    Why?

    Some will die in hot pursuit
    And fiery auto crashes
    Some will die in hot pursuit
    While sifting through my ashes
    Some will fall in love with life
    And drink it from a fountain
    That is pouring like an avalanche
    Coming down the mountain

    When I read the FBI stats on self defence and police shootings way back when, and my opinion it tainted by carrying a revolver for 20 years, 2.2 rounds fired at a distance of 15 feet or less.

    I can’t count the number of start up companies that have tried to reinvent a new ‘wheel’ and disappeared in short order.

    An 80% frame has failure written all over it. If you add all the costs, plus the expenditure of needed tools ,,,,,,,, gonna be an expensive pistol.

    I like the idea..... But I'm not paying $1400 for the thing. I could get a Glock in small, medium, and large for that, and still have plenty left for extra magazines.

    A Glock/1911 hybrid? Why didn't I think of that?

    Agree w/@Alpine, I also predominantly carry a revolver of some sort. (Although I have a wide range of Auto's to choose from.)

    Favorite carry is a S&W 642 Airweight in .38 Special.

    I also like my Taurus 740 Slim. (7 shot single stack, .40cal) Very nice ergonomics, not afraid to leave it in the Jeep.
