Congrats Ship! You can strap on your PS90 and your FiveseveN and have 80 rounds to fire before you have to reload.
Zombies will be sorry they came to your house!

Reminds me of the Grendel P-30. Buck Rogers would be proud.

Mr Wreck, that's not a Walther! Since we are on the subject of Walthers, do you have any plans to purchase a Walther PPS Slimline 9mm or have you had a chance to look at one up close? Looks like a pretty good carry weapon since it's so slim.
TxPhantom, on your forum and others.

If I didn't have a P99 compact, I might get one. But, that is my main carry gun, and then I have a Keltec 32 for when I need something even smaller.
The size difference between the P99c and the PPS would make zero difference to me in concealability (it is the exact same size, just a tiny bit smaller). Unless it got closer to the Keltec in size, I don't feel the need to spend almost $600 on it.
It does look interesting, although I am not a fan of the QA trigger they put on the gun.
As I have my carry guns, I'm set. I never shoot small guns as well as fullsize ones anyway. So, for the purposes of having fun at the range, it's not worth me buying it either.

Appreciate it.
For a long time, I thought the gun was ugly - but it's grown on me over the past couple of months. And now that I have 1, I really like it :)
