Stark Arms (VFC) Walther PPQ

[Apurturesci]

Lots of people, including me, have been hoping for a new GBB Walther P99 for some time now. Whilst this isn't a P99, it's pretty close, and is technically a step up in RS terms from the older pistol. It is the M2 version of the PPQ with a more normal magazine release and trigger safety. I don't like as much as the P99, the bore axis seems higher, but it's meant to be an improved version so hopefully its just as comfortable. At least it's not a Walther PPX, they are revolting. Stark Arms make the best GBB Glock 19 you can buy, and I'm very excited to see how this turns out:

Having owned a Stark Arms G17, they do perform well but have a tendency to use pot metal screws and parts. Plus the finish wears off stupidly easy.

Hopefully they'll have addressed these issues in this model.

It's strange, I had a play with the Glock 19 and 17, and the 19 just feels better. The finish seemed thicker and the plastic was nicer, so I don't know what was up with that. The ones with full trademarks also seem to be finished to a higher standard than the stark arms marked ones.

Damn. I thought this was their little subcompact (the PPS)
I was getting all hopeful

I would LOVE a PPS. Ultra thin, I have played with a deactivated one and they're great feeling little guns. Still, they could have chosen something worse......PPX?

Well after I got all excited about the VFC M&P compact then upon holding it got a little sad, took a good look at the HUUUUGE gap between the slide & frame & then when I fired it & it's worse performing than a plastic ACM GBB on duster gas, I think I'll not hold my breath.

The VFC Glock may look good but its performance isn't as good as any of the other G series makers so I really can't be bothered with this.

AP.

Re: Stark Arms (VFC) Walther PPQ

Seriously contemplating buying one of these guys, has anyone had any experience with them?

Re: Stark Arms (VFC) Walther PPQ

Make sure you get an Asia version (if you can), it has much nicer trademarks.

Re: Stark Arms (VFC) Walther PPQ

I've seen these, don't they have a much lower FPS than the Europe version? They're definitely cheaper, which seems weird.

When you say nice trademarks, how nice are we talking?

Can anyone recommend a good holster for it though? Not sure if they make SERPAs for these.

Re: Stark Arms (VFC) Walther PPQ

Rather than the normal Umarex 6mm crap the Asian version has accurate trademarks. I wasn't aware of a power difference though.
