Been thinking about this for a while, looked at a lot of pistols I don't own and like Radnor said my NEXT gun.
I want a Walther PPQ M2 45ACP.

I like the PPS I own, great 9mm and accurate. I want a 45acp next and Walther is well made. Like the 12 rounds that you don't get in 1911's.

If only Walther made their .45 PPQ with the classic paddle mag release.. I'd order 2!  :(

My PPS has the paddle and thought the PPQ did too. Still want one.

Look at F&N.  FNX45 carries 16 rounds of 45.

I'm going to guess you 3 on you right now, plus or minus! :D FNX45? Sounds like a good pistol to raffle. ;)

If you want to see one, I'm sure there will be one at action pistol tonight.  Maybe even two.

Or you could reach out to Federal Firearms see if he still has one in stock.  Great person
to sit down and talk with.  And a great FFL too!

When I get the slide back (night sights being installed) may post a pic.

Nice looking handgun. I looked online at a FN FNX-45 (night sights) priced at 1200.00 :o Then the FNH FNX-45 at around 700.00 8) This was at Buds, I use that site and Gander Mountain for reference, and it described the manufacture as "owned by the regional government of Wallonia". Reminds me of the Grand Budapest Hotel. I like a pistol with a hammer - single/double action pistol with a de-cocker safety. I own a Px4 with those features and love it. It is the easiest to field strip of any handgun I own and wonder how the FN operates. It's not a deal breaker, just wondering. Looks similar looking at the "button" in front of the trigger pin. Looks like a really nice shooting pistol. Top shelf.

At AP there were 3 FNX(s) there.  Ambi everything on them too so if you had to shoot weak hand only.

Monday night 5/16 at AP there will be at least 1 there for you to see.  If you come out bring your firearm
and 70 rounds.  We're shooting the FBI qual course.

The $1200 one has high night sights and threaded barrel for a can.  I've been getting night sights installed
on mine.  Last one goes in today for them.

Seen some video of that from a good guy who works at X-Ring. May not be exactly the FBI qualifying course but looks like fun.

If all goes well, Smith&Wesson Shield in a 9mm with safety. Love the way she feels in my hands.
