Budsgunshop.com has them listed as "out of stock" and a price under $300. I hope it comes out soon because I'm starting to loose interest, especially after seeing how much 22 magnum ammo is going for these days.

My local fun-shop here in Tampa - Shoot Straight - says they have 50 on order. ....just waiting for their distributor to fill the order.
I will check 'em out as soon as they get one.

P.S. Keep your eyes out for GSG-1911 - another fun .22
Designed from the ground up as a .22lr 1911

My dealer just sent me an email letting me know he's holding one for me––the bummer is I won't be able to pick it up until next week.

Anyone seen one in stock yet? I have my brother in-law (FFL) checking their distributers and so far nothing.

The new CDNN catolog that came in the mail this weekend has them listed at $299.

But with the price of .22 mag ammo and considering it utilizes slower burning rifle powder... I'd still much rather see the same 30 round capacity put to good use in a .22lr....

Oh yeah and P32s and P3ATs are $209 and $219 now.... great deal if you ask me.

I'd settle for 1, right now. The distributors don't appear to be in any hurry to get these to the dealers.

Just bought one at the Nations gun show in Chantilly VA - $435. Can't wait to get it home and look it over, then take it to the range tomorrow.

Handled one at a LGS the other day, but it was already sold and they don't know when they'll get another.

It felt heavier than the old P-30 to me, but I didn't have mine there to compare and it's been a while since I had it out of the safe.

Checked one out yesterday, very light and fit from frame to slide looked a little sloppy. 30 rounds of 22 mag a nice companion. Might get one because 30 rounds is 30 rounds

390.00

I just paid $289 for mine yesterday. I will be putting a Hogue handall on mine since the polymer is very slippery. I have not shot it yet, but for the price it seems alright...it doesn't even come close to the build quality of my FN 57, but it is 3x less the cost.

Where did you get one for $289.00? Do they have anymore?

One of my posts from another site:

After my initial run with the PMR, I decided to try a variety of ammo to see how they grouped (for those that read my original post, the PMR shot low left out-of-the box so I tapped the the front sight a bit to the left before I went to the range today). I went to Wal-Mart, Dicks and Gander Mountain and came out with the following loads (I couldn't find any Winchester ammo):

CCI Maxi-Mag 40gr FMJ, $9.99 @ Wal-Mart
CCI Maxi-Mag HP+V 30gr JHP, $14.99 @ Gander
Hornady V-Max 30gr, $17.99 @ Dicks
Remington 40gr JHP, $14.99 @ Gander
Remington 33gr Acutip, $19.99 @ Gander

I went off to the local indoor range and ran the targets to the 10 yard line. I was firing 5-rd standing strings and aiming center of the X on a B-34 target. I was firing about every 2 seconds except for one 30rd string I shot rapid fire. With the exception of the Remington 33gr actutips, there were no issues. The Remington's produced FTE/FTF as the rounds would hang in the extractor and not fully eject. I experienced the FTE about every 5th round with the Remington's, but only with the 33gr actutips. They also keyholed in several instances not shown by the 5-shot strings. I've included a couple of pictures to show the results. Given the cost difference between the manufacturer's, and the relative consistency in performance, I think I'll be shooting the Wal-Mart CCI 40grs.
