Early in my LEO years, my department hosted a 'combat shoot'. I was in charge of the SG course. It consisted of (3) 'pepper poppers', set at the 10 o'clock, 12 o'clock and 2 o'clock positions. Ranges varied fron 7yds to 15 yds. Sequence of fire was 10 o'clock, 2 o'clock and 12 o'clock...

My cases of #6 are strictly for hunting small game.

But it WOULD be more comfortable to carry and it WOULD be easier to find holsters for.

Will SA install Emissary sights on my Ronin Operator?

Make it with an aluminum frame, TRADITIONAL trigger guard, and stainless slide and I'll buy one.

My stainless Kimber ProCarry 9mm has run flawlessly since 'Day 1' with a variety of mags, bullet weights, and configurations.

When I taught GED classes in correctional facilities I always made sure I had a sharp pencil or two handy.
