it's vltor, not the original company. 
they'll have the magazines covered.
you know...when the Fortis comes out, someone will HAVE to shoot IDPA with it in a white suit, pastel t-shirt and no socks with his loafers.

Sweet
I've always liked the looks of the original Bren Ten. Would love to see a small frame full sized version in 9mm.....If not I'll have to settle on a .45 acp (I'm sure that will become available)

Now that would be some funny stuff right there.

I actually got to handle Col. Cooper's Bren. Talk about a double whammy - checking out the Bren, AND it was the Colonels personal weapon! The Bren fit my hand like the proverbial glove.

PS - And yes, I actually saw a Glock in his arms room!!!!! :)

And this will do what? Make 10mm ammo cheaper and more readily available in quantity in most places?

Could one of you fine pistol enthusiasts (and apparently Miami Vice fans) please let me in on the real reason that one might be filled with enthusiasm over this news? I mean the technical aspect. Because I am not seeing it.
Not trying to piss in Wheaties, but there's obviously something over my head here.
