The Bad: The parts are a tight fit. This is both good and bad. People have reported problems with light strikes and misfeeds. Springfield has stated that they did send them from the factory a little dry. They recommend lube and a break in period of about 200 rounds. Both 1G_DSM and I have experienced this.
However, both of us also have resolved the issue with a little lube and proper grip. On that note, it is a small gun. If you have a large hand, you may find it difficult to grip because your pinky hangs off the end. This is why I have the 7 round mag, it allows me to get my full hand on it. After lubing it properly I've put another 250 rounds through it, and didn't have any issues with it. I would have like it to have worked properly from the factory, but given it was a simple fix, I'm very satisfied with it.
