Most Helpful Positive Review Recoil management
Installed in Walther PDP 5" match polymer frame. I highly recommend as long as you use this product with the correct expectation. Walther pistols in particular have a high bore axis which leads to a very snappy recoil pulse. The weight and design of the factory recoil spring/guide is fairly heavy to rapidly decelerate the slide's rear travel and rapidly return it into battery. The pistol's design; especially coupled with the use of the 4" compatible spring being used in a 5" barrel's slide, causes the muzzle to dramatically rise above the target "snap" then force the muzzle below the target o...

Great quality & reliability, some improvement to felt recoil

by Chris, Verified Owner from OH, United States Written on July 31, 2025
Overall, the weight and quality of the recoil spring/guide rod assembly is very noticeable. Metal finish and spring quality all seem top notch, which they should at this price-point. The DPM assembly dropped into my 4inch PDP seamlessly and after ~500 rounds, has not impacted the PDP's flawless reliability whatsoever.

Recoil reduction with the DPM system is subtle, though it may be more noticeable in the longer slide/barrel PDP models. Shooting a variety of ammo, the PDP still feels snappier than a G19/G45, VP9K, or P10C, but I do think the DPM spring makes some difference in getting back on-target for quick follow-up shots.
Pros:
  • Quality
  • reliability
Cons:
  • cost
Best Used for:
  • competition
  • duty

Walther PDP upgraded recoil spring

by JD, Verified Owner from TX, United States Written on May 30, 2025
Good upgrade...not necessarily needed, but if you can afford it why not...stainless steel, so there's that...would give 5 stars but if you need your purchase you'll be waitin a long time to get it...bought several items from opticsplanet.com and there seems to be no urgency to get items shipped out to the customers...so if you can wait a while then their prices are comparable...would not be my 1st choice to deal with...
Pros:
  • Got the item as advertised
Cons:
  • None
Best Used for:
  • Walther pdp

works great!

by Waltherboy87, Verified Owner from OR, United States Written on February 8, 2025
I really like this recoil system. It seems to work well. I didn't have any cycling issues. It is easier to rack the gun. I didn't notice a huge difference in the recoil itself. However, I did notice it was easier to track the dot and get faster follow-up shots. Also, I like the idea of having an all stainless steel recoil assembly over the old plastic one. I recommend it to anyone who has a pdp and wants to upgrade their gun. For under $100, it's worth every penny.

DPM recoil management system for walther 4.5 pdp

by Mark, Verified Owner from FL, United States Written on April 22, 2024
Install took 20 seconds, worked flawlessly and was noticeably easier to manage recoil. Shot the new guide rod with 147gr. Winchester ranger 1. Very accurate very smooth and I'm very happy with this purchase. I believe it is a must have for the walther. My PDP is my duty weapon and is better than ever(it was already amazing), and payed with the overwatch precision tac trigger..... It is a game changer. Highly recommend and as always... Great service and unbeatable prices!!
Pros:
  • Fit, function, ease of use, price point
Cons:
  • None
