That's a pretty good price, but I personally don't care for the PPX in comparison to Walther's other pistols like the PPQ, PPS and CCP. And apparently I'm not alone; the PPX is no longer in production, which is probably the reason for that price in the first place.
They're on sale right now at Rural King, if you have a store nearby.
Yeah, they look weird, but mine fits well in my paw and it's a good shooter.
