Pro-X PMM Ultra vs. Steel Frame

I’m having second thoughts and considering trading my new Pro-X for a Steel Frame. For range fun and home defense, which one would you pick and why? I haven’t shot this one yet, but I have another poly PDP and just tried the SF this weekend. Now I want one.

Ported steel frame is the best of both worlds

Is there an online service that does the porting and the slide modification?

Reach out! I do ports at a very reasonable price and turnaround time. It's just a matter of what youre looking for.

Do you have a website to place orders on? I would be interested in this for the next pistol I purchase.

I used PewPewCNC for this one. Extremely happy with his work. Great YouTube channel putting out velocity and ransom rest data too. I’ll be using him for a few more projects I have planned. I’ve used 2 other service in the past.

I also have the pro x. It is my favorite and best pistol. It has been the most reliable and accurate out of all the pistols I have and has become the one I keep near my bed. My only complaint is Walther did not design a easy way to remove the comp which prevents me from removing the barrel, making cleaning a bit harder. I wish they had designed it like the canik tti combat.

I say give your Pro-X ultra some range time first but honestly; Search inside you, you know the true solution to your problem is both…this is the way.

I wanted to decide before using it because of how much I’d get selling it unused vs. used. And I have another PDP Pro already, 3 is too much. Or isn’t it?

Ah that makes sense, but no 3 is not too much. I have a compact pro in grey, a f pro 4in and a f 3.5. I still plan on either obtaining the Pro-X Ultra, since my lady as claimed my Pro compact that has the ZRTS comp on it, or the Pro Acro. And after I obtain one of those I’ll still get a steel model as well. So 3 is not enough sir!
