I cleaned these guns yesterday and the Walther is as easy as it gets for takedown. The HK was not a pain in the ass to takedown but definitely not as easy.

Also I had never experimented with the PPQ's alternate backstraps and took the opportunity to do so. Good thing as both of the others felt noticeably better in my hand. I would still say the HK holds the edge for grip comfort and it has not only interchangeable backstraps but grip panels as well.

And of course the PPQ navy has the edge for corrosion resistance in marine or other harsh environments.
