Analysis

This 9mm semi-automatic pistol offers a solid option for shooters seeking a dependable firearm for both range use and personal defense. Its accuracy is commendable, delivering consistent groupings at moderate distances due to a well-balanced design and quality barrel. Ergonomically, the grip fits comfortably in most hands, providing a secure hold during extended sessions. Reliability is a key asset, with the pistol performing well under varied conditions and minimal malfunctions when properly maintained. However, maintenance can be somewhat cumbersome, as disassembly requires patience and familiarity with the design. Availability of replacement parts may pose a challenge for some users, potentially leading to delays in repairs. The trigger pull is smooth with a moderate break, though it might feel slightly heavy for those accustomed to lighter pulls. Felt recoil is manageable, aligning with expectations for a firearm in this caliber.

This is a very sturdy gun and shoots very well. I have had mine for twenty years and it is my favorite backup gun.
