Relief areas on the upper part of the grip housing help in this aspect too. The trigger guard has an undercut, allowing for a high, tight grip. The trigger has a safety tab, a la Glock, in lieu of the hinged unit of Walther's parent company Smith and Wesson. The extended magazine includes a grip sleeve for a more seamless feel. Like other subcompacts, it has a flush-fit magazine and an extended magazine for those preferring a fuller grip.

It comes with two sizes, small and large. The PPQ Subcompact has Walther's grip texturing around the grip, and swappable backstraps. Instead of the standard Walther button, the loaded chamber indicator is a witness hole on the top of the slide. It's also given a black Tenifer coating, and features coated a dual captive recoil spring and plastic guide rod. Angled serrations are on the front and rear of the slide for pistol press checks, and they're grippy. The sights are low-profile polymer sights, wearing three white dots on the standard model. The takedown lever is unique in that it's a U-shaped locking tab you have to pull it down and then do the normal takedown thing (check to make sure its unloaded, pull the trigger and pull the slide forward) which is kind of interesting. The frame has a 1913 rail for using an accessory. The slide release and takedown is ambidextrous, but the magazine release button has to be switched around if you're a lefty. There's a slide release, takedown levers and a magazine release, and that's it. The PPQ Subcompact, like the M2, is rather bare-bones in terms of controls. However, much of the song remains the same compared to the full-size version. The barrel, slide and frame are shortened to accommodate a shorter barrel and shorter magazine. The Walther PPQ Subcompact is.well…a subcompact variant of Walther's PPQ M2.
