Gentlemen,
Cant tell you how much i needed to hear this review. I have been wanting a semi auto "trail" worthy gun for a while. Thought about 357sig, 10mm, and .460 rowlands. Here is the thing. I cannot say enough how LOUSY i am with heavier recoiled guns. The last time i short a large valiber revolver, i literally put all of the rounds 30 - 50 yards or more up the hill. The breeze from the bullets didnt even hit the target. An animal could have been safely grazing indefintiely where the target was. I have never had someone laugh at me while shootinga firearm as much as that day. It was pretty funny. So, the Rowland was out for me. I am very good with a .357 magnum... so figured a 10mm or 357sig should work, though still concerned about both. hearing your report today gives me a lot of hope. I have been very vocal about my thoughts with Ruger, good and bad. But one thing that i have maintained is that they have always been some of the softest shooting guns i have ever shot (though credit to Bersa as well for their rotating recoil system). I was not looking to get into the 1911 market, but a super soft shooting bull barrel 10mm 1911 is really changing my mind. I dont like the "small" round count magazines, and would love to see ome extended, higher capacity magazines for open carry in the woods. In any case, i think that this is my next firearm!!
