Ok, got it out. Shot the following:
-100 rounds WWB 115 gr. FMJ;
-50 rounds Blazer Brass 124 gr. FMJ;
-10 115 winchester silvertips;
-10 124 gold dot
-10 147 gr. Winchester Ranger T
The Good:
-100% reliable with everything tested. Function was perfect;
-accuracy was excellent (once i figured out the trigger-took a couple mags-see below and see pic below at 10 yards) ;
-great grip, i have to hold a little lower than normal as i think big hands might get a little slide bite but i held a little lower and no issue; Conceals well in my jacket pocket. A little heavier than my old Glock 43, but i have a safety and 3 more rounds in the CSX;
-nice big 3 dot sights,
The "To Note" (notice i did not say "Bad"):
-trigger is a little quirky. Took about 3 mags to get it down. There is really no reset. Pull, let it all the way out, pull again, repeat. If you try to release until reset you will short stroke it. I actually like this because i will carry in a pocket holster cocked and locked and its not discharging unless the safety is knocked off and the trigger gets pulled;
-it was surprisingly a little snappy but not at all unpleasant. It was fun to shoot and i could have had fun putting a couple hundred more rounds thru it just didn't have the time. I think i was surprised only because it was an all metal pistol, and i had in my head it would be less snappy.
-I have 10 round mag here in CT. The 10th round was very hard to load. But i could do it. Once loaded with either 9 or 10 the mag expanded so it did not "glide" (took just a little pressure) in and out but it functioned 100%. I think until the new mags come out i will probably load a round, chamber it, then put 9 in the mag when i carry it for 10 total.
Conclusion:
If you are looking for a reliable, accurate, metal, concealable, with good sights, carry 9mm with a safety then get one. I was and this pistol is a homerun for me.
If that's not your spec sheet then get a Glock 43 (which i had and loved but traded for a 43x MOS) or a Sig P365 (which i had and hated-too small for my hand).
Target below was 2 mags at 10 yards.
