Well, in 9mm I'd just about expect that.

Question is also, is it more accurate?

I never cared for pistol cartridges in a rifle anyway. If I am going to pack the extra weight of a long arm I want the punch and accuracy of a real rifle cartridge to go with it. A few hundred feet per second or less between the rifle and pistol isn't much to justify the rifle unless there is a substantial improvement in accuracy. Most improvements in accuracy between rifle and handgun tend to be based on the shooters increased skill level with the rifle over the handgun. I know I shoot better with my rifle than I ever did with a handgun.

It's the increased sight plain you have, longer barrel pistols are more accurate than snubs. I'm having trouble at 65 seeing pistol sights and the target at the same time clearly. I can still bust eggs with my M1A though.
