Can't remember where i read it, but i was looking for ammo reviews of the Fiocchi, and came on a forumthread where everybody seems in agreement that it's pretty good stuff,
though just a tad hotter than other normal velocity.
I don't think it was meant to say it's P+ or anything like that.

But the front sight, might not be a bad idea.
I'll keep it as is for a while first, make sure that all else works fine before i tinker with it.

The recoil, like you said, it's not uncomfortable at all, once i got past the initial experience upgrade .22 > .45 , it's been getting more fun with each magazine.

And no Jams ,
to me that's a big change because the .22 club ammo, in the .22 club beater pistols jammed all the time.
1 in 10 was a non firing shot.. then re-cock, retry, rotate the bullet a bit so it strikes a different side of the rim
1 in 15 was a stove pipe

At some point it got so bad, that i was loading the pistol by hand, 1 bullet at a time,
because that meant less jams, and more importantly , if it jammed it didn't bugger up the next round as it tried to feed.

Now, it goes bang every time.
It also means my sessions are over a lot faster or i use up way more way expensive ammo
I'm saving the brass, guess that 1000 rnd box won't last long and i'll be looking into reloading real soon
