I really enjoy this little gun. I love the fact that it comes in a 3 and 5". Makes shooting with my kids fun for them and safe.

Great gun for the price! I would have been OK with it for double the price.
Now, I'm not a competitive shooter and don't own any $1,000+ handguns, but I have shot quite a bit and own several in the $400-$800 range.
My copy of this gun has good fit and finish, and I like the way it fits my hand and points.
But the key questions (like for any gun): is it reliable and can you hit with it? I've put a couple of boxes of ammo through it and had zero failure-to-feeds / failure-to-fire, so yes, seems to work fine. Trigger is a tad longer and rougher than my best guns, but there's a predictable stop after the creep and a crisp, fairly light let-off after that, so it's very usable. The longer sight radius of the Rangemaster version is super helpful for target work. I can hit the point of aim better with this gun than with most of my others.
The overall size, which makes it much easier to be accurate, makes it a bit harder to conceal but it's not bad. However, unless you plan to practice enough to become an expert shot (and maybe even then), for defensive use you probably want a bigger caliber.
The multiple safety setup takes some learning to get used to. But hey, if somebody gets your gun away from you they'll probably never figure out how to shoot you with it ;)
Overall, I really like this gun and I'm impressed with the value for the money.

A total delight is to shoot this gun...I am impressed by the accuracy out of the box, at 25 yards and with no need of sight adjustment, I was hitting a 4inch bull eye target by more than 40 times or so and thruthfully I am not an avid shooter with pistols...I am impressed that it has a very well made construction and grip moreover the finish quality is very impressive for this little gun...I just give it a quick lube to all the moving parts including the mag...150 rounds and no issues with it, no jamming or misfire...after my wife(owner) shoot with it she is in love with it...I will buy one for myself too

Excellent gun!! I bought this for my wife to take the CWP class, but I think after she completes the class I'll keep this in my truck for a varmint shooter!! This gun was dead on the money right out of the box, pumped about 200 rnds the first day and only one FTF! The second round through it didn't feed and I thought, oh here we go, but the next 198 were flawless and if they didn't hit dead center target they were within an inch or two.. ranges from 10' to 50'! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!

Nice shooting pistol and very accurate. Only reason for the four star rating was because it has too many safeties. Transaction through Buds was flawless.

I got this pistol in the other day and I Love It! I got it home and cleaned it, proceeded to take it the range 500 rds later not a single FTF, FTE ect. The safeties are a little excessive IMO but that can be easily fixed by even the most novice of "gunsmiths". With that I being said I would deff. Recommend this to a friend! I might even get another one in black to keep in my purse :)

The complicated and time consuming California- required magazine safety is ridiculously difficult. When I got the gun from Bud's (quickly) the trigger safety would not engage. I sent the pistol back to the factory for repair and waited... and waited. There is no way to call or email Phoenix arms (voice and mail boxes eternally full). So, long story short, over 4 months later, and after sending them a copy of my drivers license 3 times, I finally got the crappy pistol back. Big whoop.

This is the 2nd gun I've ordered from Buds and it arrived with the usual speed that you expect from Bud's. I like the gun and was pleasantly surprised with the box that it came in. It contained all of the cleaning equipment needed plus a lock for the weapon itself. Fired 100 rounds through it at the range with no problems. Good luck when you try to clean it. I have never had a weapon that was so hard to break down and reassemble. Spent a lot of time looking for the recoil spring. Over all it's a good gun and I give it a 4.
