Very impressed with this hand cannon. Holds a fairly tight pattern of pellet placement at 15 yrds, and pretty accurate with the .45 loads as well. This is currently my “carry”, as I like the idea of having 5 pellets of 00 buck shot (X2) going “downrange” at 1150fps (Muzzle Vel. w/ 3″ shells). I think this makes a great self-defense pistol.
