Some were evil enough to say that the most damage you can do with this pistol is if you will throw it against your enemies head! We really didn´t liked it much.
I heard it was often called the "lightening pistol" since you could never hit the same spot twice with it.

I found my pistol to be reasonably accurate at combat distances (7-15 yards). It doesn't group like my Glock or M9, but it seemed to get them into the kill zone with little effort. I agree, the double action is heavy and difficult to master. I've never been a fan of double action autos, I much prefer striker fired guns.
