    Nice work.
    Attitude: it takes 43 muscles to frown, 17 to smile...and 3 for proper trigger squeeze.

    The olive branch is considered a symbol of peace, and good will. Last time I checked, it's still a switch.

    Would you attribute the better control to the slightly thicker grip or the texture of the checkering. Just curious for future generations. Many think that the checkering makes it harder on the hand much like the texture of the PM's but I've not found it a bad thing to myself. Long as they work that's what wer'e all about.

    Both...I think. I didn't find the checkering hard on my hand and it did help the grip after many rounds and when my hand would perspire.

    The MK is definitely NOT comfortable for long range sessions but I attributed that to the heavy slide spring and the sharp slide release (I am gonna fix that one soon!).

    I shoot the XD9sc better. I attribute that to the longer grip to trigger length and to the fact that it "feels" like a natural extension of my hand whereas the MK feels like a very cool, neato, diminutive 9mm. It was bought primarily as a BUG and for alternate carry (when the little XD feels "too big". Perhaps a K9 is in my future and I would also entertain thoughts of an EMP or CZ-Rami (non-poly) in the future.

    The XD is a much larger more comfortable gun and really can't be compared fairly with the MK. That MK is a dandy little bug though. My K40 is a little more hand filling but I still wouldn't compare it to the XD.
    Glad your happy with them handles, if your ever not, you know who to get hold of. What was Jocko's number again, I gotta look it up.
