Yes the closer the better, but it can go up to 7 yards. Its designed for close up shooting indeed. But the fact it fits like a phone makes it a good concealed piece. For more distance and power my Beretta PX4 Storm. Can still conceal it, but its bulkier. But my ATFs are my shotguns and ARs

Yep, just talk to any good gun smith about working on the S&W autos.  
Revolvers are good, autos are not so much and that is why they are cheap.
