Can we all just admit,
That this is by far the most underrated good handgun out there.
bumping for steyr goodness.
Why is this shit so cheap though?
>>29725794
Fucking Trapezoid Sights, how do they work?
It's a fedora Glock
Literally a gun made for people who want a Glock, but they are too much of a special snowflake to buy a Glock
>>29725794
It looks ergonomic af, but I heard they had some early quality control issues, and since they sell in suck low volumes apparently dealers still have defective models in stock.
Personally I think it looks pretty cool, and it's priced right
>>29725794
>underrated
More like
>I have this shitty gun that nobody has
>YOOOOO I TOO GOT THIS SHITTY GUN NOBODY HAS
>MY NIGGAAAA
>>29725794
Only problem is that they look so hideous
>>29726082
I don't have this gun though.
I do plan on getting one, since the price is so nice.
I love it, only downside is no manual safety,
>>29726082
Not OP but why is it shitty? I heard outside of the first batches with QC issues they're pretty nice.
I just want one because it looks futuristic as hell, matrix level shit. Also those Austrians apparently make good pistols
>>29725794
>Developed by the guy who was fired from Glock

Yeah... I'll pass.

I want one.
The only thing I don't like is how you can see daylight through the frame and slide towards the front.. Drives me fucking nuts actually
Still want one tho

>every "underrated WWII guns" thread
>>29726225
A lot of guns are like that though, especially polymer.
>>29725948
>$200 cheaper than a glock
Nah some of us are just poorfags
>>29726115
dumb fuddposter
>>29725948
You mean it's a glock with different controls, better stock trigger meme sights that are still better than ball in a cup.
A custom glock is better than a regular steyr,
But there's not much you can do to a steyr.
So for the money, the steyr is a better glock, due to the fact the glock only gets better with aftermarket stuff.
But let's be real, the Walther ppq is the best for money and is super underrated
>>29726225
wow that'd piss me off
lol and i wanted to buy one in .40 meme
Ooh baby u so good
bought one for 500 sold it for 500.
I like the way it looks but I just don't care for it outside of that.
>>29725948
It's better than a glock on every level.
>>29726288
>Walther ppq
Didn't even know about it until now, looks pretty ugly desu. How's it function wise?
Also when I think of Walther I think of James Bond, yet I can't see him using this...
>>29726383
Honestly I think Craig used a P99 for a movie or two. From what I hear though the PPQ is comfy as fuck to hold, reliable, and IIRC comes with paddle and traditional mag releases now so you have choice in that regard.
>>29726383
Walther PPQ M2 and PPS M2 is goat tier
I own both
>>29726288
PPQ 45 is god tier
>tfw no 5in version
>yet?
>>29726461
>salt water
If your ppq didn't have rust problems before, it does now.
>>29725794
Mmm, that God-tier high grip profile and that sexy slide.
>>29726480
If your ppq had rust problems before, it doesn't now.
>>29726461
>READ INSTRUCTION MANUAL BEFORE USE, YOU WORTHLESS MEATHEAD
why do they insist on printing this on the actual gun itself? I'd never buy a gun with that on there
>>29726480
>implying tennifer finish would rust
Not mine unfortunately, I am limited to a P99 for now.
>>29726526
I assume it is to deflect legal blame in case of Shillary suing the gun industry or the like.
>>29725974
that''s why you get the A1
Did someone say PPQ thread?
Bought mine for the trigger.
>>29726609
>>29726552
>>29726527
>>29726461
No
NO
NOOO
This is a Steyr Thread, make your own walther pewpew Q thread.
>>29726552
Most gun manufacturers put that on a discrete spot, like on the bottom or something like that; deciding to print it on the side is nothing but bad decision.
>>29726609
bought mine for the trigger and ergos
fucking glorious pistol
>>29726638
sorry steyr friend
>>29726656
You're right man.
Every time I pull my PPQ out at the range, people laugh at me.
I hope I never have to use it in self defense, my assailant probably won't take the gun seriously.
>>29726609
>dat threaded barrel
Did it come with it or did you buy aftermarket from Jarvis? I really want one for my P99.
Are PPQ/P99 barrels interchangeable? I know the slides are, though I wouldn't shoot it like that.
>>29726735
Dunno about interchangeability, but mine came with the barrel as is. PPQ M2 Navy. Was on sale on gunbuyer for around $550.
>>29726735
Did you read the safety manual?
Guns can be dangerous
>>29725794
I passed on a chance to trade a Ruger Security Six that I hadn't shot in years for a almost NIB M9 and passed on it. Still have the Ruger for some reason. Still haven't shot it.
>>29726115
Wait? You can buy a gun with a manual safety? Why?
Love mine. 7k rounds and counting.
I used to have one. It was alright. The biggest problem of the styer is lack of spare magazines and being able to find a decent holster. Also the sights make it hard for precision shoot but it's decent for man size targets inside 20 yards. Sucks for shooting small things like beer cans or Clay pigeons.
They're a good alternative to the Glock, to people that don't like a brick that shoots bullets.
Yes, I own a Steyr an S9 model.
>>29726762
I think you are supposed to point the end with the hole at the bad guy? Only after you pull the slider.. Idk I never opened it.
>>29726758
Wow great find. For me it was between the PPQ Navy and P99, but the cheapest PPQ N was on gunbroker for ~$700 so I opted for the DA/SA trigger and decocker for $499. No regrets, all it needed were night sights.
>>29726814
How much that holster run you bro?
>>29726383
Pierce Bronson used it in 3 last films, but not goldeneye.
Craig used it in his first two
>>29726992
I got it for under $40 when Old Faithful sold it as a build your own kit. They are close to $75-90 now with just plain kydex (no color or pattern)
The C9-A1 looks nice.
Somewhat shorter, looks comfy.
>dat bore axis
I'm fairly jelly.
>>29726866
I've always gotten my mags for 15 or less on CDNN. Most of the popular hybrid iwb companies make a holster for the Steyr as well. With the trap sights, I'm solid out to about 30 yards on a comp 22 target or clays. Beyond that with a pistol (sans revolvers) and I should have brought a rifle. Not saying I cant hit over 30 yards, just a bit less consistently.
>>29726866
Wait, why can't you just balance you target on top of the sights?
>>29725794
As an M9A1 owner protip they suck
Spongy trigger, boring reset, slide is just short, doesn't sit inside the frame despite looking similar to a CZ, muzzle flip no better than any competitors
Grip is meh/10
IMO they're a shit
>>29727745
>being this much of a glock shill
The gun is known for exactly the opposite what you just posted
It has a nice clean trigger, it's reset is short, and the grip is comfy as fuck.
Hickok here, to laugh at you.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l7FgNcQ3AQY
>>29727788
Well, the slid is only easy to grab due to aggressive rear serrations. Unless you have the l9, you can't grab the front easily
Trapezoidal sights are memes
The trigger is short, but that doesn't make it good. The reset is short too, but it's not very audible or tactile.
It's a good polymer double stack 9mm that absolutely meets its asking price.
But a ppq is the same price with less meme, better trigger.
>>29726117
Because contrarians with no experience handling the gun say so. If steyr knew how to advertise and the aftermarket bit these things would be pretty common
Had an M40A1, sold it after a year. Loved the ergos, acceptable trigger (amazing for a striker fired gun), but it was unreliable. The striker would fail to cock when cycling intermittently, and it tore up brass, brass shavings would find their way into the striker channel. Every 300 rounds or so the gun would just stop working period, and i would have to take out the striker and dump out the accumulated brass bits, and i would have a literal pile of shavings and chunks fall out of the slide guts.
Steyrs cs is supposed to be top notch, but I sold it rather than send it in because I wanted to consolidate me pistols calibers down to just 45/9mm.
>>29725794
Bill's has a couple C models, but I want an L9-A1...
>>29725898
>Why is this shit so cheap though?
Are you seriously complaining about a pistol being both better and cheaper than a Glock?
>>29727884
to quote hickock
>I couldn't ask for a better trigger
it's what its famous for. but whinge on dude
>>29727884
>Trapezoidal sights are memes
>Sights that point easily and intuitively are memes
>>29729685
>Bill's
what state?
>>29726104
No way man, they're pleasingly futuristic. Also the closest you can get to looking like the Lebedev.
>>29729845
Minnesota.
>>29729885
m-me t-too
>>29725794
Bought a M40A1 awhile back for a good price, even if I would have preferred he M9A1. Kept it 2 months then got rid of it; .40 is especially snappy out of this gun. Remember kids, never settle for .40S&W, even if the gun is priced to move.
>>29729914
At least Steyr started it as a .40 and brought it down to 9mm instead of the other way around like Glock did.
Got one of those S9A1s. Thing of beauty, egos are dream, could barely tell it was a 9mm. Only issue is i need to get out and shoot it more
>>29727363
Looks horrible, there's like 30 degrees difference between where your finger is pointing and where the barrel is pointing.
Bumping for the faggot that just made a new steyr thread.
So I'm curious, in terms of size, does it go L>M>C>S?
>>29731105
That was me. Sorry.
But seriously, when is the last time /k/ had a thread on Steyr handguns?
>>29731181
I don't even remember. I actually forgot they existed before this thread.
>>29725794
It's ugly
>>29730691
Put a Glock or M&P in your hand and look where your fingers line up vs. where your trigger finger lines up. The Steyr tries to address some grip stability issues, as well as allowing you to pronate your grip for more wrist stability. I like the idea.
>>29732359
This. I think part of the reason for my quick follow up shots and accuracy has to do with that fairly aggressive grip angle. When compared to the rest of my pistols, the only one that is as natural for me to shoot both accurately and quickly is my P08.
>>29726526
Why do lawnmower companies have to put "don't stick your hands under running mower" warnings?
People do dumb shit and aren't held accountable for their own dumb actions. Our money-at-all-costs culture has done this to us.
>>29726151
>>no manual safety
>>downside
>Pick one.
I agree i like a manual safety especially for IWB carry. I flip it on while holstering
then flip it off in the holster.
>>29726120
>>Who went on to also develop the caracal
>Yeah... I'll pass.
Wasn't the caracal a good design just shitty arab manufacturing and quality control?
>>29727788
I literally own one retard you do not, you watch videos of people shooting them on the Internet
>>29725794
I have a L9A1. I don't have much experience with firearms (eurofag here, started shooting last year), but it simply fits like a glove. I am in love with it.
>>29726352
>having to do rocket science just to put rounds on target
Yeah, nah, fuck Steyr
>>29733990
It's actually a very instinctive sight alignment, that's just excessive detail on it.
>>29733880
Do want. The L looks nicer than the other models and seems better refined on features.
>>29725794
i carry a steyr CA 40 daily ... my god do I love that firearm
>>29733990
i absolutely love the steyr sights... that plus the ergonomics you get on target SOOOOOO fast after drawing its ridiculous. i just wish they had some tritium for night shooting
>>29733990
>Lining a sight up
>Rocket science
Turn in you're guns. You're too stupid to have any.
>>29725943
very well
>>29733815
I own one, and you're full of shit.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l7FgNcQ3AQY
anyone that says the steyr sucks has never fired one
>>29725794
Steyr makes nice shit.
if I had to rate major handgun manufacturers it would go;
Steyr
HK
FN Herstal
Glock
Sig-Sauer
>>29734429
Or has an older one

>>29733372
By most accounts yeah. That was a pretty slick looking pistol. Bit of a shame
>>29733815
So tell me of wise anon, wtf is the difference between your opinion as an owner vs other owners on the internet that say the opposite of what you said that would mean the anon should value your opinion more than several others
>>29725794
Mmm, that is sexy. Never heard of them before, either.
>>29726288
The PPQ is not underrated. Tragically overlooked, like everything Walther makes, but not underrated. Everyone loves that gun.
>>29726383
The PPQ is kind of ugly and a bit big. I couldn't see Bond with a PPQ as his main sidearm. I think the ppk works best with the character.
>>29727015
nope. Bond has never used a PPQ. Craig and Brosnan used gen 1 p99's. Went back to the ppk after quantum.
>>29727788
>anyone who disagrees must be a Glock shill!!!one
Show some insecurities more retard
Show me where the trigger "safety" touched you
>>29737624
Thank you, I really did mean to say p99, but I got distracted. The ppq didn't come out till 2011 anyways, right?
>>2973814
Yes 2011
>>29737679
>trying this hard to hate something thats good
I don't get you people.
So self destructive.
>>29741870
They are just glock or HK fags that are mad that a gun better than theirs cost less.
I love it when they rage.
>>29725794
Wait... Does this nigga right here convert INTERCHANGEABLY from 9 x 19 to .40 S&W!?
>>29742376
It can. IGB Austria makes a drop in bull barrel for the .40 that just requires $15 mags from CDNN. They also offer a .357 sig drop in that doesn't even need new magazines. Really for under $700 you'd have both a 9mm and a .40 in the same ergotastic package.
