This 9mm polymer-framed pistol offers a compelling package for both novice and experienced shooters. Its accuracy is noteworthy, delivering tight groupings at typical defensive ranges, thanks to a well-designed barrel and sight system. Ergonomically, the grip fits a wide range of hand sizes, with customizable backstraps enhancing comfort and control. Reliability is a strong point, with consistent performance across various ammunition types and minimal malfunctions during extended testing. The trigger pull is crisp, averaging around 5 pounds, which aids in precision shooting, while felt recoil is moderate, making follow-up shots manageable for most users.

Additionally, sourcing replacement parts may pose challenges in some regions, potentially delaying repairs. Overall, it’s a solid choice, though users should weigh these practical considerations against their specific needs.
