Walther PDP "Your Duty to be Ready" (Full Video) 

A good guy with a gun stops a bad guy with a gun. Good message

BEST. FIREARM. MARKETING. VIDEO. EVER!

HOLY SH*T!!! THAT WAS 1000 TIMES BETTER THAN ANY OTHER GUN COMMERCIAL IVE SEEN IN MY 20 YEARS OF LIFE!!!! I WANT ONE!!!!

This has a strong mesage about the importance of training and being mentally prepared. The pistol's presence made a lot of difference. Great video!! Hope to be able to look into this Walther.

Just bought a VP9 today and while looking at the VP9 gun clerk pull this new Walter out from the case and says, “you ever heard of the PPQ?” Well duh ofc who HASNT... “well they just released this new striker fired gun check it out.” ~~pulls PDP out from counter~~ “check it out. If you don’t buy this gun now i will at the end of my shift. Sure enough I bought the PDP went straight to the range and shot the shit out of it. I ABSOLUTELY love this thing. edit: yes I bought them both lol. Went to buy the VP9 and VP9 only, ended up getting both. Left the VP9 at home and took the PDP to the range and absolutely loved it.

This is one of the most relevant and well executed promos I’ve ever seen. Great job, definitely going to get my hands on one to shoot!

Excellent and creative use of cuts to emphasize training as a key aspect of every firearm owner. Well done, Walther! I own a PPQ and am sad to see it discontinued, but the PDP will continue its legacy. Can't wait to own one!

Holy cow, this commercial goes hella hard to eleven!

Damn that was intense. That’s how you sell a gun. But the countdown has likely already begun until RU-vid takes this down.

Man, this was a great commercial. I didn't realize how intensely it was hitting me until it was completed and I almost starting tearing up, haha.

The guy with the shotgun looks like Silent Bob lmao

Nice video with different aspects as shooters. Hope everyone understands that training is whats important. PDP looks like a home run right now.

"Armed Citizen Stops Mass Shooting", wasn't he like the only one left alive in the store at that point. In all seriousness though, Armed Citizens should always be the ones to stop mass murderers.

Sent chills down my back. I'm getting one. At least one.

There has never been a gun that had me sold as fast as this smh

This one will be a home run 😎 Love my PPQ so i am excited to see it in Switzerland.

Wow. Now that's how you market your product. I was already interested in the PDP at initial impressions but Walther really drives it home. Outstanding video.

With what just happened in Indiana this commercial is even more relevant you got to be ready.

Damm that was a powerful message, This need to be a commercial for the super bowl.. Everyone need to see this... Great job guys

ohhh man, I hope that dude had his USCCA card.

Love this ad so much I might get a PDP compact..

Finally a gun manufacturer that gets it. Great video!

Excellent societal and corporate message by Walther. It's clear where they stand. I even felt a bit emotional by the end. [I saw this video on their website and was so moved by it that I navigated to RU-vid specifically because I felt the need to express how impressive and important this marketing campaign is]

Walther’s get easily over looked. Great firearms. I own the PPQ and will get the compact PDP. Intense video though. First time I’ve seen this approach.

Love to see Will petty's vcqb tactics being displayed mainstream, dope video

Dang it guys. Stop making these awesome pistols! I already have a Creed, PPQ, M4, and M5 Match SF Pro! Now I have to buy another Walther!!!! Love my Walthers. Keep them coming and I'll keep buying them!

This video made me interested in the pdp. Then I saw how awesome the gun looks and it’s features and now I’m trying to hunt one down Edit: found a compact. Bought it and now waiting to install my optic Edit #2: so just giving out an update to anyone curious. You guys at walther have made by far one of the nicest polymer framed pistols I have ever shot. I mean the trigger is stupid good, the gun looks just amazing and the stippling is perfect. I’ve been running this bad boy with a holosun 507cX2 and man it’s been nothing but reliable. I’ve been shooting whatever I can find and so far 0 malfunctions with 800 rounds down range. Didn’t think I’d fall for this gun as much as I did. I’m a huge Glock fan boy but man, this gun is my exception.

Walther just earned a lifetime owner before I've even boughten one

This ad got me interested in the PDP. Bought one. That PDP made me want to buy a second one. So I did. For me, hands down the best pistol I’ve ever shot. My full size 5 inch is my EDC. It shoots so good, I got used to carrying that big boy in the front of my britches every day!

So I bought the 5" Full Size as a range toy... I was so impressed I bought the 4" Compact for carry. Absolutely outstanding pistols.

I'm a revolver guy myself, but that is a beautiful pistol.

I have been thinking about getting a PPQ as I purchased the .22 version since it was so cheap just for plinking, glad I waited as this will be my next purchase as soon as I can find one.

The fact that this only has 170k views is nuts. Cody and Jim put a lot of work into this. Best marketing vid ever!

The commercial is as cool as the gun itself. DAMN! Walther's going hard after the market now. 👍

Excellent representation of what could (and does) happen in everyday life. Just as Walther says, "It's your duty to be ready".

Outstanding job with the marketing for this! So many great messages in this video. Just because you buy a badass weapon doesn’t automatically make you an expert. It’s all about training and being able to recognize what is a threat and what isn’t, when to engage and when to take cover, etc. Best video I’ve seen from any manufacturer. A++

Ready to show this in store on the 19th!

Less a Walther ad, more a defensive use of a firearm education session

Watching this video makes me train harder at the range, in the gym and increase my situational awareness. No more wearing earbuds while going to the store, getting gas, or working in the yard.

This is the greatest commercial I’ve ever seen.

This ad is now, sadly, even more relevant than before. Get ammo, get training, get a weapon light and red dot optic. You need to be prepared.

Just bought the 4.5" full size. This gun is absolutely sick. The trigger is phenomenal, the grip is perfect, the weight fully loaded (18+1) just doesn't feel heavy, not sure how they did that. This the first Walther I've ever owned. I wanted the Q4 SF but $$ was a little to high for me. Now I have the best of both worlds. Hats off to you Walther. I think this gun will carry the PPQ's torch very well.

These guys are right. A good firearm can be a difference between life and death.

Well my wife says I need to get her this gun and after the best gun commercial of all time I've GOT to now!

BEST MARKETING VIDEO EVER

I recently bought a Walther PDP full size 5 inch-barrel for conceal carry (yes, it is a big gun, but I carry it concealed on me. It can be done. 6'00" 220 lbs). Anyway, this new designed handgun, called PDP for a good reason, is absolutely outstanding! Flawless, accurate, and combat ready. I own a few other recognized brand name guns, but the PDP is IT for me. Highly recommended 👍🏻

That was a damn good commercial , made me want one

Love my Walter PPQ M2 and the PDP looks even better

This just confirms what I already knew prior to purchasing my PDP...Well done ✔️

A big fail. The civilian forgot the groceries. 🤣

That was such a good ad I had to watch it twice

I love Walther weapons. I have the PPQ M2 in .45. It's a dream.

I want to give this commercial thumbs up twice somehow.

Had a Sig P320 in layaway @ a local shop. Found out about the problem of them firing on their own & got uncomfortable since I carry appendix. I then watched tons of top 5, 7, 10, etc. vids on handguns & noticed the PDP kept coming up. And after watching TONS of reviews, I liked what I saw & QUICKLY changed my layaway. The PDP compact is my new EDC. I LOVE IT!!! Getting the F-series (3.5" barrel) next.

Im a die hard walther fan but i dont see this replacing my p99 or ppq. Beautiful pistol.

Probably the best Ad I've seen for any firearm...ever.

I feel like I need to buy this handgun almost entirely because of the bold advertisement for it during these times. What a phenomenal way to advertise.

Imma have to cop one of these. Looks like a nice pistol. A worthy upgrade to the PPQ.

DAMMMMNNNN Walther stepping it UP!!

Wow that was great! Good job Walther! I got to shoot one of these today, seriously considering it.

I'm a French Shooter...Evevery body is about CZ and Glock...Litterally...You convinced me with this marketing Video...PDP Compact, Pkk and a P22 for fun !!

Now that is a great advertisement

Very powerful video. Love it. Looking forward to owning one.

What a great video it shows the reason why people carry every lawmaker should be required to sit down and watch it to show them the real world out there

Great video. Excellent message.

Thanks Walther.

Walther knows how to hit hard with these ads.

I’ve been in the market to buy a new 9 mm I bought it down to three guns Glock 43X the Walther Compact PDP, and the Taurus 3cx. I will be going with the Walther

Man the marketing department at Walther delivers. Amazing add👏👏

The best handgun on the market right now, no question. It’s the first handgun I have that feels like it was built from the ground up to be an optics platform, rather than the company taking an older design and just milling the slide. I would put Walther against any handgun company in the world. The reliability, accuracy, ergonomics, shooting experience, fit and finish are unmatched.

Very unrealistic commercial, the news will never show "Armed Citizen Stops Shooting" as a headline :P

The best video promotion

Just ordered my PDP this morning. Great video.

Damn. Whoever directed that commercial has a bright future in film making.

Thanks Walther. This PDP checks all the boxes. Best polymer SF gun ever.

This video is why I bought a PDP

Wow. Amazing commercial grate setup loving the new firearm. Will definitely check it out at my gun store

Amazing Pistol..This PDP model will sell very well I am sure of that!

I got freaking goose bumps! Beautifully done.

Just bought one. I love how smooth the trigger feels. Really good ad as well. Work hard. Train well. Shoot a lot. Hopefully, it won't be needed but better to be a warrior during times of peace than a gardener during times of war.

Finally a good gun marketing ad. Steyr needs go this direction.

Picked up my ppq 45acp last week, I'll be buying this as well

Right on

Awesome storytelling

Epic mini film

That is why I carry. To protect my family and my fellow Americans.

That was quite powerful. Best gun ad I'd seen so far in all my years.

I wanna see the day when CNN has the headline “Police: Armed citizen stops active shooter”. Never will happen but I would love it. Great promotional video. Gun looks amazing.

I just bought my PDP yesterday and I am so excited! My only complaint is that it only came with 2 mags when all other competitors comes with 3. I feel like I'm owed a mag for the price! The trigger is absolutely amazing and I am in love with the mag capacity of 18+1! The grip is so good my hand feels married to it! I'm hoping that when I order my RMR plate that walther will send me another mag with it. Great promotion video!!!

what a perfect message and showing the armed citizen!

Epic short film..we need part 2!! Merry Christmas

Nice video and better message. But the most important thing to get from this video is training, constant training, good mental health and awareness.

My agency switched from Glock to Walther. I was skeptical at first until I trained with it. Awesome pistol! Accurate, reliable and the trigger is amazing! I still have respect for Glock, I carried one for years, but it’s nice to have another choice.

Walther giving both the bad guy and the good guy Walther guns; "I'm playing both sides, so that I always come out on top"

Great message from Walther guys. They made their job really well, the next step is just about us 🤷‍♂️

Fantastic commercial. Beautifully done! I pick mine up today...

I just bought an PPQ Q4 Tac as my first gun. A PDP is definitely next on my list. I really like the look of the grip. It also looks like it'll work great with a sweaty palm like mines. Aside from being modular, being accessory ready is also a big factor. Saves me the money from getting someone to mill the slide and, towards an optic instead.

My favorite brand I have a Walther PPQ 40 S&W and I don't have a ton of range practice and the gun it's accurate as hell and looks amazing

Sou policial penal do Brasil, e tenho muita esperança de um dia poder comprar uma pra defesa pessoal, que a WALTHER seja bem vinda ao Brasil.
