I totally dig it when threads like this get derailed by someone like GenuineGirly. Seriously. This is why TFP is the best forum on Earth.

I don't really wanna get into a technical discussion because it's super boring and nobody here really gives a shit... so...
Yeah, I just don't like it. It's nothing amazing in a world of nothing amazing pistols. It may be a good gun for some but I rate it up there with clunky Ruger (gag) and FN (meh) and *cough* Taurus *cough* and other "service pistols" that don't really bring anything new to the table except parts/accessories that you can't get as easily as a Glock or Sig or S&W. If you have a boring 9mm pistol, at least have the one that you can holster / fix easily.
It's another boring (and questionable) Honda Civic in a world of boring (but tested) Honda Civics.
I speak as a dumbass who uses guns at work, so my perspective is a little skewed to that side.
Back at home in the safe I have numerous services pistols from Glock, S&W, Sig, Beretta, Colt, etc.
I've shot them all extensively and have come to the conclusion that they all do the same goddamn thing.
Glocks don't amaze me because they work so well, other guns amaze me because they don't.
