The Walther PPQ M2 listed here, serial FCS0581, is a modern-production compact striker-fired 9mm with a 4-inch barrel. It has three-dot sights, an ambidextrous slide release, an accessory rail, a Tenifer-finished slide and an FDE polymer frame wrapped in Talon Grips grip tape. The bore and the overall condition are both rated excellent, and three additional magazines and the original case come with it.

In Illinois the PPQ M2 is a home-defense and range pistol in the compact class, with a rail for a light and grip tape already applied by the previous owner. The spare magazines take the pressure off a range day. The ambidextrous slide release suits left-handed shooters, and the FDE frame with a dark slide is a combination Walther does not offer on every run. Condition is excellent, so there is little difference between this pistol and a new one apart from the grip tape.
