I've got the next size up-V10 Ultra Compact. It's been 100% through about 150 rounds- 185gr to 230gr.

Just finished fitting a Wilson Thumb Safety (right hand ... I won't carry an ambi) and a matching Wilson BP Slide Stop. Now she is set up just right. Will put another couple of hundred rounds through her on Thursday and see how it goes. So far ... I like!

Good deal Mike, glad she has worked out for you. Keep us informed as you break her in.

I enjoyed the Micro that had back in 09. I ran about a thousand rounds through it. It shot very well and only balked on feeding Speer Gold Dots. The Kimber Ultra's I had at the time wouldn't feed them either.. I had a brass takedown fitting made to that sure speed things up.. I have the dimensions if you want them.. Actually, I believe I still have the part.. Ron

Quite honestly ... I haven't taken it down that far just yet. I will let you know if I run into issues when I do.

THANKS!!!

Here's my carry 3" microcompact. It has been flawless. I've never had a ftf or fte. Probably have 750-800 rounds through it. So comfortable to carry, especially in a Crossbreed supertuck holster. (not pictured of course). I carry commercial JHP rounds, but reload and shoot Montana Gold JHP's. It feeds all hollowpoints like butter n' silk. Enjoy your new micro!!!

I have carried the Micro a bunch since break in and it carries like a dream. She is a keeper! Glad to hear your Micro has run well too, ! Sounds like a CT thing!
