CONFIRM Fitment Test:

• Install slide and ensure breech face smoothly clears  the front of the ejector
• If it slide collides/stops on ejector it is not compatible. Walther has many revisions. CHECK BEFORE ORDERING! 
•  

Compatibility: 

There are multiple iterations of ejectors. Some new PDP Poly ejectors clear, but others do not. The DPT ejectors clear the slide, but we cannot guarantee compatiblity at this time. We are working with Walther to determine which models have the requried ejector geometry.

Our Long Stroke PDP guide rod system will take your PDP Match 5" to the next level.  We went back to the drawig board and designed a new system that increases the slide stroke of the PDP to attenuate the recoil over a longer distance.  By eliminating the plastic spacer, the slide can travel futher rearward which allows it more distance to slow and softens the impulse as the slide hits its rearward stop.  The rod is 5/16" diameter and uses a custom ISMI 14lb spring.  We swiss turn the rod from stainless steel and the front cap/bushing from brass for added lubricity.  Captured design drops right in the gun.  Adding over 40 grams of unsprung mass to the gun helps further reduce muzzle rise. Will NOT work on a compact or poly frames, Match only!

• Will NOT work 4.5 or 4" PDP or 5" PPQ or Q5
• MUST remove the plastic spacer in the slide

NOTE: Springs, washers and end caps are wear items and are not warrantied. Spring life varies based on use and ammunition
