Love Drift is cool. Because of your satisfaction and posted experiences with the PPS I have considered it in the past. Input is always good. I've heard the Glock rumor. If they keep the current trigger it won't compare with the 320 or the VP9 trigger but it will gain instant wide spread acceptance.
True, primarily because of two factors:
1. The Shield's external safety comes in handy when shoving the gun down the front of my pants (I might be paranoid on this point)
2. My big meaty paws interfere with the magazine release on the PPS
Craig's gun shot very well and it's a solid contender in the single stack game.

For a CCW pistol I've really come to appreciate the security of the paddle magazine releases.
PPS for me.

Triggers are subjective, but I can say that my first time with a PPS, using the medium sized 7-round magazine and the large 8-round magazine, I shot 100 rounds as accurately or more accurately than 100 rounds through my Beretta PX4 full-size that I've been shooting for 5 years. I credit what was, to me, a remarkably predictable trigger. I was making a pretty decent spinner-show of a shooting tree at 25 yards (not an estimate, marked police range). I'm very happy I have finally purchased one. In some ways it's the antithesis of my LCP. The LCP is incredibly concealable and reliable, but, for me any way, nearly unshootable. Outside of 3-5 yards I'd be better off with a baseball bat. The PPS is a bit chunkier than some of the other single-stack nine contemporaries, but is amazingly shootable. I know the Shield is the current pistol de rigueur, and it's a nice gun, but in my time with both the PPS was the one that stole my affections.

Tim that might even be different now that I have the larger backstrap on it plus the wraparound rubber grip shit. I'll have it at the Tac Conference if you want to finger bang it or shoot it.
May have to do that. Might have to bring my new single-stack 9, too...although it's a bit heavier than the PPS.

That's a really good point and I agree with that assertion completely.
More deadlifting!

On the 99 Drill, I shot a 92/99, which is a PR on that drill for me. The VP9 turned in excellent groups with all types of ammo used. "

My small handed shooters manage the med grip easier than a Glock and reach the controls easier. I've been surprised at the ease of shooting it fast and have found overall faster Bill Drills capable than with my Glocks. I am not sure why.
So far on a few other drills and plate racks, pretty even vs a G17. Trigger feels lighter but scales a pound heavier than my minus connector Glocks to my surprise. We think recoil feels lighter vs G17.
I'm pretty impressed so far."
