I had not heard of it, but it seems there's a lot to like if you can shoot it well.

Sensitivity to recoil is very personal. I think it has something to do with the way that the grip fits an individual's hand -- though I can't get funding for a scientific study. ;-)

Jim, thats the one. Hers is in the stainless upper model. Seems like the grip size and angle of grip suits her well.
We may try to make it to Marksman monday eve. I think ladies shoot free that night.
She did mumble something to the effect that i had too many boxes of 9mm and she would try to help me with it. ( how nice of her)
The mag is somewhat hard to load (small single stack) but i use my uplula loader on it and works well.
Keep on shootin' :fire

I think there's a lot to be said for those ergonomic grips.

Slap a set of tritium night sights or a laser on that baby and you're ready to rock and roll. :fire

Congratulations on both the new gun and on having a wife that is prepared to protect herself.

You just don't get better than sharing the shooting bug with the love of your life. :fire

If you are coming to College Station anytime soon you can check out Champion Firearms. Be sure to check their schedule though as they sometimes do CHL classes on the weekends.
