Analysis

This 9mm semi-automatic pistol offers a compelling package for shooters seeking a full-sized duty or personal defense firearm. Its accuracy is noteworthy, delivering consistent performance at typical engagement distances, thanks to a well-designed barrel and sight system. The ergonomics are a strong point, with a grip that accommodates a variety of hand sizes, ensuring a secure hold during extended sessions. Reliability is another asset, as it functions smoothly across a wide range of ammunition types with minimal malfunctions. However, maintenance can be somewhat involved, requiring attention to detail for proper care. Parts availability may pose challenges in certain regions, potentially delaying repairs. The trigger pull is crisp, averaging around 5 pounds in single-action mode, though some users might find it slightly heavy in double-action. Felt recoil is moderate, manageable for most shooters with proper grip and stance, making it a practical choice for diverse applications.
