Not a subcompact pistol guy. Generally...I like full size guns.
Summer carry....I go down a size and usually carry a G19. Decided to buy a new gun in that size category for the birthday, as it wasn't that much money. Was considering G48...glad I went with the Mossy instead. I did think it would be somewhat MEH, like the Ruger SR's and I'd go back to the G19 or switch to a G48....not the case.
I did not get the MOS model, I don't care about that stuff. I like night sights.
Pros of this gun......
Made in AMERICA, by a family owned company......not many of those left.
Really?.....300 dollars....with Trijicon Pro Night sights installed??? Really? Can buy 2 of these for one G48 w/NS, and I like it so much I did buy a spare for $288 on an even better sale from another vendor.
Super thin....thinner than G19 by a fair amount. 1/8 inch or so at least.
Mag catch steel, barely need to move my hand position to thumb it, drops free excellent.
Free state carry of 16+1 rounds, flat mag carry of 14+1
Trigger......Almost a carbon copy of Glock, but flat face and better reset and break. MCarbo makes a reduced spring, but I'm not going there...the trigger is about 5# and fine for carry.
Ran 500 rounds thru.....no issues yet. Soft shooting and controllable.
Breakdown....kinda weird, but easy...and striker comes out when cleaning which is pretty cool as you can swab the channel while your at it without any extra steps.
Seems the gun guys on youtube, nothing but good reviews......
After cleaning and carry for a month, there is minimal wear on the barrel or slide. Coating seems fantastic, even better than my G17 which shows much more wear.
Cons.
The name of the pistol is gay AF.
Not that popular, not many holsters, but found a clip on kydex from Aggressive Concealment for 30 bucks..... fairly easily.
Frame stippling could be better, its OK for me, but can see why some people might bitch.
Extractor is pinned in with roll pin......not that big a deal, but harder to pull and clean than a glock.
