I picked up a stainless steel version in .38 super for the dealer price of a glock and I can't be more pleased for the money. The fit was good, the accuarcy was great and the reliability was there so I plan on picking up the 9mm model when they become available again. The first batch or so may have been rough but mine is just as nice as the last Spartan I purchased. With the checkering, ambi's, a good trigger out the box and a good beavertail it's really hard to find more that needs to be done. Other opinions may vary of course, but I'm very happy.
