Only difference between the gen-1 PPQ and the m-2 is the mag release. The paddle is superior but the thumb button easier for me. And it's the same as my other guns so no re-training. It's a great mag release! Perfect for me.
As for the G-19.. I want one too! But then I have to change those horrible sights. $119. Then a trigger job. $150-200... Then it's like my PPQ But not as nice in the hand. Oh.. And after the $200 trigger.. PPQ trigger still wins.
PPQ is just cheaper to get the gun I want.
Still love the G-19.. But it's no PPQ
