    Detonics thinks that it is in the running for the Army's new sidearm

    http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/c...ry.html#page=1

    "There's just no comparison to what these large companies have in the way of resources," said Bruce Siddle, Detonics' chief executive.

    But what his company does have, he said, is a gun that would give the military what it craves a weapon with a modular design offering easy customizing to fit different hands as well as different missions. The ideas behind it even prompted a 2013 invitation from the Army's modular handguns group, which asked for a presentation on the company's efforts.

    Hey, if Detonics was good enough for Sonny Crockett, it should be good enough for operators everywhere.

    Down the road from Quantrill's big raid.
    Siddle is often out of touch with reality, big time.

    ...and if they don't win I am sure it was because of some conspiracy.

    Like when Ruger was all upset when they lost to Beretta.

    Even Siddle isnt delusional enough to think his offering has a chance, unless he's got USDA grade dirt on the Senate Appropriations Committee.Methinks he's shooting for marketing-even being rejected with prejudice from the trials means he can slap "TESTED BY THE US MILITARY" on the box. It worked well enough for Taurus' 27/OSS.
