I did manage to shoot fairly well with it but shooting it one handed, especially with my off-hand was a real pain in the butt. Now I know why I see so many shots fired by NYPD officers to hit a perp only once or twice. I was told that they basically dumbed down the guns to the lowest recruits ability to not have an AD. The NYPD had a few AD's when they were issued standard Glocks, so that is how they solved the problem - instead of proper and more extensive training. So once again all the Officers who do train and practice now must suffer with this absurd 12 pound pull.

Lets face it, what the city administration really wants is to lock all those pistols so no one can shoot them at all.
