Just looked at the specs. It's like half an inch longer and 0.17" narrower than my P30SK. And it holds two more rounds. Not bad. P30SK may become a truck gun or get sold.$650 sounds about right. I may trade my HK P30sk for this. I hardly carry it anymore and if this is only modestly bigger I’d rather have a 10mm on hand than a 9mm.
I chamfered the edges and removed extra flashing of the grip safety slot and the pinching was solved. Image is of work in-process.

Or longer Nice Sigs. There is this new Glock company that makes a 3.8". They get along well.Typically I agree which is why I own these.
A full 5” barrel is where the 10mm shines.
But sometimes I want something smaller and lighter....
Please give us your impression when you get to shoot it. I watched two videos yesterday indicating good shootability and decent velocity depending on ammo brand and weight. But then both reviewers spouted some common 10mm hyperbole and idiocy that just isn't true, and I lost faith in their comments. So I'd rather hear from someone I know actually shoots and is realistic.I just ordered it. As far as woods guns go, this is exactly what I've been waiting for. I've been hoping SA would release this since I bought the 4.5 inch version a while back.

High on the list for meHas its uses but concealed carry low on the list.
Probably in the 35 oz range, loaded.
You finally going to get on the 10mm train man? I know you like those 45s.Wow. This is just … a cool little package. This might make me bite the bullet and get a 10 for bumming around. Affordable and 11 plus one!? What’s not to love?

I don’t think you’re wrong. Ammo capacity is a small benefit. But really may not matter. To me I’m just a little more invested in 10mm with two pistols and a carbine. Only have two 45s left and I don’t see buying another.Will be interested in your report. Buddy of mine has a G29 and we are convinced it won’t shoot anything heavier than 180gr, which leaves boutique-loads off the table….his G29 can’t seem to stabilize heavier bullets which is probably where the 10mm starts to shine in effective energy and penetration.
As a result of the not-so-scientific-tests with his G29, I have stayed with the 45ACP, as I’ve found no compelling (yet) reason to make that switch.
I figure a 45ACP +P will do 90% of what a boutique 10mm will do in the field, therefore the difference is too close and not worth the upgrade to me and my way of thinking.
How’s that Meta Trigger? Regular XDm triggers aren’t anything special to me so I’m curiousI picked it up today and will probably need to wait until the weekend to shoot it. I don't know that I'll put a red dot sight on it, but it comes from the factory cut for it. I removed the magwell as the grip fits me better without it. While I waited a few minutes for the background check to go through, the LGS installed the night sights I bought at no charge, which was a nice surprise.

If it's better than my XDs I'm in LOL!It's pretty good. It's not as crisp as the triggers on my HK VP9SK or CZ P10. There's maybe 1/4 inch of take up during which you can feel the spring pushing slightly on the trigger followed by a fairly crisp break. I wouldn't describe the take up as a little spongy but can understand if somebody describes it that way. Like you said it's nothing special, but it is pretty good.
