How is the grip on the HC compared to single stack?
For the price, I am totally impressed with mine, an all around great weapon

A bit thicker /wider...as you might imagine,
but not bad.
I have large hands...so I have no problem.
YMMV...

For all the bells and whistles you get...and a Series 70 trigger !?
Very Impressed Indeed..
I have a MS model (4.25") that I'm fairly happy with. I still have occasional ftf/fte that I can't figure out. Using Tripp mags,flat bottom fps and all stock springs. Love shooting it though!
It's a bit more challenging for carry. In most cases I dress around what I'm carrying if needed, but this thing is a beast, and works best in the winter for me
Thanks
Ken
Looking forward a long term (500 rnd+) report.
Also curious to see if you develop a limp while carrying :P :D
Absolutely will 😀
