As mentioned in Sunday's range trip post, I've acquired a replacement pistol for my SIG P320s.
It's a Walther PDP Pro, complete with an ACRO 2 red dot sight.
The Walther Dynamic Perfomance trigger is really great. Between that and the ACRO, hitting the target was rather easy.
So far with 250 rounds through last Sunday, I'm just starting to get used to it. Zero malfunctions so far, and with 18 round magazines, its easy to get ammo going through it to the target so you're shooting more and reloading less.
Overall it fits the hand well, it comes up naturally when drawn, and the eye finds the dot immediately in the ACRO. So far, so good.
Now that I've put the smaller back strap on the PDP, it fits my hand better. I need to get back out to the range to try it out and see if that change improves things.
I also bought a Tenicor Velo 5 holster to carry it in. First time trying Tenicor.
The Tenicor Velo 5, interestingly, is shipped with the clips and camming bar unassembled to the holster. This seems weird but there is a link provided to a Youtube video on how to best fit the holster to your body. Very smart, that.
After sizing it appropriately following the steps in the video, I think it conceals the PDP rather well especially as it is very much a full-sized pistol:
Don't mind the wrinkles too much. The Tenicor makes the Walther PDP disappear under just a plain t-shirt. I'm rather impressed.
The Velo 5 is also rather comfortable for carry in the holster. No need for a wedge at this point, and the shape of it works very well to both conceal and make it comfortable to carry the PDP. So far so good, it's a solidly built and well thought out holster.
So far the Walther PDP is a worthy and reliable successor to the SIG P320. Time and more range trips will tell to see if I can shoot better with the Walther than the SIG.
