No matter how hard I tried, I just could not make myself like this gun (and I did try, as I loved the G26 I sold to get it), but it just didn't work out. I suppose if it had been a 9mm it might have had a chance, but it was just too much of a handful (or not enough in the hand) for me in .40S&W. I ended up trading it and a couple of other things in to get me another G26 (and that deal cost me my 422, but as much as I like my SW22A, the 422 became expendable). Oh well...I still have my trusty SW22A which I do so dearly love
