Sold mine to an acquaintance for $450 with an extra mag and a Galco OWB holster for $450.  He got a smokin deal.

Sure.  I wanted to get a Glock 26 instead.  The PPS is good gun and a great carry gun.  It was reliable and did everything I needed.  However, the vague trigger reset (besides just being annoying) slows down controlled pairs and overall ROF.  Plus, I just wanted a little more firepower which the Glock offers (10+1 and the ability to carry my G34's 17 rd mags as back-up).

Also there are no night sights for the PPS, major issue to me.  In fact, there are very few accessories at all for the PPS, whereas with the Glock, the sky's the limit.

That said, I wish I'd never sold it.  It's summer here in Fl, and the G26 is like carrying a baseball in your waistband compared to the PPS.  I'd buy that gun back right now if I could.

Oh, were you taking to the OP?

Merdoc, I know the feeling. So many toys , so little money.


Smoke, thanks for the info. I`ve been following this pistol for awhile. I want hear all opinions on it. I wish Glock would make a single stack 9MM. I was shooting my G36 yesterday
and my hand was not happy when I was done. I  a  9MM single stack  Glock  about the size of the 36 or a little smaller would probably kill off the PPS.

It would be perfect.  I'd buy one  right now.  However, I don't see that happening anytime soon.  The PPS is as close to a single stack Glock as one can get.  Well built little guns too.  Even shoot like a Glock with the big backstrap on.  If someone ever comes out with an aftermarket trigger and the big companies bring out some night sights for it I'll get another PPS
