I see ya like the extended better. I suppose for idpa I would too. I practice with the shorter but occasionally throw in the extended. Dang I've only put like 700 through mine since I got it in april and I thought that was a decent number. I was thinking of doing idpa with it. Did you just do the bug or did you do the ssp or whatnot. Also, how well did it perform during it? Did you feel disadvantaged by the smaller barrel?
I have. 1000 through mine. I've never loved a subcompact gun more. Shoots great. Very accurate. I plan to buy another one and send it to get titanium color for a different look.
I shoot SSP and do not feel disadvantaged by the size of the shield. Sometimes handicapped by being 2 rounds less than my peers, other than that it often outshoots larger framed guns.
