Analysis

This 9mm semi-automatic pistol offers a solid option for shooters seeking a classic design with modern functionality. Its accuracy is commendable, delivering consistent groupings at moderate ranges, thanks to a well-balanced frame and precise barrel alignment. The ergonomics cater to a wide range of hand sizes, providing a comfortable grip that enhances control during extended sessions. Reliability is a key asset, with the firearm performing dependably under various conditions, even with budget ammunition. However, maintenance can be somewhat cumbersome, requiring meticulous attention to detail for proper upkeep. Parts availability may pose challenges, as sourcing replacements or upgrades isn't always straightforward. The trigger pull is crisp, averaging around 5 pounds, which suits most users, though some may prefer a lighter break. Felt recoil is moderate, manageable for experienced shooters but potentially noticeable for novices, making it a versatile yet demanding choice.
