Then you have Vegas hotels. They charge a "resort fee" which is often more than the price of the room. But no coffee machine. You have to schlep down to the Casino and pay $5 for a cup.

I have a request for attendees concerning the Carmel, if it the rumor is true & it shows up.

The military variant has a QD cam lever to facilitate user-lever barrel removal which resides just centrally below the charging handle slot on the L side:



I don't see it in the (rumored) commercial version with the MLok HG:



Can somebody verify if the QD barrel setup is in the commercial model, or did IWI cheap out & ditch it to just press the barrel into the receiver?

I like the commercial version, more usable and looks better. Also hope to see the ARAD make its debut too.

No new handguns in 30 SC?  

A few new .380 guns announced, is .380 gaining in popularity?  I haven't known anyone who had something chambered in .380, nor have I ever shot it.

Recoil going to be about the same between the two?

.380 recoils light enough that a simple blowback pistol doesn't have to be heavy (as opposed to the Hi-Point 9mm pistol which is so heavy because of the heavier slide needed for its simple blowback action).  

Couple decades or so ago, manufacturers started introducing small .380 pistols using the same tilting barrel mechanism that allows 9mm, .45acp, and various other pistols to be made without a heavy slide to handle the recoil.  That allowed .380 to move into the small pocket pistol category, making the caliber more even attractive for carry use.

I’m certainly not sure of it, but will speculate that is a piston gun that takes a 416 handguard.

Really hope we see more .30SC pistols. Its a neat cartridge and right now price is quite reasonable.

If we don't see more pistols offered, it bodes ill for the fate of the cartridge.

FIFY.

Recoil btwn .30 SC & 9x19mm is comparable, .30 SC will have a little more recoil than .380 ACP in an otherwise identical gun.
