    If they could do that they could fit .40Super in it. Send a 130gr .40 pill out at 2,000+ fps

    The "butterfly sight" is cool. The CZ-75 SAO is cool.

    I fail to understand the $7500 price tag for a three-pound handgun. I do not see the attention to detail of a custom 1911 that can be used to justify the price. It is like 5X the price of the FN FiveSeveN.

    It will make an awesome subject one day for Forgotten Weapons.
    It's a lot like the Korth PRS Semiautos, or various Swiss watches- pure machine shop porn. Sure, there's cheaper options that work about as well, but that's not the point.

    My thought is the French or someone similar were potentially behind the original 7.5FK mission set. By that, I am attributing some way left on the Autism spectrum-Rainman solution to a challenge, such as a .357 magnum sniper pistol with a bipod. Same as shieldmen carrying a a brace of pistols like 21st Century pirates.

    The first reaction is Whiskey Tango Foxtrot...Then you begrudgingly admit it has at least some logic, but not enough to ever recommend it to anyone else. It just works for them.

    Or maybe there is some Walloon issue and the French refuse to buy PS90s. WTFK?

    I cannot figure out a good reason for me to buy one, but I am still a little intrigued.

    They threw that gun through the Ugly Forest and didn’t miss hitting a single branch....

    It’s a gun for guys who didn’t waste enough money on a FN 5.7mm?

    With what 9mm is going for these days, the cheaper option might be the 7.5mm whammo or whatever they call it.

    And now I know what I want for my birthday.

    Still cheaper than my wife's Korth revolver for her birthday.

    For a hunting handgun, this is awesome -- and for high end hunting ammo, the price isn't too silly.

    Nobody in their company mentioned the tendency to read that as "Fuck Bruno?" I find that hard to believe.

    It's ugly... but I kinda like it. It's, like... "functionally" ugly. You know that gigantic under-hang has a purpose. The proportions on the Laugo Alien (for instance) and FN 5.7 look more off to me, for whatever reason.

    It looks big, tough, powerful and well made. And... I think it is.
