Hey folks,
I have had my P-07 for a little over a week now, and I have managed to make two trips to the range with it. I must say, I am in love with this pistol! If you want to read the report, go ahead, otherwise, the pictures are at the bottom .
Trigger
The double action is heavy, but I want it that way, since I am choosing to run it with the decocker instead of the safety. It is smooth, though, and I had no problem putting rounds on target. I shot one full mag in double action before I even tried using the single action.
The single action pull is absolutely amazing. It is so light that I had an accidental double tap the first time I used it. That only happened once, though, as I put a little more time and concentration into my trigger control after that.
Recoil
The recoil is almost pleasant. Of course, it is 9mm, so I wasn't expecting much, but it is definitely a soft shooter, and reacquiring the target was quick and easy.
Reliability
I went through 150 rounds on my first trip out with no malfunctions. I was using Perfecta 115 grain FMJ. Today's trip was 100 rounds of steel cased Tula 115 grain FMJ. There was one FTE during that trip, but I am fairly certain that was an ammo issue, as I had an FTE out of my PT111 G2 on the same trip out of the same box of ammo (Tula), and that gun has not had any other failures in the 800+ rounds I have run through it.
Ergonomics
I like the way it feels in my hand. It points naturally, and fills my hand nicely. I was surprised when I tried out the different backstraps. At home before going to the range, I liked the small best, which was surprising, as I have rather large hands (XL gloves are sometimes a bit snug), but when I got it to the range, I liked the way it shoots with the large installed. Either way, I was still able to be accurate; it just felt more secure in my hand when I fired it with the large.
Bonus
As I mentioned in another thread, it came with two +2 mag extensions in the case. I didn't notice them right away, as they were in the same little plastic bag as the backstraps, and I didn't mess with those until last night. They make the grip longer, of course, but not by much, and they actually make the grip just barely longer than the width of my hand, so I am a happy camper. Nothing I read in other reviews or in the description of the gun on Bud's website indicated that they would be included, but hey, I'm not gonna' look that horse in the mouth
.
OK, it's time for some pics
. Thank you for your patience.
First, here is a close up.
This is one of the targets I shot today. That is 50 rounds aimed at the "8" on the target.
Here it is in my hand. As I said, the +2 extension makes it a beautiful fit for my big hands.
