Hammer vs striker might make small difference but I would not think it would be enough to notice. Looks to be built on the.380 EZ platform with similar features. Barrel Internal Hammer fired Grip Safety Optional Thumb safety Easy Load 8 round magazines Now shooters with arthritis or limited hand strength have a 9mm option instead of just a.380. I was wondering what product would be released this week. SW had a 50 rebate on Shields, but only 9mm and.380s that expired on Sunday. They always blow out competing products with a rebate before releasing a new product. I assumed it would be a high capacity HellcatP365 competitor in 9mm and.380. It was also the highest rated pistol in the NRAs Ladies Pistol Project III. My wife didnt have issues with recoil with her G19, she just couldnt manipulate the slide. Same with my sons 90 lbs girlfriend, she shot my MP 9 compact fine, but struggled with the slide. Im going to bring it to the range this weekend and let him have at it. I suspect a frequent carry method for a (largish) carry firearm aimed at women, like this one is, might be concealment purse.
