Check out the MSAR 9mm pocket pistol

[Archetype]

Revealed at the NRA show.

5+1 capacity, trying to squeeze in one more to get 6+1 capacity. rated for +p and +p+ 9mm

DAO, drop safety.

I would be willing to run this puppy for testing! I can hit it with NATO spec ball all day:cool:
Even give it a treat of some +p+

That trigger looks like it may be tuff for fat fingers, any way it could be set back?

Do you have any pictures of it compared to other small framed/pocket pistols? How much are these going for?

[hal_5555]

ohh. i like the looks of that. any range reports?

[Kyle E. Coyote]

Wacky looking magazine. If you could squeeze in a 6th round and maybe set the trigger back (I'd have to handle it), I'd buy two as long as I could get spare parts/springs for it. Looks like it's shaping up to be a great gun, all the rest of your products are pretty amazing.

What I want is the MSAR .40S&W carbine. When will we see that?

[RAM Engineer]

they just need to run that trigger guard out to the muzzle, like the old Semmerling.

What's the weight? I had a Walther PPK/S - 380, but for it's size... it was heavy... so I sold it and got a Kel-Tec PF-9 compact and it is lighter (a little wider) and more comfortable to carry concealed. I tried my Walther as an ankle back up... that was really uncomfortable... I dont' want to wear a .22 down there if I can help it, so if I could find a light and small 9mm, I would be very happy.

MSRP?

[Detmongo]

i can feed it a steady diet of 124gr +p gold dot. but it might be a bit to small for my hands.

[Hell_Bent]

Would be very interested to see how it compares in size to a Rohrbaugh (not to mention the Keltec PF9).

I owned a couple of Rohrbaughs that I wanted to press into service as a "niche" gun. Unfortunately, I broke them both (the second was a replacement for the first from the factory) while breaking them in. The R9's are also notoriously finicky with ammo (read: Shoot silvertips or nothing at all).

If these can hold up where the R9's couldn't, and approach the same size footprint, I'd be very interested.

[CarlosDJackal]

Any idea what the trigger pull and MSRP is?

[Archetype]

I haven't been answering questions because I'm not 100% sure about all the specs...I'm not an engineer. I don't want misinformation about the Archangel going around.

[kmrtnsn]

Can you answer any questions about the pistol calibre carbines? Where are they? When?

[grimm]

Very nice, do you have a pic of it beside a PM9 or any other pistol for that matter for visual reference?

Uh, that's about the size of an LCP & a hair lighter - GREAT GOOGAMOOGA!

[gunwriter]

I played with it at NRA and it looks cool.
Trigger is pretty nice.
But the grip frame seems really long and it did not fit my hand at all.

[Archetype]

They're still a few months out...some major changes to them were made since SHOT 2008. They will be well worth the wait though.

[kmrtnsn]

Thanks Archetype! I thought that maybe MSAR was pulling a Magpul/Bushmaster Masada on us; tease with a product then never make it available.

Having carried an AUG as a patrol rifle in the past I am interested in the AUG type clear AR mags, any news on those?

[trio]

and what is ETA on this little jewel?

never been a big fan of .380/...so this would fill the role for me that the LCP has filled for so many others

[tpd223]

Holy crap that is going to be a snappy kicking little gun.

The XM30 AR-15 mags? They're in production. I'd provide some links to buy them but I'm at school and just about everything is blocked. Try giving ratworx a call, they usually have everything MSAR in stock.

Can't give an ETA right now...if I had to guess I'd say about the same time the pistol caliber carbines come out, since they'll be made at the same facility.

[markm]

I'll never understand the allure of novelty guns. :rolleyes:

Although at least it's not chambered in the pathetic .380 acp round.

I'm guessing you're not the little umbrellas in your fruity cocktail type either, are you...

Lipsey's has them listed. MSRP looks good if this turns out to be a winner...
