I've had my PT945 (non-ported) for over a year now. I reload and compete in IDPA and pin-shoots with it. I have been very pleased. It's accuracy has been extremely good. It shoots better than I do. I was pleased with the sub 4 inch groups I was getting at 15 yards off-hand firing as soon as I aligned the sights up (practice for both IDPA and pin-shooting). Then a friend of mine tried it and his first 5 shot group was under 2 inches. I then felt very confident about the pistol and my reloads.
I reload to shoot more and load to simulate factory loads. I have shot over 2500 rounds through it, mostly reloads. I don't have any problem with the recoil or recovery time. Once I learned to reload properly, I have not had any jams with it, and never with factory loads. It balances well, especially when fully loaded. I carry whenever possible and find the weight very acceptable. I like the options with the safety/decocker lever. I carry and compete with it DA with the safety on; however, while moving between targets during matches, I flip the safety on until the sights are on target, leaving it in SA. I have never had a problem flipping the safety off before pulling the trigger during matches. All in all I am very happy with it and would buy another one and/or recommend it to others.
