I'm 3000 rounds in on a 5000-round endurance run with a full-sized 9mm American.
Just as a late FYI in this thread:
Decently accurate, not exceptional. Did slightly outshoot a new M&P 2.0 at 25 yards.
Wide frame. Some report bruising & blood draws from the upper rear corner hitting the base of the thumb "knuckle" under recoil.
I have not drawn blood there & there's no skin abrasion, but that area IS sore, especially after 1500 rounds fired yesterday.
Wide slide. I'd ordered a set of FOs from Hi-Vis, the slide's too wide for my gunsmith's "universal" sight pusher to fit & install the sights.
I'm not going to risk damage by whacking the factory sights myself.
The pistol was Breakfree'd once before the initial firing, has been running without a hitch (other than me shortstroking the trigger reset three times when I was going for speed) ever since.
Bone dry for at least a couple thousand rounds after the Breakfree burned off.
