Analysis

This full-size service pistol in .45 Auto caliber offers a solid platform for shooters seeking a classic design with dependable performance. Its accuracy is commendable, delivering consistent groupings at typical defensive ranges, thanks to a well-balanced frame and barrel alignment. The ergonomics cater to a wide range of hand sizes, with a grip that facilitates a firm hold, enhancing control during firing. Reliability is a key asset, as it functions smoothly with various ammunition types under diverse conditions. However, maintenance can be somewhat demanding, requiring regular attention to ensure optimal performance. Parts availability may pose challenges for some users, particularly for custom or replacement components. The trigger pull is crisp, averaging around 4-5 pounds, which aids precision, while the felt recoil is noticeable but manageable for most experienced shooters, though novices might find it somewhat stout.
