Walther Arms is launching the new PDP Pro-X Parker Mountain Machine, the latest evolution in Walther’s Performance Duty Pistol (PDP) lineup. This new pistol  has been designed in collaboration with Parker Mountain Machine in order to bring more performance and precision to the world of handguns.

The PDP Pro-X Parker Mountain Machine is crafted to meet the demands of serious shooters. This firearm combines Walther’s TEQ (Trigger, Ergonomics, and Quality) with input from Parker Mountain Machine to deliver a unique shooting experience.

There is a 4-inch slide with a threaded barrel on the PDP Pro-X Parker Mountain Machine which is matched to the compensator for enhanced performance. This custom compensator was designed specifically for the PDP in order to reduce recoil and muzzle rise. Inside the frame is Walther’s Dynamic Performance Trigger that has a crisp, clean break with a short reset. The PDP Pro-X also comes equipped with an aluminum magazine well and base pads for quick and efficient reloads. Magazines are available with 18- and 20-round versions which work with both the compact and full-size grip configurations.

“We are incredibly excited to collaborate with Parker Mountain Machine, an aftermarket favorite among Walther owners, to bring the PDP Pro-X Parker Mountain Machine to life,” said Rob McCanna, President and CEO of Walther Arms, Inc. “This partnership combines the best of both worlds—Walther’s legendary performance and Parker Mountain Machine’s innovative design. We are confident that this model will exceed the expectations of even the most discerning shooters,” said Jarod Legsdin, owner of Parker Mountain Machine.
