$5,000? Going to be a race gun platform, I guess. Very few people are going to pay that kind of cash for a HD/SD gun.
I do like the extremely low bore axis though. I can imagine that's going to virtually eliminate muzzle flip. Not sure I like the three-piece slide. Just asking for possible issues down the road. Wonder if they're considering making one for the masses. Maybe around $600-$1,000 retail? |

So I watched a couple other videos on this gun and it seems clear that it's a competition gun, not a SD/HD/combat weapon. And even when Laugo Arms tries to go into mass production, it will still be a high-end piece.
However, I'm relatively certain that Ruger, or S&W, or Glock, or some other manufacturer will reverse-engineer enough of this concept to introduce a $800-$1,500 version in a few years. So all I have to do is figure out which two or three guns I won't need in four or five years, so I can sell them and buy the Alien clone in about 2027. |

Got me a new range toy a few weeks ago. Pictured with stock grip v magpul grip.
Loving this gun.. low recoil even though its straight blowback, dead on accurate once sighted in with the sig romeo 5. shot out the entire center of the target without a single flyer. really comfortable, really fun, like shooting it better than my AR. Even makes me want to see if i can get ahold of a Bren. |

As for the $5k price, my understanding is that price is only for the very first run of the pistol and it might have some custom badging, colors etc and only offered in Europe. |

You’re welcome for the crotch shot.
Picked up this Gen 2 PSA AKV 9MM from a coworker for $600. Been wanting one for a couple weeks. They sell for $700 before Oklahoma sales tax and shipping on their website, which is around $775 OTD. That’s without a red dot and only one mag. He put on a Vortex Crossfire ($140 on eBay), five extra mags at $20 each, and a Magpul sling. Hard to pass up that deal. PSA sells out of these within hours of listing them. |

SMITH & WESSON M&P SHIELD 9MM - $249
Anyone have any experience with this handgun? All the research I've done says nothing but good things. I'm thinking of picking one up. https://palmettostatearmory.com/smit...eldtm-9mm.html |
