Not a bad choice...

A few things I would master with this weapon:

1. Decide whether you want to carry it with the safety on or off. I would carry it without the safety on, but if anyone wants to carry it with the safety activated, they should include that in their training (draw + turn off safety).

2. I think this model has a magazine disconnect safety. I would try to remove it if it can be removed. I know the SR9c I have had a mag disconnect safety that I removed, but I doubt this one is built just like it. But if you're comfortable with the gun not firing without a magazine in it, that's your prerogative.

3. Dry fire, dry fire, dry fire. This trigger is LONG and HEAVY. The trigger pull on my Kahr is long and smooth, but it takes a while to be able to master accurate shots with that trigger. Practice makes perfect. Be sure to get that trigger pull down while focusing on that front sight.

Just a couple suggestions... Take em or leave em...

Enjoy your new piece and carry daily!

I bought with a safety so I could use it. I am already practicing it and take it off everytime I pick it up so it will be second nature. If I need it, there will be no time to think. I just feel better with one while its loaded.

It does. I am dont see why you would want to discharge it without the magazine in though. Not real fimailiar with this feature.

I am. They all seem to be long in this range but it is very smooth.
