i've owed the p95 and the p97 (.45 version) the p97 was the lightest kicking .45 acp i ever shot. both guns were accurate and reliable, and I shot them a lot. They are like a lot of double action autos, thick and bulky through the slide. The only reason i went away from them as carry guns was the long double action trigger pull. I had to work a lot harder at it to get good results on the first shot than with something like an XD.. For the real reasonable prices they sell for they are hard to beat if you dont mind the long double action trigger first shot.
