    Walther QA versus AS triggers...

    Why do AS triggers seem to be more popular than the QA variant? I've noticed AS Walthers selling much quicker.

    In theory I like the second strike ability of the AS trigger, though I have never actually fired one.

      The AS trigger operates more like a traditional DA/SA trigger
      The QA trigger operates similar to a Glock trigger

      Given a choice I would always go with the AS trigger. The QA isn't that bad, but its longer and heavier than the AS trigger with a longer reset.

          I have both an AS and a QA P99 and though I have no problem with the QA trigger, the AS is better. I swapped out the Stryker spring on my QA for a stock Glock Stryker spring and the trigger pull is much better.

          Walther has discontinued the QA variant of the P99 though...

            A p99 AS in 9mm is my next gun. I just need to sell my cz p01+tru glo and 4 mags.

            Or trade it for one.

            I did not know they stopped making the QA p99

              The new PPQ replaces the QA.

                    The PPQ and PPQ are not QA systems or AS. I evaluated the differences and AS seems to be far safer. If you chamber a round and de-cock it, it takes 11 pounds and a full trigger pull to fire. That is the anti-stress part. If you don't want to accidentally fire off the first shot as easily as the successive shots, it is a good thing. If you chamber a round and leave it cocked, or on successive shots, there is almost no travel and less than 5 pounds to pull. The QA is between those for every shot, and just doesn't feel as good, harder to put into words.

                      (Highlighted in red) Negatory. The anti-stress mode is when you first chamber a round, the trigger is in the full double action length but single action pull weight, if you de-cock an AS trigger it is in double-action mode, not anti-stress

                        I appreciate the clarification. I just like that mode, and would use that if ever in a stressful situation, must be why I associated it.

                          second strike capability is overrated. if it doesnt go bang you should tap rack and fire again.

                          Walther calls the PPQ a QD or quick defence trigger

                            1. No

                            2. Yes, they still make them.
