Ha. It's a sweet gun! So, yeah. Probably.
It does look really sweet, I'm going to have to get one for sure. If you haven't seen the post about the slim grips for the SF check it out. Looks 1911/2011-ish and pretty thin, I like it.

These will be awesome, the regular ppq shoots amazingly well so this one is going to be fire!

Thanks Paul,
I fully believe he is worth training with - I was very impressed watching him train people in Oklahoma.
I totally understand needing downtime time with the family, an my hope was to train next year, regardless.
If you have an alternative way to contact him, I would be very appreciative.
I will look into Mr Herron as well.
Look up the thread for Max's class at the upcoming OK Sectional and contact Cary to get into the class and shoot the match. If you can't find it, PM me and I will get you Cary's contact info.

Walther sent me a replacement captured guide rod with lower power spring when I called saying I was having issues with low power factor rounds. The only mod the trigger needs is in the trigger safety spring if you have a very high grip.
That is your "need" not the gun. The gun will run fine as is and doesn't "need" any modifications for factory ammo.
When people speak in completes, as in "the trigger needs", means it doesn't work as it is from the factory and it "needs" to be modified or fixed to work correctly and that's simply not the case.

I've been reading everything I can I on this gun as well as watching all the YouTube videos available, and I'm confused and would like some clarification. At the last few NRA conventions, I do whatever the rest of you do, fondle everyone's guns, including Walther. I've noticed a nice improvement in their quality and feel. To their credit, they came out with a competition worthy firearm, the steel frame Q5. My confusion lies in their price point. My Sig P320 X5 needed a Gray guns kit to really blossom, so with the gun and the upgrades, I have about a grand in my Sig. Most people, whether they like Sig or not, consider them a step up in quality over some other firearms. The SF Q5 starts at about $1500 and from what you guys are saying, it still needs a trigger and springs. The question I've been long winded to get to, is the SF Q5 worth an approximate 50% price increase and then have to put in upgrades? I'd love to hear factual reasons as opposed to fan based opinions please.
It's not $1500, you can find them around $1150-$1200. An all steel frame cost more than a polymer infused grip. It doesn't "NEED" a different trigger or springs, but most people modify them to their personal preferences. I shot mine stock for the first few months I had it and have only changed the recoil spring and guide rod. The stock trigger is great.

Well, I don´t say that I´m overtrained, but does anyone of you guys actually have a Q5?
Don´t get me wrong, I don´t want to bother you at all, but the Q5 is a bit special in the recoil department, a bit snappy.
The slide is very heavy, the grip peace very light, and the most weight of the slide is on its rear, so that there is some real muzzle flip.
Repeating Mr. Hwansik, there is a HUGE difference between the polymer and the steel frame.
So all I want to do is getting as much help as possible.
I have both and have shot both plastic (last year) and steel frame (this year) in competition. If you change recoil springs in the plastic Q5 you can get it running pretty flat. I use a 13# 1911 flat wire spring (in both) with an M&P Tungsten guide rod in the plastic and a zr tactical guide rod in the sf, both have relatively the same muzzle flip, which is not much, but the felt recoil is less in the sfq5.

I would be interested

Chad, do you think we're going to churn up some mud as we race? Just wondering if some different shoes might be in order. I still have my clod-hoppers I got for Gator Classic last year but I hope that is overkill! That was some serious mud truckin' I hope never to repeat! Along with accidentally kicking the hotel room dresser and breaking some toes the morning of match day.
I hope not! No as long as it doesn't monsoon the next few days it will be dry and good to go. But if it rains between now and then it will be moist, not ankle deep like gator though.

Let's all pray, to whoever you pray to, do a little dance, seance or whatever it is you do for good luck, that we have no more rain this week and into the weekend! The range is saturated and there is some drainage issues due to the flood that has caused some erosion and covered the drains on a few bays.
Bring sunscreen and bug spray!!!! Also it is forecast to be hot and humid by the weekend so plan on hydrating accordingly. We will have water jugs on the range so make sure you bring a bottle with you to fill it up and re-use. There will be a few coolers of water bottles but plan to use the jugs for the most part.
Lunch will be a local mexican food truck, Tacowasso papas locos. They have great prices, and food, and they accept cash or cc.
If you are staying local to Owasso, 10 minutes from the range, there are plenty of good places to eat.
Mexican: El Tequila https://eltequilacocinamexicana.com/ or best hot salsa and good food visit El Fogon http://www.elfogonowasso.com/
Pizza-Italian: Andolini's https://www.andopizza.com/location/owasso/
Steak and more: Smoke https://smokewoodfiregrill.com/owasso
Modern/Unique: https://www.madeatsok.com/#home-section
Sushi: Akira https://www.akirasushibars.com/ or Hapa https://www.hapaok.com/ (both are good), Japanese Steak House https://www.ichibanjapanesesteakhouseok.com/
A good place for drinks is PJs https://www.facebook.com/pjspubowasso/
Plus all of the regular places you can think of....
See you all this weekend!
