WALTHER PDP COMPACT - 9MM - 4" - 10+1 - BLACK - CA LEGAL

Walther PDP Compact: California-Compliant Duty Precision

The Walther PDP Compact is a California-legal, striker-fired pistol chambered in 9mm, featuring a 4-inch barrel and a 10+1 capacity designed for restrictive states. This magazine is modified with a proprietary in-house block and rivet through the baseplate to ensure compliance with California’s 10-round limit, maintaining the pistol’s renowned reliability. Built with a black polymer frame and a Tenifer-coated steel slide, it weighs 24.9 ounces unloaded, offering a balance of durability and concealability for duty or self-defense.

Tailored for California shooters, the PDP Compact includes state-required features like a loaded chamber indicator and magazine disconnect safety, ensuring roster compliance. Its optics-ready slide with SuperTerrain serrations supports popular red dot sights (adapter plate included), while the Performance Duty Trigger delivers a crisp 5.6-pound pull with a short reset for enhanced accuracy. The ergonomic grip with Performance Duty Texture and three interchangeable backstraps provides a tailored fit, making it ideal for concealed carry or range use in the Golden State.

The permanent 10-round block guarantees legal compliance, allowing shooters to leverage the full-sized magazine’s handling benefits without exceeding capacity limits. The package includes two 10-round magazines, a mag loader, and a hard case, offering a complete solution for CA-compliant shooting. Whether for law enforcement, personal defense, or tactical training, the Walther PDP Compact combines cutting-edge features with regulatory adaptability, reflecting Walther’s commitment to innovation and quality.

WALTHER'S PERFORMANCE DUTY TRIGGER

The brand-new ‘PDT’ Performance Duty Trigger is Walther’s new and improved trigger system which has been achieved by shortening the length of travel and increasing the tactile definition of the trigger break. The incredible result is a highly distinct, recognizable feel for repeatable accuracy that will maximize your confidence. When you are READY to take the shot, this is the trigger you want.

SUPERTERRAIN SERRATIONS

The SuperTerrain Serrations are uniquely designed protruding serrations on the slide, allowing for quicker and more responsive hands-on engagement with the pistol. Instead of the standard subterranean cuts that are cut into the surface of the slide, Walther has broken the mold with a SuperTerrain design to raise the serrations above the surface of the slide offering a new more positive feel to operating the action. When you go to make READY, you will feel the difference the instant you put your hands on it.

RED DOT ERGONOMICS

The RDS Ergonomics on the Walther PDP are designed around making the switch to the popular red-dot sight system easier for the new RDS shooter and faster for the RDS veterans. The RDS Ergonomics have been engineered to allow shooters to locate the red-dot instantly when presenting, achieved by engineered pinky pressure and offhand support. The PDP grip angle is designed for a natural aiming position which complimented and coupled with the innovative RDS Ergonomics, allow lightning-fast acquisition of the red-dot. When you are READY to make the switch to using an RDS the PDP is engineered to get you there faster and easier.

MODULARITY

The PDP is the most modular and versatile pistol ever designed by Walther.
