I'm behind on BBS'ing, so this might be beat to death - LOL - BUT...

I got excited about it when it was announced, but would really like to
SHOOT one to get the real feel... My carry is a .40 Shield and I was already
looking at upgrading to a Shield Plus for the increased capacity, but 
I really like the .40 (just personal). The .30 SC seems to scratch that 
same itch! If 10 rounds of 9 are good, then 15 round of .30 should
be better? :-)

Plus I've been 'intrigued,' I guess you'd say, but a .327 revolver. My
understanding is the .30 SC is the 'ACP' version of that round...
