I had a P-95 for a long time. Summary? It was a lot like a hammer. It hit things hard, never broke, didn't cost much, and was really ugly. I never had a single jam or malfunction of any kind in the 3000 or more rounds I put through it. My "high dollar" pistol, a Kimber custom combat .45, jammed constantly until the break-in period was over. My Ruger had no break in period and cost $295. The Kimber? $700.

Good, blocky, and ugly. It was my favorite pistol.
