Date Added: Tuesday 24 December, 2013
On paper it seems like a great pistol. Light, compact, reliable, D/A only with re-strike, interchangeable grip panels, etc. But on the range it is pretty hard to shoot. The trigger is awful - heavy, long, and inconsistent reset. It's not a gun that you wanna shoot constantly at the range but with the way it shoots, you need to spend a lot of time with it on the range. Especially if it is going to be your EDC. It's not like you get good with your Glock 19 or your duty P229 and transition to the P290 with only a familiarization shoot. This gun takes a lot of practice. Second, is the ergonomics and the rough textured grips. It is very aggressive and sandpaper-like. It will rub and fray your over garment, especially any light nylon, silk, rayon type summer shirt. Which is a huge disappointment considering I bought it specifically for summer carry and it almost ruined my nice lightweight Columbia PFG and Under Armour fishing shirts.
