I have one of the first models (without the extra capacity mag) as my daily carry for years.. Did upgrade the trigger which I am told is now standard. Compared it to the new hi cap shield and they are so close, you could confuse them. The gun has been super reliable and I have put 10k+ rounds...
See people asking upwards of 300/1000 on here. Most are asking 200 / 1000. Small pistol are the most in demand. That said, i'd hold onto them and reload as you need. Buying factory ammo off here is extremely pricey.
I have a Magpul for end on mine. The key to fitting is to Dremel off the dimples on the inside of the barrel channel. Then a straight push and remove material as necessary to fit at the receiver. Working on an FG 42 style stock from laminated walnut. Pistol grip is walnut styled on FG 42.
Yes. At NRA show. $1800 a pop. Supposed to start shipping in July. Looks like a 2 month backlog right now. One of the booth guys field stripped one for me and it is a sort of cross between an AR and an AK. Very user friendly and accessable. Assuming a good review of a production piece...
Handled one a while back at NBA annual. Cool but heavy and pricey. 5 k was quoted. Heard they had a lot of reliability problems. AK is a better weapon.
