Ditto on that. It wasn't exactly a tack-driver but was reasonably accurate and mine never had any kind of failure in at least 500 rounds. Depending on your model the sights might be tricky to replace though if they are an issue.
One odd problem that I have consistent across several pistols is that Federal .22lr will end up ejecting a round but leaving the chamber empty after firing, with rounds left in the magazine. This happens with all varieties of Federal (Walmart 550s, blue 500 bricks, American Eagle bricks...
I bought a used EAA Tanfoglio Witness magazine (9mm, large frame), and while cleaning it I noticed that the top of the spring was bent at a weird angle. Have any of you ever seen this before?

2nd on wanting to hear about the recoil; I've been debating on selling my G42 and getting an LC9s. Have you tried shooting it with one hand and are you using it with the pinky extension?
Hello all,

Primarily interested in handguns, probably my favorite being my W. German Sigs.
Currently carrying an LCR.
