100% in.

They need to offer a threaded barrel so I don’t have to spend a ridiculous amount of money on an aftermarket one.

Probably buy 3 ruger / psa 5.7 pistols for what it cost. So, nope.

What is the possibility of getting a 6x magnifies optic in an acro footprint? Seems like it would be awesome on a gun like this.

About time

Seems they waited for PSA and Ruger to force their hand though.

Surprised they didn't increase the magazine size to 23 like. PSA

Seems like the 5.7 would make an ideal conceal and carry round.  Chop the frame and there we go.

Not at all. Needs a long barrel to get the velocity it needs to be effective, requires a very long grip as well.

Why does it need a long grip?  Front to back, you mean?  Yes.  Top to bottom?  No.

I assume he means front to back because of the length of the round.

It is odd, but not unmanageable.

Good thing ammo is cheap and readily available for 57s.

Well fuck, I better start saving now. It'll be $1500.

To be fair it is readily available pretty much everywhere. Probably because it's $0.80-$1.00 per round.

So not ambi, but it that actually a manual safety? Fingers crossed...was wondering if it might be a takedown lever (I don't know anything about em).
View Quote
The lever above the trigger is the manual safety. I like it because my trigger finger can sweep it down, or so can the support thumb.

I'm guessing the MK3 will have all the same internals from what I can see. Likely just a re-designed slide cover, and finally offering the threaded barrel to the the civilian market. FNH USA already teased social media with Tim Kennedy blathering about it the other day, so it's supposed to launch Monday.

I want one but if there is a safety that's only for right handed fascists then I can't do it.

I would love to get one, but the ammo is just telling me no.  Yea, you can find it, and PSA is stepping up too, but cost per pill is a no for me.

You would think they would understand their market for this pistol is civilians. I don't see to many police or militaries buying this thing.
