I honestly think this is one of the best CCW pistols you can purchase; it's insane on how accurate they are. Very good choice on buying two! If you want some good sites to visit that specialize in this pistol regarding info, PM me.

If you can find some old Uzi blue-tip (158 grain) 9mm ammo, try some out. They are subsonic rounds designed for suppressed submachine guns, but they are VERY interesting coming out of a P7. Try them without ear protection and you'll see what I mean...

Very cool, you are on most of the big ones; there are a few smaller ones that are of interest once in a while. If you can swing it, get a Milt or Alessi holster for this one; I believe this gun firmly deserves a nice handmade leather holster.

Chris, will the Uzi ammo cycle in the P7? I've heard some folks having problems with heavier grained rounds cycling the slide, and if I recall correctly, isn't the Uzi a +p+ round with a very HARD primer? Do I dare ask how you managed to stumble upon this combo?

The Uzi black tip is a +P+ round. The blue tip is a gentle giant... We had some a while back, and this dude and I both owned P7s (he had an M8 and I had an O.G. PSP version). So we gave it a shot (literally). When it made a weird noise with our ear pro on, we checked to make sure it wasn't a dud round (i.e. bullet stuck in barrel). Nope - nothing... So then we took off the ear pro (indoor range) and blasted dozens of them. Amazing stuff... I'd say the ammo alone is good for a -30dB drop. I'm guessing the gas port in the P7 plays a BIG part, too.
