I have the 81 FS and 84 FS. Beautiful well engineed pistols but their time has passed and are more for collectors as there are much better options for EDC. |

View Quote I enjoyed the video. The volume was in and out, so just so I understand: As an 81FS owner I could buy an 80X, swap in my 81FS .32 ACP barrel and mags, and have was is essentially an 81X? Is that correct? If so, I was already looking for an excuse to buy an 80x, so... |

Great video! I just got my Noblex plate in but I think they made it wrong.

Whipped up this universal holster that retains off the light. Works pretty well

The 80X is amazing! My first time shooting it I put all 13 shots in a 3" circle target at 10 yards with hardly any effort.

Turn the volume up to hear you speak & then gunfire is too loud. No thanks, let us know when you get a microphone. |

If you order 2 it comes out to 37.50 per, vs the 39.99 regular price at GunMagWarehouse and the like. Unfortunately the $75 cart total is under the $95 Beretta free shipping, so if you want that, you'll need to order 4 to keep that price. ETA: CDNN has the ban-state ten rounders for 27.99. |

It takes away some of the visual impact when you can't see it.

I have been hankering for a PP to BDA Cheetah sized gun in 7.65 Browning. I like the 81 and especially the 82s. Does an actual .30 cal can do better than a 9mm sized can on the .32s? Just thinking out loud that using a .380/9mm size can on both might skew things a bit. I’d buy an Allegheny for future use in a free state but they won’t sell them for stashing until later. |

Especially when they sent that email about "them being lost/delayed in a truck accident" or some such. They eventually were in stock. Nowhere close to acceptable. It wasn't a truck accident, we had several dozen barrels get damaged / lost by FedEx on the way back from melonite and with our limited production capability at the time, it took a long time to recover. We've sold nearly 1,000 of these since then and have had consistent stock for almost a year. I'm personally sorry though that we lost and had to eat a few thousand dollars in material, product, and time through no fault of our own and couldn't deliver a product we didn't take your money for on the schedule you wanted.

I’d buy an Allegheny for future use in a free state but they won’t sell them for stashing until later. You'd think it would but not really in the aggregate. Using a standard pistol can, the .30 gives more back pressure so more port pop on a blowback. The 9mm allows more blow by so less port pop but a little more noise down range. If you have a large volume .30 rifle can, it seems to do a bit better but that might just be because of the additional volume. We'll absolutely sell them to anyone outside of a state that prohibits their use and or possession. |
