Great writeup of a great gun. It's been my choice since 2011.
While I recognize the comment about racking the slide, I don't fully buy into the argument. Yes, it's different from how you'd rack a 2011 slide, but once you figure it out it's fairly quick. When I started with the TS I used the stock rear sight as my "racker", which took it's toll on the support hand index finger. What I do now is to draw the gun and slap on the web between my support hand index finger and thumb on the slide, press down and rack the slide. I don't even try to pinch the slide. This works fine for me, without grip tape and with stock springs...
