Feels really good in my hand.Love the sights.

Fieldstripping is a snap.Was hitting 2 inch groups at 20 yards without any problem.Is a little bit more kick than expected,but was manageable not as much as a xd I had both were 9mm.

I had an xd 9mm sold it because it did not have a safety on it,but the stoeger cougar has a decock on it that is awesome.The finish is really good also.I have had guns that would throw casings back at my face regularly ,but this gun kicks them out away from the gun everytime.
