I just wanted to share my enthusiasm about my newest handgun. I used to own an SW990L in 45, which is similar to the P99 QA. I never was able to get used to the trigger, but I loved the ergonomics of the gun. I recently sold it and replaced it with a P99 AS in 40, which I bought here in the trading posts. All I can say is wow!
The AS trigger is much better than the QA trigger was for me already. And if I have been reading correctly, the trigger just gets better once it is broken in. I bought it NIB, and so far only have 72 rds down the pipe (one mag full from all 6 mags it came with. The gun seems to be more accurate than me. I was easily keeping them in a 4-5" group at 25 yds, and I think with some practice I should be able to tighten that up some more. This is much better than the SW99 would give me, as I had trouble keeping them all on the paper at 25 yds without REALLY concentrating on the trigger each time I pulled. Double taps also seemed to be faster and more accurate than with the QA trigger. The overall finish seems to be better as well, although this is just comparing ONE Walther to ONE S&W, so I can't say that this is always the case.
The marking next to the eagle over N says AH. Does this mean it is a 2007 manufacture?
I hope to get out and shoot it some more this weekend. So far I am extremely pleased!
