    I laughed when I read the quoted post as it is so, so true. If I was going to design a pistol around an existing single-stack 9x19 magazine, the 9x19 1911 magazine would not even enter the thought process. Too many variations with too many non-standard dimensions made by too many companies.

    Been better off designing around the S&W 3906 or 3913 magazines Or the SIG P220 magazine. Or the SIG P225 magazine. Or the Walther P5 magazine. Or the HK P7 magazine. Or the Beretta 92-series single-stack Type M magazines. Yeah, some of those are hard to find and are expensive, but they all work. And Mec-Gar can make many of them.

    With that kind of design compromise to start the project, my expectations are very, very low.

    You are all just a bunch of reliability bigots.

    We need to redefine society's definition of "reliability" to make it more inclusive and equitable.

    OK.

    I'm totally kidding. I'm going to go play with my HK now...

    I hope this new gun will work, but will not be an early adopter.

    Here's how I see it. You've got a non-functional prototype at SHOT where part of the deal is them trolling it for $. If Pincus and Company get it wheels up, you'll have a semi-functional polymer production pistol. Of course you could wander over to Colt and buy a LW 9mm Commander if you want to tinker with 1911 mags, or just fast forward and buy a SIG225, 239, G43...

    If I was king, and chose to assemble a functional gun, I would start with a P30 mag. I would then place it in a P30.

    Anybody notice that one of the definitions of "Avidity" is "consuming greed"?

    Why is this pistol on anyone's radar?

    I really like my Kimber Aegis 9mm and checkmate mags work well with it. I'll stick with that.

    Because nobody^h^h^h^h^h^hseveral companies have gone broke overestimating the number of people who need special snowflake hipster pistols. Got an AIWB holster for a 10mm Megastar?
    Books. Bikes. Boomsticks.

    I can explain it to you. I can’t understand it for you.

    Almost as many as there are Star 10mm Megastar owners.
