After seeing one and pickin one up in the store, I could not pass on trading something in to get one! Everything about it seemed well thought out .........very comfortable, nice controls, easily broke down and reassembled, smooth trigger,adjustable grip sizes, etc!
Got in some trigger time this afternoon, and was further impressed. I've bought/tried & traded more pistols than most folks would even believe, and I got a feeling that I finally found a keeper! I was worried about transitioning from the glock grip angle that has become second nature over the years, but have laid that worry to rest after a bit of range time. It is going to take some time to get used to the whole single/double action hammer deal, compared to the Glock/M&P/Springfield striker fired whatever you call it actions!
Glad to see (with the sights centered on the slide) when shooting off of a rest that it placed shots dead on @ 20 yards....can't stand a new pistol that needs windage to shoot where you are aiming when using a ransom type rest.
No issues or malfunctinos of any kind, fired about 70 rounds. Gave it a quick clean/degrease & lube before using it (had a slight overdose of heavy grease in it).
Groups were a little bit better than average off the rest @ 20 yards, compared to what I'm used to. Doubles went fine, and left,right,left,right drills on steel plates were made easy with the glow-paint sights that tracked well with the eyes, shooting with both eyes open. Sight picture was unusually easy to maintain! Shot with 3 types of ammo, all produced similar results......including steel cased wolf.
Note the unusual pattern on the empties from the chamber,.... wonder what they're thinking was behind this?

The front 3rd of the casings measure .382 and the rear 2/3's measures .393
So far, I am highly impressed with this thing!
