That grip looks like *******, i want a rubber sleeve grip, if i even get one. All i really want is the 13rd mags for it and lots of ammo!

So glad to hear that you didn't go with a hi-point!
My buddy talked me into the 4" barrel full size. I almost bought the compact but he says it sucks for longer range.

The compact would be fine with the extended mag. They make a sleeve that goes over the 13 rd mag that extends the grip to fullsize.

I don't think you'll need to shoot a handgun farther than 25 yards {most gun fights are less than 7 yards}

My buddy is ex marine that saw 2 deployments. Im sure there is more of a reason that i got the fullsize and not the compact. Im happy! Sold the traction bars off my truck for $200 so that will be going to the gun soon.
