Congratulations, you've isolated your choice to two underrated in the US but popular pistols in Europe. Both were desgined in response to the West German police trials that came after the PLO terrorist attacks at the 1972 Munich Olympics. The SIG Sauer proved the more popular of the two, but Walther sold 40,000 units German and Dutch police.
I favor the P225 because it fits better in my hand and it has better balance. I've only handled a P5 but I've never fired one. I did notice that the triggers pulls were smoother on the P225, but I can't say whether this is charateristic or only a result of the one I handled.
