I owned one for a few months. It is an attractive piece... I experienced alot of feeding failures, but really, it was nothing a little tinkering wouldn't have fixed. I now own a Kimber Ultra Carry. Also experienced a few failures, but this time, I did the tinkering, and it works. I had bad luck with a couple Wilson magazines, but the Kimber nickel plated mag and a Colt mag with the metal follower work fine. What I did was: Polish breechface, ramp, and chamber. The Colt, I think runs $600, the Kimber was $700; used (as new) with night sights.
