The ALIEN is coming! Ouch- $8,500

Warbirds

UPDATE- Link below.
First Alien has appeared on Gunbroker it is $8,500- not this year for me...


I think y?all know I do have a weakness for gadgets.
March 2020 the Alien will be hitting the US market.
The Luago Alien is right at the top of my list of potential new pistols to fill a ?just because? niche.

I hope it is what it is advertised to be.

Internals look to be a modern HK P7. I like.

Interesting lay out and internals.

Did I understand that it is GAS operated like a Steyr GB?

It certainly has features I do not like, but the low bore axis might be an advantage. Reminds me of the Beretta Neos which I sold after shooting for a month.

I believe I will wait for your range report, and then resist the very little temptation I have. I have more than enough striker fired 9mm pistols already, and have given up the expensive search for the perfect one.

I'd be more interested if it comes in something hotter than 9mm. 10mm or 45 Win Mag

Been searching for these on the auction side just to see what the price will be. So far no hits. Any idea War Tiger?

Warbirds

Not public quite yet. The rumors are around 4-5 grand US.

So if I buy one:

1) must become USPSA Carry Optic legal (currently IPSC Production approved, not C/O)
2) need a few lefty holster choices out there
3) I will give it a few months for some USPSA guys to beat them up before jumping onboard.

That is a lot of scratch for a kind of ugly pistol.

I am sure they shoot great and are the cats * but that is a lot of money. How much better will it shoot than say a G34? 10 times better?

Bore axis does make a big difference.  I bought a Mateba 357 revolver about 8 years ago.  I was surprised what a difference a bore axis of 1 1/2"+ would make on muzzle flip.  Unfortunately being Italian, it's way too complicated since it's a semi-auto revolver!

I bet finding parts for that will be fun.

Better buy 2.

8th line down in description he states that he expects delivery in spring 2020.  He is selling stuff that he does not have yet.  He has 1 feedback, so send him big money and wait, wait for your gun and hope is gets it to ship to you.

Thats what I was thinking.

Once there are some left handed holsters of course.
