When I was researching for my concealed carry choice, Kahr did not feel good in my hand, and I would even say painful (the grip is so ruff!). I chose the Walther PPS back in May and COULD NOT BE MORE HAPPY. I know you saw it for over $700 in the chart, but I don't even know where you could buy it for that much. When I've seen it in stores or on online stores, I've seen it sell for $600-$675. If you go on Gunbroker.com, you'll find new in box ones for $580 or so. I spent time looking for a deal and found one in like new condition for $510 with three magazines. Now that price does not scare you so much, I'll tell you why the Walther PPS in either 9mm or .40 is the ultimate choice. At only 1" thick, and being so light, it not only becomes completely invisible to all, but so comfortable that you will always want to take it with you when you leave to house. Related, the one question that weighed a lot was, if I don't feel like or want to carry it for whatever reason, what the hell is it good for?
As for feel in the hand, one would think that I can't say too much because everyone's hand is different, but the PPS has three different capacities of magazine:
A 6 round that I can get two fingers on
A 7 round that all three fingers fit on
And an 8 round that has a luxurious amount of space for my pinky.
Not only are there different magazines to adjust how it feels in the hand, but also, two interchangable backstraps that offer a different grips for different sized hands. Basically what I'm saying, it's easy to get a great feel for your hand when you are telling the gun what you want it to do for your hand.
Next, Walther is one of the TOP names in gun making. Fit and finish is superb. It shares the same ultra hard and resistant coating as a Glock, it breaks down just like a Glock (fast and easy). In the ppstalk.com forum, you can see hundreds of posts reporting perfect range trips with story book like accuracy. Those who have shot thousands of rounds, have reported continued function with absolute reliablity and durability. I have only put 550 rounds through mine, but so far, performance has been ideal.
So in conclusion, I am convinced that it's the ultimate best concealed carry choice that is offered to the world. On top of all of that, I think it's quite attractive.
