Default Walther PPQ M2

I have been offered a Walther PPQ M2 9mm 5" in a trade deal, I have no experience with them other than some internet searches that spoke favorably of them.
Can anyone share their thoughts on this gun?
Thanks in advance

Ergonomics are good, very nice trigger, by that I mean it is light, which helps with quick follow upshots. If you are same area as the person who owns it see if you can take it to the range. If not I suggest you rent one before making the trade. Reason being some have said the trigger is to light for them.

I own and keep it in the bedroom.
You will not find a better made pistol.
Also, their USA Center is in Ft. Smith, Arkansas.
They are affiliated with Smith&Wesson in the same facility.

Considered to be one of the top striker fired pistols on the market. The trigger is fantastic.

If the trade is right, I'd go for it. The trigger is outstanding and the very reason I bought one. Very accurate and easy to shoot well.

The trade went off without a hitch, less than 300 rounds fired, 4-15 round mags, FO front sight, Talon grips and two holsters.Brought it home and looked at it closer, what a fine firearm, looking forward to some range time.
I valued my trade @ $500 so I feel that I got a good deal.
Thanks again for your input.

Shot 100 trouble free rounds thru it this morning, it took a few mags to get the feel of it and I ended up shooting some nice groups.
I have been using red dot optics for the last few months and going back to open sights is tough with my aging eyes.
