    Looks like a damn good shooter with some good options for the person that wants a safety.

    Thanks for sharing Zach.

    I like the idea of a manual safety but something about the location/size of it just doesn't look right.

    Also it looks like they are only offering them in compact and duty models rather than subcompact.

    Can't decide if I like the design or not. All the warnings on it are a bit much. Still, looks like a good carry pistol and at that price range I'm sure they will sell many of them.

    Good price. I've been thinking about trying the full size American but it would have to be pretty good for me to want to put my Sig away. Have you shot the American yet?

    Why does Ruger have to make such ugly guns. I'm sure the one without the safety looks alot better but still.....

    I like my LC9; ain't too ugly. Grip is as rough as sandpaper on your skin, but accurate AF.

    Agreed. Super accurate for a pocket gun. And reliable. Just ugly. The camo versions are cool.

    Walther has a nice grip but trigger sucks. Pass.

    It's a little bit larger, but a Walther PPQ has the best striker fired trigger. Pull is a little light and might be a concern as a carry weapon.

    Consider an Xds, grip texture can be too aggressive to some, but you can't beat the slim profile and added grip safety for carry.

    Xd mod2 shoots well, small and has good capacity.. Look past the instruction on where to grip it lol .

    And the Walther sights suck worse than the trigger. Pass.
    And it's a 380. Pass.
    And it's a pain to disassemble and reassemble. Pass.
    But hey, James Bond used one so what do I know.

    If I'm not mistaken Bond got his Walther PPK in the first film...Dr No in 1962 and it was in 7.65mm(32 ACP) and he only took it after Q shamed him into taking it because Q said his Beretta was only good enough to carry in a ladies handbag.

    It's what the wife carries. Nice shooting piece. Her M9 Beretta is a great standby as well, but a beast for CCW

    Hold the Line! If you are not holding the line, abandon your ship. Destruction is inevitable without more to hold the line!
    It looks like a decent gun, but I will stick with my P239 or XD40.
    For the price, I still feel like the Springfield XD-40 is the better buy. I have gotten quite use to having no safety on the XD40.

    Yep. I have a 96A1 in .40 and weighs like a cow for CCW. I carry a Nano too for that.

    I prefer my CZ75D. A little heavy, but spot on and easy to carry. The XD45 is kept on the hip for camping...or going to El Paso. Haha
