New Army Handgun Solicitation.

Really good to know! Thank you for the info.

Speaking just for myself, if I knew I had to defend myself or a loved one, and was limited to a pistol, I would have an M9A3 in my hands. There is no other option for me that would provide me with the level of confidence I have in that firearm to hit what I intend to hit, and to function flawlessly.

Sounds good. I am looking forward to seeing one. To date, though, no local gun shop has had any luck in obtaining one or even getting a sense when they should come in.

That's interesting that there are no local gun shops,

I know of 3 in Australia that has the M9A3 in very limited stock and there is one at my local club.

For once we aren't screwed over down under.

Seen one in Atlanta.

The major distributors have them on allocation (including the G variant), so your more high-volume dealers might be able to get them easier than the smaller joints.

My LGS had one (M9A3) here in Texas a month or two ago, an F variant but it still sold quick.

Wait, what? They can't even use the Gen 3 block?!

You forget: Military Intelligence is a contradiction in terms that they work hard to live up to.

I too would love to get my hands on an M9A3 as well (G version, please.) If it's all that and a bag of chips I'll probably have to add one to my collection, right next to my 92G (which is REALLY sad and lonely since someone decided to stop making 92Gs again!)

Hey, I resemble that remark!! I'll be in the corner in my MI sweatshirt, drinking coffee in my FT Huachuca mug.....

I'd love to get one as well....oh wait...living behind the iron curtain in hell means I won't see one...

Aloha

What kind of license do you need in Australia to buy an A3, and are there any magazine restrictions?

You require a Target Pistol (category H) licence. It's a convoluted process which takes over 12 months to get and you can only use it at approved ranges.

We have 10 round magazine limit for all pistols and barrel length minimums of 121cm for semi auto and 100cm for revolver
