The WALTHER P99 that I had in 9MM was a TACK DRIVER! It's .40S&W counterpart, however, wasn't....

I briefly carried my P99 on duty with my PD until they began issuing us G22s. I MUCH preferred the P99 over the G22.

I just bought a model 99 9mm with the 16 round mags and love it.  I have only shot it a couple of times but from what i have seen it should be a fine gun.

By brother has the Walther P-99 in 40S&W.  This gun really smooooothed up with use and is an absolute tack driver.  At 50 ft.  I have seen him shoot all black on a NRA target.
