I have the Stoeger version. I don't love it, but neither do I hate it (although it tries my patience at times). The safety/decocker is awkward and difficult to use. I've never been able to make a good shot in DA. I'm good in SA mode though. Well, except for all the jams, and boy does it like to jam up in all kinds of strange ways (average around once every couple of magazines worth). I assumed it was just me (this was my first pistol), but I don't have issues with any of my other ones. Stovepipes, double feed, triple feed, severe jams that tap, rack, bang doesn't help. It turns into drop mag, try and rack, poke objects in to pry out the big jammed up mess...
So far, different ammo and mags don't help. Dunno. Maybe time to start playing with different springs. Sigh. I really like how it shoots once I get the stupid safety off and am in SA mode. However, if I could get my hands on a good double stack 9mm 1911, I'd probably dump the Cougar.
