Dull Day At The Range

This is my first P3AT, 2nd Generation, black/black, purchased
at a gun show in Mesa, Arizona a few weeks ago for $242.  
Serial # is J6xxx.  This is to be a BUG to complement my
primary CCW, which is a Kahr PM9.

Like some other hardheads, I didn't field strip it and clean, oil or
F&B prior to firing it.  I just ran a little Breakfree on the slide
rails while the slide was back and went off to the range.  I did
look around inside a bit but found no extraneous crud at all.

The ammo was WWB 95 grain FJM.  The target was a TQ-15
silhouette at 7 yards.  Total amount of rounds fired was 50.

In the interest of breaking it in and seeing just what to expect
with fairly rapid fire, I fired 5 shot groups with all 5 shots being
fired within approximately 3-4 seconds.

All hit well within the inside of the primary scoring ring.

Observations:

This little sucker kicks a bit but muzzle rise isn't all that much
and from my perspective, it seems to come back more than rise
up at the muzzle.

The web of my hand between the thumb and 1st finger was a
little sore at the end of the session.

The first joint of my trigger finger was also a little sore from the
trigger guard impacting it periodically, and I've got very small
hands, so this might be a problem for someone with large hands
or fingers.

I tried limpwristing it a bit trying to cause a feeding or ejection
problem, but it didn't seem to care...on the other hand I've been
shooting for a long time and perhaps I don't know how to
properly limpwrist.

In field stripping it after I got home, I found I had to use a small
pocket knife blade to get the assembly pin to start out and then
used the rim of a cartridge to remove it fully as the head of the
pin is essentially flush with the slide.

Lastly, the thickness of the slide in the area of the recoil spring
guide apprears to be a little less than 3/16", but I eyeballed it
and didn't measure.

No problems and I'll post again when I run another 50 rounds
through it.
