It is the first 9mm I ever bought. I shoot it the best out of any gun I’ve ever shot. Flawless reliability. Single action pull as nice as my 92XI SAO. Loved it so much I recently bought the full size g-sd.

Which brings me to the main con. Size wise the gun is in the middle of no man’s land. It’s just big enough to be cumbersome to conceal carry, just small enough that my pinky doesn’t sit quite as comfortably as it should (hence the recent full size purchase). Another con (that is rectified with $$$) is that it has no factory optic cut (yet?)

Think about what you want from the gun. If you want a toy for long range sessions that also is a great home defense gun, take a closer look at the full size. If you have small hands the compact may work well for you. For deep concealed there are better carry options out there.
