Its a good firearm for people that don't have huge hands. I put a hogue grip on mine because the factory grips aren't very comfortable at all. It is DAO and has no safety as i put in the details, but it has a drop block pin safety and a mag release safety. It is VERY reliable and i haven't had a single problem with it yet. Concealment is another story with this gun. It isn't the lightest thing i've handled and isn't the smallest. I am looking for a different firearm to carry for those reasons.
