The Automag is much more beautiful though

I think it’s the ergonomics of the Wildey that get me. I haven’t fired them in years though. Then again I haven’t fired my old model Automags in a long time either. The ergo’s on the Automag is better but not great. I had hoped the new ones were good but haven’t heard much good about them.

Sadly, it appears the new Automag is a kit, not a gun

Some face palms are forever
