I've looked them over at my LGS and great fit, smooth with a good trigger. The finish is obviously where they cut corners but it is not bad for a basic parkerizing. I don't think a better gun can be had in it's price range and they are better than they SHOULD be for the price!
For the price they are hard to beat.

That might happen, but I expect to have it well broken in by then. Anyway, got notice it's ready for pickup. Doing that tomorrow.

Picked it up today. Too busy right now to do anything with it other than lock it up in the safe. Also bought a bunch of ammo for all my guns for my own Christmas stocking.
