This is my first time buying a pistol for personal protection and Target shooting. The Fire arm functioned well, recoil was a little heavier than sig but love the features and ease of the racking was great I look forward to many more range days.

Love this pistol for my students that have weak arm strength. Also, it's eats any 9mm I feed it. Probably because this has a physical intern hammer vs. being a striker fired gun.
