I couldn't help myself (with pics!).

OK, my new-to-me/used P11 arrived. It did have a fair amount of holster wear. The bluing on the slide was worn significantly in the high wear areas and even worn in lower wear areas. The bbl, though clean on the inside, had some minor staining/spotting on the outside. No pitting, but still looked ugly.

So, here are the "Before" pics.

Before: Slide wear

Before: Staining on bbl.

Can the P11 use S&W M5906 mags? Just wondering!

And now.. have you shot it? Let us know how it fairs.

IMS, yes. It was designed to use S&W 15 round mags, though they do protrude.

And now.. have you shot it? Let us know how it fairs.

Not since the mods. I did hand cycle it repeatedly through magazines (firing pin removed) with zero issues. I'll probably take it out shooting within a week or so.

Peace favor your sword,
