If you're happy then it's a good trade. I like my fiveseven myself, but to each their own.

I do take exception to anyone dismissing it as a 20rd .22 mag. Even with the relatively bland factory loads you're getting rifle like performance from a handgun. With quality ammo like EA's stuff I sure as hell wouldn't feel underguned in any defensive encounter.
