    Do you mean this one?

    The one thing I hear is the trigger is absolutely terrible. Like 16-18 lbs terrible.

    I found both triggers to be terrible to me so the triggers are on a scale to me.. The Glock was a crisper suck and the XD was a more mushy suck. They are in the same family, SR9 (heavy suck), Glock (crisp heavy suck), XD( lighter mushy suck), M&P(heavy mushy suck).

    Appreciate the informative info,Lookin for something better than a heavy hi-point the cobra looks good but the trigger is crazy ,wonder if a smith could lighten it up,gun is for informal shooting not daily carry just another caliber to play with.

    well, check out bersas 45acp.

    Yep, Bersas are some seriously underrated pistols. I had the .380 for several years and was pretty happy with it. Mags are a little pricey, though.

    Older Bersa 45s (if you want to go used) are the Ultra Compact, and the newer ones say "UC Pro" on them. Check out here for the differences:

    Bersatalk has more info on it than you could possibly care to know . . .

    Here's a review that was done by a couple of Gun Bloggers that got some hands on at the NRA convention. (Complete with bruised trigger finger pic.)
