[QUOTE="Jujen Kai, post: 1066962, member: 4431"] I carry mine everywhere I CAN carry. It's small, light, and fits anywhere. I took some "ToolMagic" (designed for coating the handles of pliers, etc.) and used a small paintbrush to dope it on. After three coats, the grip had improved incredibly and felt recoil is down by about 10% or so. From a shooting standpoint, the trigger pull is lengthy and heavy, as it is your only form of mechanical safety on the weapon. The P3AT also has no slide stop, and will not hold open after your last shot. It has a hard recoil due to the light weight of the pistol. In a life-or-death situation, I figure that's not a big deal, but in training it can be an issue. As has been stated the sights are nothing to brag about. I painted mine in contrasting shades of neon green (rear) and neon orange (front). They help a little bit. Hope that helps you! [/QUOTE]
