I fired two different models last summer at Ashman's shooters jamboree, a standard model and a compensated version. I liked that they had less recoil with full power 158 grain bullets and was more comfortable to shoot than 357 revolvers. In January we were in a gun shop and they had a standard one for sale, brand new. My wife let me get it for my birthday. I only have about 115 rounds through it so far, because of our harsh winter this year. At 25 yards it puts all shots within a four inch circle. Has a great trigger, under 3 pounds. It sometimes fails to feed the first round when you hand cycle the slide, but always works when actually firing, and always chambered the first round with aluminum case Blazer rounds. Other owners assure me it just needs break in. It prints about 6 - 8 inches low, which is fine, because I can file the front sight to dial it in, once I decide what load and bullet weight I want to use most often. I replaced the grips with blue/ black laminate G10, which are CNC machined and checkered, also thinner. From Stoner CNC. They look great. Can't post pics because I'm not tech literate and don't want to mess around joining a hosting site, uploading, etc. Love my Coonan though, and the snow is melting, should be able to access my outdoor range in a couple weeks.
