Just ordered one of these, looks like a very nice pistol. Anyone have one and want to share there opinions? Just waiting for my ATT to pick it up so i'd like to learn about it. It's my first pistol. :) What a great price and the big thanks to the guys at Elwood Epps. Very helpful and informative.:cheers:
 
22a

I have one, bought it for my daughter mostly because of price and I was not sure if she would continue to enjoy shooting, well she loves it, easy to strip, easy to clean, never had any feed or fail to fire issues, more accurate than I am, She will never part with it. I highly recommend, you are gonna like it, even I like to shoot it ( when she lets me of course):D
 
Does it shoot well southpaw?

I haven't read much about this gun. The 7" one has me interested. How much did you pay for yours? How's the trigger pull? How much are the extra mags? Are there any aftermarket parts available?

It's fully ambi.

I had one for a while. Very accurate and reasonably reliable. The trigger is nice and light and the sights are good.

The only issue I had was it would not feed Remington bullets well. It has no firing pin block so dropping the hammer on an empty chamber will peen it.
 
I got one recently as well...I find it to be accurate and with most ammo, no failures of any kind. I say "most" because it failed to cycle properly with some standard velocity Winchester stuff that a buddy brought to the range. Also, a couple of quirks that I noticed...on mine anyway, the mags have to be seated smartly like you would with a 1911, otherwise the gun will not go "bang" when you pull the trigger as it will not be fully home, also, watch finger pressure on the front strap...we found that it was easy to inadvertently push the mag release while shooting...so if the gun won't go "bang" in the middle of a string, check for that!
