Analysis

This 9mm full-size pistol offers a solid option for shooters seeking a dependable duty or personal defense firearm. Its accuracy is commendable, delivering consistent performance at typical engagement distances, while the ergonomic grip design accommodates a variety of hand sizes, enhancing control during extended range sessions. Reliability is a key asset, with the firearm cycling smoothly through various ammunition types under standard conditions. The trigger pull is crisp, averaging around 5.5 pounds, providing a predictable break that aids precision. Felt recoil is moderate, manageable for most users, though follow-up shots may require slight adjustment for newer shooters. On the downside, maintenance can be somewhat cumbersome due to a less intuitive disassembly process. Additionally, sourcing replacement parts may pose challenges, potentially delaying repairs. Overall, it’s a capable choice, though users should weigh these practical considerations against their specific needs.

Surprisingly great full-sized 9mm
By JKnicker on 10 Jul 2023
I was surprised by this pistol. Though my hands are smaller than most guys, I found the grips easy to hold and aim. The trigger has little take-up, then a light, quick break. Recoil is very manageable. I am not a sharpshooter by stretch. But, at 21 feet, I was able to put 5 test rounds in a 3 inch grouping using the 3-dot sights that are easy to pick up. Field stripping is pretty easy. I feel this pistol is too big for concealed carry, but would make a great home defense gun with its front rail. Or, have a great time target shooting.
