We’ve got an S&W 99. I think that they’re pretty much identical. We’ve only run 4 or 5 hundred rounds thru it, but so far, it’s performed very well! memtb

They're very solid pistols, feel great in the hand.

Thanks GG, I found a video that fairly well explains the firing mechanism, which I rather like.

Yeah it's a slick twist on the traditional DA auto. I have always liked them, find them a joy to shoot. I've also found it to be one of the most pleasant .40's to shoot. I think you'll like it.

I have a PPS M1 & Q5 that's a PPQ platform,,,both great guns. The P99 is a good gun for carry with the heavy trigger, and paddle mag release(if you like that)...I'm a fan of the paddle because of being Lefty.
