I wanna go fast
I can't speak to the newer polymer models with the rail, but the steel models are good solid little guns. I'd love to find a stainless 941.

In need of moderation
I LOVED my steel model Jericho, with two caveats:
1) Heavy for a wonder nine
2) Sights shot "pumpkin on a post" if I aimed at the post.
It is a lot like a CZ-75. Trigger is better, ergos are similar, and I preferred the Jericho in many ways... even with a slide mounted decocker. But in the end I fell in love with the balance of the CZ instead.
I have not tried the poly frame IMI, but would like to. IMO all the Israeli arms I have owned are well-engineered but over heavy.

You have that power too
Paging DC-W! lol
AwwwwwwwwwwWWWWWW yeahhhhh!
Literally my favorite gun
Mine is an original all-steel model direct from Israel, made in 1989. They're CZ75/Tanfoglio clones, but extremely well made for the price.
It's accurate and comfortable as all get-out. The trigger is smooth and light in SA too. Mags run around $35 or so a piece. The only bug on mine is a worn-out extractor, but I'd imagine you're not in the market for a 26 year old firearm. IWI's newer version of it has better sights and a frame-mounted safety instead of the old slide safety like mine.
The Israelis love the polymer models and they're used commonly by their law enforcement and military.
It won't make you quite as cool as Spike Spiegel (if you know who that is), but closer enough
If I could have just one firearm in my entire lifetime, this would be it.

I can't put my finger on why but...that is a good looking pistol. I sort of want one now.

If that polymer has 1913 rails on it then you can virtually mount any handgun light you like so long ad they're rail mounted.

What's going on with the "grit" between the slide and frame?
That's the lube I used to use. Slide Glide.
It's stringy and stays well, but I didn't like how much crap it collects, so now I use Mobil 1.
Steel with rail
I don't believe the roster differentiates between steel and polymer models, so you should be good. https://www.mdsp.org/Organization/S...e/HandgunRoster/HandgunModels.aspx?manu=18197
The old Jerichos were legal, and I was the guy who got the 941F on there last year. The new ones may need a new handgun roster submission if they changed the model names (which the press release implies they did, unfortunately).
I own an IMI Jericho 941F (frame safety), which I reviewed on my blog:
http://hebrewhammerblog.com/2014/12/07/the-jericho-941f/
Overall, it's a good gun, but heavy. Not a big fan of the safety, but I may be in the minority on that one. The Barak is a much better gun overall, and I wish IWI would have revived that instead.
ETA: note that IWI-US is providing adjustable sights; my model had much more crude sights, albeit I think they're better on a combat pistol.

My ocd zoomed right to it
My OCD demands I re-take those photos, lol.
