The current Bodyguard is a hammer-fired true DAO pistol. This looks... more striker-y. But maybe not?
The current BG also uses a MIM barrel. Wonder if that'll continue?

I just saw your reply.
I like your logic. I can't disagree. I hope whatever version of this we get retains the safety.
Awesome. Yeah, curious to hear your perspective on how it shoots. As a point of contrast... I don't shoot Glocks at all, and I really like the Archon. Feels natural and intuitive. Though, initially,...
Yeah, I think you're exactly right. I remember when the original batch of Strike-1s evaporated, the US manifestation of what became Archon was called "PMG"--it was kind of a joint venture between...
That's a good article. It actually explains the gun's genesis in Russia and how the design was first produced by Arsenal in Italy (Strike 1), then RUAG (Archon). Apparently, Arsenal is still making...
That’s a damn good deal. I paid $700 for mine, used. Honestly… probably should have just sprung for a new one, at that price. Nevertheless, I’m very happy with mine. I think you’ll love how it shoots.
Nice.
Rotating barrel and a longer trigger pull. Two things that, for me, would make a Glock more interesting.
His explanation of the apparatus on the back was truncated... but, it looks like...
This PX-9 review on Recoil is pretty solid...

Like others said, you can probably get a gun from a more established manufacturer...
The design is very similar in terms of its overall silhouette and layout, but not cloned per se. The parts are all different enough that nothing interchanges--except the magazines. My Daewoo runs...
Nice! That's a good overview. I kinda wanna read those chapters, he mentioned.
Yup, I think you'd be GTG with no safety. The Daewoo's SA is heavier than that... but I imagine Lionheart has slicked things up a bit, for $1700.
Yeah, that's exactly right--it's basically a hinged hammer. So, from a holstering standpoint, you're good.
Personally, I like the peace of mind of an "off switch" with a trigger that light--lest...
I use the safety on mine.
You said you messed with one, so you probably know... but... the DA+ is just an SA trigger, flipped forward to DA position; you've got about 1lb of "flippy slack" before...
Honestly, I think Lionheart is out of their mind with pricing. I mean, maybe with all the added features... it's "worth" a high price... but, I don't know who's gonna pay $1600 - 1700 for a brand...
I dig my Daewoo…

I’ve got Lionheart G10s on mine—though they’re a previous iteration of what’s offered now. Obviously it’s not in the same league as fully pimped out Vulcan, but I really...
Yeah, I remember hearing that Todd was not a fan of the Cougar. Like I said, I also encountered some problems with that .45 Cougar I had. But, after slathering the action in copious amounts of...
Gotcha! Thanks, dude! I may look into swapping out the spring.
I support, endorse and embrace this... erm... "motion."
Nice! Those grips look great. Very nicely done. And thanks for those tips. I went ahead and ordered the G10s. I think better traction may help stabilize gun during the DA take-up. Some fresh sights...
Thanks, Jon!
You know, I had an 8045 Cougar a few years back and I used TW25B in the action. Had FTFs. Action felt kinda sluggish. Maybe that wasn’t the issue… maybe the gun was just...
Yeah, I know Beretta did some crazy things with the Cougar naming designations. I know there was, like, a mid-length grip option... which sometimes had a slide with tons of cuts (that's the L,...

I've been wanting a legit Beretta Cougar for a while. Figured I'd hold out for an F, but this sexy 8000D popped up on Armslist for a good price.
Haven’t shot it yet…...
Damn. Impressed. This thing can shoot.

The sandpaper tape really made a difference in terms of feel and control. At 10 yards, it's kind of a bullseye machine. And while I'm not much of a...

Apparently, Nicola Bandini, one of the originators of the Strike/Archon design, struck out on his own and developed yet another evolution of the action...
I don't notice it much.
If I'm gripping the gun really hard for a long period of time during dry fire practice or whatever... I start to feel it a little. But I can't say I noticed it while...
