The springs are so stiff, it is unusable for the first (attempted) 500 shots. Failure to fire 50% of attempts, the firing pin doesn’t even dimple the primer.

This pistol is an ideal conceal/carry gun. I was interested in something that had some weight to it to handle recoil and yet was light enough to tote around in an IWB holster all day. This definitely checked the boxes, plus it hit the “home run” for me because it’s like a miniature government 45 in 9mm. The Micro 9 is accurate and very concealable, I’m very happy with my purchase! MidwayUSA was very helpful and very quick in delivery to the designated FFL and has my respect in purchases of firearms in the future from them. I have to admit I was skeptical on this first purchase, but never again!! MidwayUSA made this purchase a breeze and their service is second to none!! Thanks MidwayUSA!!!

I’m so glad I bought the 1911 Custom II. It is well made. Right off the bat the balance of holding this handgun is perfect. Not too forward-heavy, just right. The wooden grip is a perfect fit with great detail. Surprisingly the mag Adrien exit is very smooth. I thought it would take a bit of breaking in but perfect right off the bat. I also added the 20-round mag but have not used it yet. I don’t know it’s a sensitive trigger like other reviews. I think it’s just right. Only one session in the range but many more to come. Overall very pleased.

I had the opportunity to buy an NRA FDE edition P365 back in late 2019, but passed it over for a Glock 42 for some reason. I spent the next year kicking myself over that one because I couldn’t find the FDE P365 anymore, and P365s sold out within minutes of arriving at Local Stores. I told myself I would buy a P365 the next time I saw one on the shelf, so that happened to be an SAS. I had read about how several known firearms reviewers didn’t like the sights, so I was a bit hesitant about that. After putting several hundred rounds through it, and letting other shooters shoot it, the sights are actually quite intuitive and of course, totally snag-free. It’s very easy to shoot steel plates, even small plate rack plates doing speed shooting. My wife immediately was center-punching steel silhouettes in the cowboy town shooting gallery like a pro, and she had never shot it before, hasn’t shot a pistol in years. I would like it to have the takedown lever like a normal P365, but this is really a minor complaint. I also purchased a new P365XL NRA FDE Special Edition as soon as I saw one, with the 15rd mags, which is just a great pistol. In a recent pistol course I was teaching, my buddy and I compared both of our SAS’s, because his has the compensated barrel/slide with the ports. It was immediately noticeable to me how concussive that model is, versus the normal muzzle blast from the SAS I have, like the one you see above from Midway. To-date, I have run my carry hollow point load, Winchester Silver Tips, as well as various FMJ ammo without a single malfunction. My buddy hasn’t experienced any malfunctions with his either. I also haven’t experienced any malfs with the P365XL. The only complaint you will have out of the gate with the P365 magazines is trying to load them. Do yourself a favor and get the Maglula UpLULA available here at Midway: https://www.midwayusa.com/product/2136952670/ I also highly recommend the SIG P365 Air Pistol for training.
