In 2019, Walther Arms rolled out its unique PPQ Q5 Steel Frame, which provided extra weight in a dependable and ergonomic package that was perfect for competition or range use, thanks to its low recoil.

Now, in 2020, Walther released another Steel Frame offering in the form of its Q4, which offers a shorter barrel and and optic-ready slide. Even with the shortened barrel, the steel frame of the Q4 makes it a great range shooter.

Check out our American Rifleman First Look video above for more details.
