This 9mm pistol offers a solid performance for shooters seeking a reliable concealed carry option. Its accuracy is commendable, delivering consistent groupings at moderate ranges, making it suitable for both defensive and practice scenarios. The ergonomic design ensures a comfortable grip, accommodating various hand sizes with ease, which enhances control during extended sessions. Reliability is a key asset, with the firearm functioning well under diverse conditions and with different ammunition types. However, maintenance can be somewhat cumbersome, requiring more frequent attention to keep it in optimal condition. Parts availability may pose a challenge for some users, potentially delaying repairs or customization. The trigger pull is crisp, averaging around 5.5 pounds, providing a predictable break. Felt recoil is moderate, manageable for most shooters, though those sensitive to kick may notice it during rapid fire. Overall, it’s a practical choice with some considerations for long-term ownership.
