Gap in Walther PPS: Defect or normal?

[ericsean]

Excuse the simple question, but I've been a revolver guy all my life & my recently purchased Walther is my first foray into semi-auto. But, that gap I'm seeing between the slide and the frame, is that typical or some type of assembly defect?

I sense no problems with the action, but I haven't even hit the range yet and wonder if I should get it checked out before I shoot a round with it.

I have the same gun, yes it is normal! Many semiautos are like that! You will love the PPS M2!

Welcome to the world of modern firearms. Yes, that's quite normal.

Thank you for looking into my question.

I have one. Great shooter. Probable the best "fit in your hand" pistol made. Some question the sights but I have no problem.

I couldn't agree with you more, sir. Have to do a bit of a pinkie wrap on 6-round/concealed mag, but the added dovetail on the 7 & 8-round fit like a glove.

I have the PPS M2, Its my go to carry gun above any other gun I own! and do love everything about it but I must say as far as "best fit in MY hand" I would give it to my CCP! Its easily the best gun I have ever picked up! As far as FIT! But I do feel the PPS M2 is a much better gun! Imo.
