Hi all. I' haven't been here for awhile; been occupied in my home state forum (OKShooters.com) but in my opinion, he PPS M2 is the best SS 9mmm pistol out there. I've owned the Shields, Kahrs, XDs, various Glock 26/43...you name it, but the PPS M2 trumps them all. it really does shoot like a bigger gun, is very ergonomic, and built very well. $300? Oh yeah; all day every day! My G43 now sits in a drawer for the most part.
