I had one when they were relatively new to the market. I liked the amount of firepower in the size of the package. Mine had ignition issues with my handloads but factory fodder was 100%. I assumed it was my reloads causing the issue. I've since started using a Lee FCD and had much better luck. Mine went bye bye a few years back.
My brother just picke up a new 9mm version of the same pistol. He brought it over last weekend so I could make a kydex holster for him. I was impressed with it. It had nice texturing to the grips and had some machine work don't to the slide that looked very well done. Not sure if he's had a have to shoot it yet. He don't have any 9mm ammo before he bought it an its pretty scarce around these parts... I loaned him a hundred rounds until things calm down some.
Glad to hear yours is doing well.
