I had them add me to their info list. Looks interesting, depending on the final overall size and weight. They told me target price is $849.

Like any new product, I would give it a year or so to get the bugs out.

I'd wait a year or two to let the flaws float to the top...

That could be awesome. An alternative to Kahr, Kel-tec, Rohrbaugh. Price point is unfortunate. Somehow we justify dropping that on 1911's, but it looks horrendous for anything else. For that kinda jack, it better be dead nuts reliable.

I hope they get ALL the bugs worked out before it goes into production. (How many sales do you supposed Kahr and Kel-Tec lose to abounding horror stories??? Even after you weed out the operator error, the barrel peening, parts breakage, and general finickiness scare a lot of people off).

I'd like to see that puppy chambered in 45acp, and sized like a 3" 1911.

It's been a long time coming, and I'm not holding my breath, but when/if it actually goes into production I'd like to fondle one. It has some real potential on paper.

Looks interesting...They've still gotta way to go, before production...

Last I had heard, they hoped to have the first one's out end of this year, early next. I think it's an interesting concept, but like most, I'd wait a year or so and see what bugs arise.

Too complicated for a slight increase in veolocity. It is about the same size as the KelTecs, but heavier than the PF-9 with the same magazine capacity, and about as heavy as a P-11 loaded with 11 rounds. If you don't feel safe with hot loads in 9mm, then why not go with a Kahr 40S&W or 45ACP and skip this Rube Goldberg pistol.

Maybe if it fires trounds or gyro-jet cartridges I'll give it a look.

When governments make laws, they must consider the unintended consequences.

It looks a little Bond, James Bondish.
