Before acquiring my Walther PPS M2 9mm, I did some research.
This included watching videos, and reading reviews. Nothing too in depth, just making sure it wasn't a lemon. I had the PPQ before - a great pistol. In fact, a favorite. It was just too large for everyday carry.
Quite by accident, I realized that if you put your thumb over the rear loaded chamber indicator, you cannot pull the trigger on a loaded chamber without considerable pressure and discomfort.
My biggest gripes with striker fired pistols is reholstering them. I carried a HK P7E for years despite its shortcomings because of the safety of the design.
Is this something that is common knowledge? If it isn't, Walther really dropped the ball on not making this capability front and center.
After over 500 rds, I consider the PPS the finest carry pistol I have ever owned.
