Analysis

This compact pistol in the 30 Super Carry caliber offers a solid option for concealed carry and personal defense. Its accuracy is commendable, delivering consistent groupings at typical self-defense ranges, while the ergonomic design ensures a comfortable grip for a wide range of hand sizes, aiding in control during firing. Reliability is a strong point, with the firearm cycling smoothly through various ammunition types under standard conditions. The trigger pull is crisp, averaging around 5 pounds, which provides a good balance for both novice and experienced shooters. Felt recoil is moderate, manageable for most users, though it may feel slightly sharper due to the smaller frame. On the downside, maintenance can be somewhat intricate, requiring attention to detail for proper care. Additionally, parts and accessories for this specific caliber may be less readily available, potentially posing challenges for customization or repairs.

Great Tack Driver

Love this S&W. Some say it feels like a 9mm shot. I beg to differ. The recoil is noticeably less if not substantially. So accurate it's almost magic..
