It's almost two years since I have mine in 9 mm.
The only addition I made were the finger-grooved grips.
Mostly used in ISSF competitions (up to provincial level) as a centre-fire pistol. The best result was 574 out of 600. And, as a bonus - faces of other shooters with their famous .32 brands.
Can shoot led but the best results - with jacketed.
The bluing is weak point, that's true.
I've just started PPC with her.
But remember, this is bullseye pistol and I would not recommend it for IPSC because long barrel and high sights cause delay in rapid fire sighting.
