Great video, love the Q5 match

I really appreciate that you pick a side. So many reviews take a middle of the road approach and that doesn't help us. You say what you see as the differences and you make a choice. May not be my choice, but you pick a side and I admire that! Thanks for the great videos and hopefully soon you will do the Q5 vs G34 MOS vs TP9 SFx (especially interested in the SFx comparison to the Q5) Thanks again!

Sig is unlikely to offer other sight plate options but springer precision has had them out for a month or so. So there is aftermarket support for other optics.

👍👍 Thanks for your good review,as always. PPQ for me. I bought the PPQ M2 Od Green with the rebate and the VP9 LE Gray with the rebate too.

Great professional review and comparison.

I just got the Q5 Match. I have not shot a firearm in over 6 years. The first day I went to the Range with the Q5 Match they had some interesting Zombi targets. I put it up, the first shot in the Zombie’s left eye, second shot right Zombie’s eye, 3rd shot right in the forehead. I stoped and looked at the gun and though to myself, this gun is possessed.

You know this video was made in Canada by the number of rounds shot at the range, 10. BTW I enjoy all you videos, great presentation that is clear, unbiased and informative.👍

FOUR WORDS TO END ALL WORDS!!! YOUR MILEAGE MAY VARY

great job as always. thank you. I've been enjoying p238 equinox and nightmare carry. thank you.

The Q5 Match was made for production competition; it’s what I use.

Thanks for the review! Now i know what to get!!

Great job! You made a definitive choice. So many gun guys are afraid to pick a clear winner. Thank you!

Dang KS!!You're gonna need a bigger safe! 😜. Thanks for the side by side. 👌

Of course KS has the exact video I'm looking for! Awesome

Good to see another KS native doing firearms vids. Great vid. Love my 320 Carry.

These are great reviews! Would be nice to see the targets as a comparison after the shooting. Have subscribed!

18 secs to review excellent. Thank you.

As usual, great review! Ramble mode on: I have the Q5 match and the compact 320 RX. Actually, 2 different x-change kits with multiple barrels from 9mm standard and threaded, .357 Sig and .40 SW and about 14 different grips and a bunch of mags, so I have a lot invested in it. Yeah, the X series is a better pistol than the regular P320, but it is very similar. Here are a couple reasons that turn me off of the X series Sig: It doesn't come with suppressor height sights and you lose the rear sight when mounting a red dot -- same for the Q5 match. Also, you are losing one of the greatest parts of the P320 which is modularity of grip modules. The X series only come in black and they have a totally different grip than the regular P320 (which I love). So yes, you can use the X slide on regular P320 grips, but it's not the same gun. No balancing weight in the grip and a totally different feel. I've only been to the range once with my P320s and Q5. I shot both Sigs in 9mm first and shot better than I have ever shot in my life. Then I switched to the Walther for about 30 rds. and my results were worse, but that's most likely because I didn't spend enough time getting used to it, not to mention figuring out if the red dot was aligned properly. I just ran out of time. I need to spend more time lining up my red dot on the Q5, something that was simple with my RX because it had co-witness sights. It was dead-on from the beginning. I LOVE the Q5's trigger and looks. They are both great pistols!

I have a Match 5 and trijicon green dot........its amAzing...flat amazing. was worth the wait..was worth the money. sold my hk vp9...just don't need it now.

Great video! How about the Q5 match vs. Canik TP9sfx?

In the market for a Q5 match. I had my ppq out last night at the indoor range and for me it always makes me look good. My ppq is my go to pistol. If someone broke into my home that would be the gun I would grab to protect my family. I own glocks, cz's, h&k, canik but I most often gravitate to my ppq. That being said i think if I had to keep one it would be my ppq. Thus, I am now looking for its bigger brother so I could slap a venom red dot on it and have some fun. Great video and quite often I agree with your picks. Happy Holidays

Love the PPQ, suggestion is a Q5 Poly X VP9 Long Slide.

Very nice comparison vid as I would love to shoot either one someday...I don't think you could go wrong with either...Good couple of guns as love your collection...Good stuff...

Great ...thanks...now I want 'em both.....Thanks Man!

Great video, I liked them both, couldn't make up my mine so I ordered them both :-)

Magpul if you are watching, here is another market you can step into. There are many companies that offer mag extensions but at a premium price. I'm no expert but I think that designing an extension would be more cost effective than designing a new mag for every pistol out there.

I thought the x5 had 21 round magazines. Are compatible 10 round magazines available in the extended form? Or were the 21 rounders only loaded 10 rounds?

Nice comparison, two very nice guns!

Both great guns but if i could only have one i have to agree with you good review!

Running a Holosun HS507C on mine takes the Trijicon plate Works great have Vid out on it and LPA fiber optic rear sight upgrade as well.

Nice review of both these fine pistols. I'm a little partial to the PPQ because of the ergos.

Well, i am just thinking About getting a gun for Competition Shooting and those two are at the top of my list. So thx for the Video - will help me in my decision-making.

I have more time with my Q5 than all of my P320's. First I think the Q5 has an amazing trigger, and amazing ergo's. I love shooting it, and since I don't have a red dot, the lack of co-witness is a moot point for me. This is not to say I wouldn't mind adding yet another P320 to my trio. lol I would also go with the Q5, excellent review as always. Have a great weekend brother!

You'll be hard pressed to find a striker fired gun that will outshoot the walther ppq/p99 pistols. I like the p320 line as well, but I give walther the slight edge over the polymer sigs as well. Just bought a ppq 5" for cheaper than a glock with the rebate. Glad I did, I'm getting 1" groups with this gun at 25 yards. That's the best I've ever shot with any handgun. Watch brokosok's video of the accuracy he's getting with his Q5 match from like a year ago

thank you. keep up the good work.

If the weight is the reason you can go with the q5 pro steel frame, it also helps with the recoil

I have installed the Romeo 1 sight on my FNX 45 Tactical (without any adapter plate) and it turns out the Deltapoint 2 Pro, Trijicon RMR, and my Burris FF3 all have the same bolt pattern (with the Deltapoint being 1 mm too long for my slide cut out). So while many state that the X5 is only made for the Romeo 1, I don't see why the sights I have mentioned and others, would not bolt on. BTW, the Romeo 1 works great, co-witnesse perfectly, and has that big window (that fits that big slide well)! Lastly, I have shot both these guns and it will fall into the personal preference category to which to buy (still cannot make up my mind).

KSGG, do you have experience with the Glock 34? I was wondering how the Q5 compares to it in terms of shootability. I've heard it has snappy recoil, despite being a long slide gun. Although I guess if I were worried about recoil, I'd be best off getting a Shadow 2 lol. Still curious about the Wather though!

Just bought X5 , obviously it'll be few weeks before I can pick it up here in NY , but I never knew it's set up only for Romeo red dot. I was deciding which red dot to get fit Tp9sfx that I can use on X5 , that narrows it down. Lol

Thanks for taking your time reviewing these weapons. I just knew about this Sig today and I've seen some reviews for the Q5. I'm going to purchase the Sig Sauer X5. I like the longer grip on it but I hate the only option for the Romeo 1 sight. I have a Canik tp9 sfx as well. So let do some shooting.

I'm pretty sure the Q5 was made for IPSC's Production class which has a 15 round per magazine cap.

looks like you kept the q5 on target better. another thing worth mentioning is im pretty sure the x5 doesnt fit in the box in its initial configuration

Hope you are doing great KS ! Question ? P320 X5 or the Sigsauer p226 legion Sao ? Looking for my next purchase . Both have become Massachusetts compliant recently . I know that they are different in many ways . Just wanted your opinion since you had an X5 and have a 229 legion.

My wife's hk p30L got stolen. She's looking at the q5. I just keep hearing great things about it. Anyone know the best place to get aftermarket accessories for the q5?

I'm curious. As you shoot do you notice a level of incline change or and angle change on your firearm? The reason I ask is because I notice with each shot you lean back more and more. If you watch your hat you notice with each shot if falls back more but your firearm stays. Your stance leans as you shoot. Either way great groupings but something to point out that you may be able to tweek and become a bullseye shot.

I've Got 17Rd magazines for my PPQ-M2 9mm and I have TWO of them !!! Both I added Talon rubber grips and Meprolight Night Sights !!!!

Great Video Brother! Would be a hard decision indeed! Carry On!

I love Sig. It's what's on my hip in the P938. However, I am a huge Walther fan and I have several including the Q5. The Q5 is an awesome gun and right out the box it's ready to rock. Mine is cresting 500 rounds now and the more I run, the more I like it. The only complaint I have is the switch to the thumb button mag release. In my opinion that was a mistake by Walther. Of course they had to bend to the pressure of the US market. Once you get the hang of the paddle release however, going back to the button is a step back. The paddle is, by design, fully ambidextrous. Honestly, I don't have trouble running either system and the Q5 is a great platform.

Im getting them both, I'll have the xfive on the 20. Still waiting on Q5.

I have a Walther PPQ M1 and it's a great gun and by far the best factory trigger of any comparable gun.

Great video, Thank you! I have the X5 and like it, but that Walther is sweet too. Both very cool looking firearms. Once I adjusted the rear sight, I was failrly accurate. Fun to shoot. Would love to see a video of yours on the Legion

Nice video. I would like to see a Sig Sauer P320 X5 vs CZ P09 Tactical (or regular) comparison video. I don't know if that's a possibility for you to do, but I would like to hear your opinion. Thanks

Q5 Match with a Leupold Delta shoots so well, it is almost like cheating. Amazingly accurate. Great double taps with that reset.

If I were shooting for competition . . the Sig X5 is the pistol. However, for a more all arounder . . the Walther. One isn't better than the other. My choice would depend on the intended role of the pistol. Sig and Walther are probably my two favorite firearm OEM's!!

Hey KS! Another great "If I could only have one" episode! Love 'em both! I would love to own them both. I agree the winner is the Q5 Match. The only shortcoming is the magazines. A competition gun deserves more capacity. It's great that it comes with 3 mags, but they should have been all 17 rounders, like the 2 they include with the Q4 TAC. The Q5 screams top notch ergos and trigger. The big plus is that you can choose your own reflective red dot. The sights are an improvement over the PPQ's and will work. Love the feel in hand in terms of quality. Great pistol that can serve a variety of purposes. They're both great pistols in their own right.

Nice video. I really like my Q5 Match. Accurate and fun to shoot

What do you think of the aftermarket trigger options for the Q5? At the moment there appear to be two options: one from Springco, which reduce the trigger draw weight and safety plunger spring tension (improves take-up ease and smoothness) and an Apex flat face trigger kit that reduces draw length and reset distance.

Just bought the Q5 Match !!! Awesome !!!!

Slide cuts arent for balance, but to achieve proper reciprocation rates, with the added weight of being so long.

With the just released all steel Q5 Match it definitely becomes more of a competition pistol.

Good video. I'd pick the Q5 as well. Q5 VS TP9SFX would be a good video. SFX is almost a clone.

Nice comprehensive comparison.

These guns look insane I want one...

Have the Q5 Match and a Sig Legion P226 SAO. They are both great. I like the Legion best because of the trigger, but I shoot the Q5 slightly better. For me, the P320 grip is a little too thick (side to side) for my liking.

Totally agree with your pick.

Springer Percision makes plates to fit any red dot on the X5

How about Sig P320 X% Legend vs PPQ Q5 Steel Frame Match

I agree with you. The Walther is far better than the SigSauer P320-X5. I own both guns and I have realized that the P320-X5 tends to shoot about a foot higher than aimed. I had to use this gun in a competition IDPA match and in order to be accurate I had to aim a foot lower to be on IDPA center circle. At that time I didn't own the Walther Q5 Match at the time of the competition.

I had the Q5 match I traded it back to the gun store, it was just a bit too light for me I tend like/gravitate toward heavier pistols..I bought the Blue Moon X5 ((Googly Eyes)) 34OZ I believe.

Great review

That pre-travel was a long millimeter 😂

I have the PPQ 5 Match and love it but really want the Sig X5 really bad!!

Good comparison. My favorite gun is the Q5 Match.

Thank you!

new for 2019 "SF" line Q5 Match steel frame (and guide rod) think I found my "match" made in heaven

im gonna get me a walther before the rebate ends. you have a lot of nice shit

Nice! Take out the magwell of the Sig, though. That way we're comparing guns that play in the same division (production). I think that's the fairest way to compare guns: make them both competition division-compliant.

Agree, 15 round mag for the Q5? Should have also given it a flared magwell too. Nice gun though, dad wants the x5.

Stevie wonder can hit target with Q5 MATCH....deadly accurate!

Nice lookin pistol

P320 x5 vs CZ tactical sport Orange? Which one for competition on a budget?

Sig Sauer X-Five

Walther always bro!

I’ve noticed on pretty much all your videos you don’t test the reset by pulling the trigger again from reset. We can’t see if there is any more take up.

What about the Rex Alpha ? Any comments are welcome.thx

just cool you did this comoarison

Springer Percision offers plates for you to run almost any other red dot you have for the X5

Walther Q5 Steel Frame

Springer precision makes sight plates for the x5.

Loved the vid! After waiting 4 freaking months and still no P320 x5 I ordered, I cancelled and went with the Q5 match. I think I will do just as well as the so called “purpose built” x5. I am not going to be burdened by Sigs Remington -like trajectory, whether it be the need for the voluntary trigger recall or the P365 debacle of late. Walther is a great gun. Your point about the optic is spot on. I have a Romeo 1 on my Canik, coincidentally the one I ordered to go with the x5 when it came. Canik gives you adapter plates, as it should be. Romeo dialed in is a fantastic optic, dead nuts. However, now again with the Walther I’m free to choose my own optic. F Sig and their BS. I’m done, they won’t see another dime of my money. I’ll look at Leupold or Vortex for my optic I think.

Agreed

The Q5 steel frame would have been a better comparison because it’s closer to the weight of the Sig Sauer X5 .You did however give the nod to the Q5

you will not find a better trigger on a striker fired pistol over the ppq q5 match! I caved a bought one and it immediately became my favorite striker i have owned and up there with sig p220 tacops when compared to hammer but at under 700 bucks! I have never been able to shoot 2 inches at 20 yards previously or shoot 10 rounds in an inch at 10 yards prior to this q5! the trigger leads to that and great ergos! I agree strongly with his choice. shit I would carry or even use as a gtw !!! and that makes no sense but its just how amazing the gun shoots. I love that walther makes them pass a 5 shot in under 2 inch at 25 meters before they send them out also! they send you the target as well as the person who signs off. bonus= its in German lol. most people don't known this but fn does the same. 5 - 5 shot groups for ars or scars have to shoot under an inch at 100 meters before they get signed off and shipped out. sorry off topic but walther makes great firearms! the only thing I wish was better is actually the reset. I love a super short reset haha but its not bad by any means. when you are used to a geissele sd3g reset these feel like a lifetime of waiting haha

Why your x5 looks different from others

I bench shot every polymer I got my hands on, nothing comes close to the PPQ 5". I only wish I have the Q5 to play with.

I have a Q5 and it is very accurate and reliable. I wouldn't sell it. I have a lot of Sigs but not the X-Five.

I own both and the XFive feels much more in terms of quality. I like the grip weight for balance. The Walther is kinda rattly even. The Sig is the winner in my opinion. Downside is the sig plate only being for romeo 1.

I agree

I own the Q5. Makes me look good at the range shooting pistols. It's a superb pistol.

I think the Sig out shot the Walther, and I noticed you shot the Sig much faster than you shot the Walther. If you had taken the extra time shooting the Sig the grouping would have been even better than it was. Even so, I think the Sig groups were better than the Walther.
