Title: Speechless and dumbfounded

Post by: KFhunter on December 25, 2016, 09:16:21 AM: I've had my paws on one of them, it's a sweet gun. Not a lot of unmanageable flip but it'll slap your palm good. My only suggestion is you (or anyone you let shoot it) have a solid foundation and proper technique before you use that thing. A new shooter could easily develop bad habits starting off on a pistol like that.

You're gonna love it!
