I saw one of those at the range today. I chose the Glock 23 instead. I probably would have done better with the Springfield. I wasn't terribly accurate with the Glock. It was just a bit small for my hands. I'm mulling over which model I should get. Guess I should broaden my horizons to include the Springfield, too.

By the way, the range ammo only rule stinks. I rented an MP-5/40. The flat-nosed crap they foisted off on me wouldn't feed worth a damn and the HK was filthy as all get out. After five or six single shots followed by a jamb, I took the MP5 out and had them clean it a bit. After that I was able to fire three or four bursts before it jammed again. I must say that, for all the issues, it was beautifully accurate. Head shots at 25m were a piece of cake. Even on full auto, recoil was very manageable, and I got some pretty good groups. Not bad for a rookie, I say.
