Analysis

This 9mm compact pistol offers a solid choice for shooters seeking a reliable concealed carry or personal defense firearm. Its accuracy is commendable, delivering consistent groupings at moderate ranges, thanks to a well-designed barrel and sight system. The ergonomics are thoughtfully executed, with a grip that accommodates various hand sizes, promoting a secure hold during extended sessions. Reliability is a key asset, as it functions smoothly across a range of ammunition types with minimal malfunctions. However, maintenance can be somewhat cumbersome, requiring more time and effort for disassembly and cleaning compared to similar models. Parts availability may also pose challenges, potentially delaying repairs. The trigger pull is crisp, averaging around 5.5 pounds in single action, though some users might find it slightly heavy in double action. Felt recoil is moderate, manageable for most shooters with proper grip and stance.
