WALTHER PDP: Match-Grade Performance and Bar Brawl Toughness
Our introduction to the PDP line came at Walther’s product launch event several months back. This gave us the opportunity to put nearly 2,000 rounds downrange through both the 4.5-inch full-size and 4-inch compact Walther PDPs equipped with DeltaPoint Pro optics.
This included multiple shooting events under the supervision of top-notch instructors like Jedlinski of Modern Samurai Project, Bill Blowers of Tap-Rack-Tactical, Jim Dexter of Tactically Sound, and Tatiana Whitlock. We favored the compact model for most of the event, running it out of a C&G AIWB holster.
We shot the PDP under time constraints, under night vision, and as far as over 40 yards. This included unconventional shooting positions, single-handed drills from both hands, and reloads/malfunction drills.

Back in September of 2020, I flew to Illinois to check out a new pistol rollout from Walther. I’ve been lucky enough to attend a few such events over the years, but this introduction was fated to be different.
The few invitees were not only slated to shoot the guns, but it turns out we were going to train with them too. Even better, the caliber of our instructors put them among the best in the nation and worthy of the excellent weapon being released – the Walther PDP (Performance Duty Pistol).
