Analysis

This 9mm semi-automatic pistol offers a solid option for shooters seeking a balance of performance and affordability. Its accuracy is commendable, delivering consistent groupings at moderate ranges, making it suitable for both casual plinking and defensive use. The ergonomic design fits comfortably in most hands, with a grip that supports natural alignment during firing. Reliability is a strong point, as it cycles smoothly with a variety of ammunition types under typical conditions. However, maintenance can be somewhat cumbersome due to a less intuitive disassembly process, which may frustrate less experienced users. Additionally, sourcing replacement parts can pose challenges, potentially delaying repairs. The trigger pull is crisp, averaging around 5 pounds in single-action mode, though some may find the double-action pull heavier than preferred. Felt recoil is moderate, manageable for most shooters, ensuring control during rapid follow-up shots.
