Got a chance to hold one today. I kinda liked it, albeit with the extended mag. But it felt like it had a mile long trigger pull. I don't get the chance to pull the trigger on many, so is my observation correct? I regularly shoot an LCR and an SP101 (because I own 'em), so I was kinda surprised at my thought.
Secondly, how is the (wildly subjective) recoil? I shoot my 357LCR, and it's got more recoil than I'd care for, even with wadcutters. I can do a few cylinders of 158grn +P's, and that's about enough. My 3" SP101, that's fine to shoot with those loads (but I don't like Magnums in it).
I'd like another pocket pistol, but with a couple more rounds, and easier to shoot (lighter trigger, less felt recoil than the LCR), but with a similar-ish trigger, as I don't plan to give up my revolvers. At the same shop I held a Taurus 709 (nice grip, lousy trigger) and the LC380 (same as LC9 I know) (grip not as nice but better trigger). The Sig was wildly expensive, but came with night sights and two mags (short and extended). I've held a Keltec P32, but it felt tiny; and I don't think I'd care for the P3AT nor LCP on the basis of what I've read about recoil.
