trigger pull is a beast, after a few rounds i found myself pulling the tip of my index finger back with my weak thumb... fairly accurate and over all sweet. 6rds of .45acp that fits in my pocket...

Nice. AMT make decnt weapons, and as back up pieces go that is a good one.

I've never found it to be much use, but it is a great little weapon.

its not made as a combat pistol really, its made to be tucked tight just in case. it really does that job well. like the p3at or LCP.

not a gun i would be taking to the range often or drawing if i have a choice of my XD. but for the times i dont really want to carry my XD i will carry this.

They are for sure, but it is very finicky about the rounds you can put through it. If I run a hollow point which is what is most commonly sold around here than it has feeding problems.

I'll have to pick them up and give them a shot, I use federal hollow points in my rifle when I am coon hunting but for some reason when I run them through the pistol stuff goes wrong.
