Walther Creed is a solid pistol offering a few pleasant surprises

Hickok45 gives us a closer look at the new Walther Creed that made its public debut at SHOT Show earlier this year.

Heโ€™s pleasantly surprised with the Creedโ€™s trigger, but does note that the bore axis is a bit higher than he would like. The Creed also features an orante grip texture, but Hickok notes itโ€™s still a little to slippery for him.

Waltherโ€™s new pistol is hammer fired with a โ€œpre-cockedโ€ trigger action that feels like a striker fire. โ€œI could live with this trigger on all my other pistols,โ€ says Hickok.

With an MSRP around $400, the Creed has only a few shortcomings that are easily outweighed by its solid design.
