All I can add is that for quite some time my DOA SP101 was my concealed carry gun in an upside-down shoulder holster ala McQueen in Bullitt. If I was wearing elephant-leg jeans I could get in a boot-top with no one the wiser. Had a set of Pachy's on it, and it shot just fine. Drawback was that it was rather heavy for the size. But I think that's why it shot so nicely. Wish I hadn't had to sell it, and I'll probably replace it at some point. Maybe after I get my "every barrel length N-frame" project complete. Which means probably never.
