First thing: that grip may suit Mr. Miculek, but it did not work well with my hand. Happily, the owner had the set of Pachmayr grips he uses and we changed to them; BIG difference for me.
Accuracy and handling? Very nice; the front sight has a brass bead implanted, and it works very well for the purpose of putting shots where you want them. The trigger, as mentioned, was quite nice. Reminded me of why I like revolvers.* Reloading with clips is fast: open the cylinder, eject the empty, drop in a full one, close.
So: it's a big, serious pistol firing a serious cartridge, with beautiful fit and finish and a smooth, fast action.
Downsides? It's big, for concealed carry too much so for some.
Moon clips can be a pain to unload/reload; if you don't have a tool for it(there are several), much more so.
Good side of moon clips: see 'fast' above.
It's a good one. And it's Earl Harbinger approved.
*I was an adult before I fired any semi-auto handguns. Not because of dislike, because of opportunity. I still point-shoot better with a revolver than a semi.
