    Italians

    It's a Russian company but the designers seem to be Italian. Check the website. I'd really like to get my hands on one.
    I can't think of anything witty or profound to put here.

    That bore axis does look low. I thought my P7M8 was low.

    It looks like a glockified CZ.

    I bet it would rule as a production div. gun.

    Plus. I dare you to miss that slide release.

    Strong resemblance to the Caracal to me.

    I know it doesn't matter as long as it is reliable, but that may be one of the ugliest looking pistols I have ever seen. Also, given that this is made by the same company that thought a double barreled M1911 was a good idea, I think I will pass for the time being. Also, I would have liked to see more serrations on the backstrap in order to provide better grip (personal preference thing).

    Resemblance to Caracal

    It does seem to follow the same pattern as the Caracal, but according to the specs it has a couple other innovations. I will be very interested to see how it turns out.

    Funny you should say that because I actually think it looks really good, which is why I started this thread by saying that I really hope it ends up being as good as they claim. Wouldn't that be something?

    I guess beauty is indeed in the eye of the blah blah blah....

    Just like you said, eye of the beholder. Also, given that they also manufacture this monstrosity, I will certainly not be purchasing this pistol. Just because Sig makes something similar doesn't make it a good idea, in fact I would usually say that is a reason to run the other direction (This coming from someone who loves Sigs).

    ETA: Though I reserve the right go back on my previous statement assuming that it actually does turn out to be a good and reliable pistol.

    At first I thought it was a literal "strike one." Looks like the love child of a Glock and a Walther.

    1. All firearms are ALWAYS loaded.
    2. Don't point the muzzle at anything you're not willing to destroy.
    3. Keep your finger off the trigger until you're on the target and ready to shoot.
    4. Be sure of your target and backstop.

    I wouldn't mind trying one out, that's for sure.
