bottom of that page and has also been confirmed via Walther employee on the Walther forum.

I just picked mine up about 3-weeks and love it! Might want to hold onto yours now until they are sold out at retailers.... demand will go up from there. :)

Seems very strange they would eliminate this ported slide rather than just add the standard model.  I am having trouble believing the weight they list on the standard as it is exactly the same as the ported model at 26 ounces - I would have expected it to be heavier since there is more metal.

I believe the thinking is to differentiate the PPQ line more from the Q5 Match their competition / performance model.

The highly ported and milled side along with the coated trigger and fiber optic sights of the Q5 are it's claim to fame.

The weight is weird, unless they internally lightened the slide to compensate for the loss of the porting? Time will tell as I don't believe any retailers are stocking it yet.

Out of stock. :(

Figured it won't last long... if you are interested in the 4" they got those for $5 less than the 5". Sale runs until Friday so fingers crossed they get a few back in stock. :/

Insane new deal from GunBuyer.com - $399 AFTER rebate on the PPQ M2 5" (Ported Slide):

I emailed them to see if they'll price match that price.  I bought mine last week for $58 more.
