LIberalism is a disease..
Been waiting for this iteration for 8 months. This copy was born on 5/19. Round count thus far (350) without the first hiccup! With the exception of "primer drag"I experienced none of the stoppages reported on earlier units
I fed it a mixed diet of military ball, Winchester, Federal, American Eagle, Sig, and Blazer in 115 and 124 grain. The ambi-safety is easily accessable and well positioned (similar to 1911). The low bore axis and fantastic trigger make this pistol a real pleasure to shoot. Short reset made follow-up shots easily controllable. The real surprise was the realatively light (felt recoil) for such a small/ light gun.
A slight learning curve some experimentation allowed me to shoot coffee mug-sized groups consistently at 10 yards. I did find that for me at least (other than deep concealment) the two additional 10 found mags were pretty much useless for accurate shooting.
My large hands coupled with he ultra-small grip required a much modified weak-hand-position and deep ( second joint ) trigger finger engagement for consistent groups and then only with the additional 12 round mag. The extended base allows for a comfortable grip.
I can see that some grip tape may be in helpful in the future for a more custom fit.
All in all I can't say enough good things about this model. IMO, it checks all the boxes for a quality, compact EDC. A truly great gun!

PS;
IF you are considering this gun be advised a that Maglua mag loader would be a wise purchase...your thumbs will thank you!
