    I would genuinely help fund 2,000-round tests by SMEs or reliable board members on a regular basis.

    I'm in for $10-20 to help sponsor vetted/expert PFers wring out industry question marks. I mean, if not some of the folks here who either already do this stuff, or who have scary shooter resumes in general, then who? I'd take a P-F review on all this new stuff coming out over any mainstream media source. JMO, but I'm sure I'm not alone on this.

    Hell I'd throw 10 or 20 bucks on a SME vetting a pistol from time to time.

    As in unintentionally? Like a double fire on a heavy recoiling revolver?

    I think he means slow, accurate fire is boring and hard so it's much more fun doing pairs/triples with "combat accuracy".

    The most recent Guns & Ammo has a 1,250 round test of the Remington RP 9mm. Cliff notes are:

    ~No malfunctions through the 1,250 round test
    ~Smallest 5 shot group size @ 25Y was with Winchester PDX1 147gr: 1.4". 95% of the 5-shot loads hovered in the 1.5" - 2.25" range.
    ~18 round 9mm magazine and serialized steel chassis ala the P320
    ~6 pound trigger pull via a Lyman gauge. Same pull weight before and after the 1,250 rounds fired
    ~PVD coated slide
    ~Slight beveling of firing pin hole caused some bulging primers
    ~Extractor claw measured over 1/4"; MIM part with black oxide finish
    ~Spent cases ejected 3-4' to the rear into a small pile

    Other than that I didn't read any earth shattering differences regarding the RP compared to the saturated striker fired market. I'll remain objective for now, but unless you're a major Remington fanboy I don't see the draw to this particular pistol compared to other striker fired guns on the market. YMMV.

    I'd like to shoot 10,000 rounds of Lawman and Gold Dot thru one.

    I would donate to this.

    What the hell? I have never heard of this gun and sort of wish I hadn't...
