Ergonomics and trigger performance

The PPQ M2’s cross-directional non-slip grip and polymer frame are designed for positive purchase and repeatable hand placement. The trigger on this platform is widely recognized for a short, consistent reset—an advantage for controlled follow-up shots during defensive encounters or high-volume training sessions.

Durability and control features

Tenifer-coated slide and barrel resist corrosion and maintain finish integrity after heavy use and exposure to the elements. The slide includes front and rear serrations for secure manipulations, while the ambidextrous magazine release supports both right- and left-handed shooters. An integrated MIL-STD-1913 Picatinny rail accepts lights or lasers for low-light applications. Safety is addressed with a firing pin block and trigger safety built into the design.
