I'm more about the gun than capacity.
I'll take an extra mag - comes to that.
That said and acknowledging the weight, I gotta go Sig 232 stainless.
Very smooth and snag-free.
Stainless so I don't worry about it.
Extremely natural point in my hand.
Very accurate.
Very reliable.
Not picky about ammo.
Extremely safe with minimal controls.
Semi-shrouded hammer is well covered to limit snagging yet fully operational should one wish to initiate fire in DA.
Very quick field strip.
Nice selection of aftermarket grips.
Good sights and upgradeable.
Excellent holster options - a must!
Because I am extremely happy with the pistol and in fact am always on the hunt for 2 more at "a price", these are the things I've learned to live with:
Old world "European style" grip heel mag catch.
Heavy as a concession to the age of the design and my desire to carry stainless.
I don't consider capacity a detractor as it goes hand in hand with any given daily decision to utilize this as a carry gun rather than something of a greater caliber/capacity. 'Sides - I'm one of those guys - perhaps whistling past the grave yard - who does not foresee running gun battles with cartel operatives in my future.
I make a point of shooting this as I find it from my wife's purse. Never misses a beat regardless of the degree of purse detritus/rubble it may have picked up.
