Smooth, excellent weapon. My girlfriend liked it better than a 9mm Sig less kickback. I would highly recommend, you get what you pay for. Buds had it delivered to the FFL very quickly , Thanks bud looking for more to purchase

This is a handy little gun - much more powerful than it looks. Very concealable. Very accurate - I can get a 1" spread at 50ft. As with most .40's it's a little snappy in the recoil, but it is manageable. You'll want to get a Drive Pin Punch, 5/32 Punch if you don't have one, to change the grip and other things on the gun. If you have smaller hands, you'll most likely like the rounded grip that comes standard on the weapon, I on the other...uh.. hand - prefer the flatter grip. Pretty easy to clean, but with the black metal, be sure you aren't missing the grooves in the slide. I threw a Viridian c5 laser on the rails, but now I need a holster that accommodates the laser/gun combo - any suggestions would be appreciated. If you like the .40sw platform and you want a concealable, accurate powerful weapon, you'll like this gun. Walther (the actual ones made in Germany) are high quality. Extra mags are 'spensive though!!!
