    B&T USW-P

    https://www.thefirearmblog.com/blog/...-fired-pistol/

    Seems like a metal-framed SFA double stack, using CZ75 mags, seems there might be a factory ACRO cut slide.

    Plus ça change, plus c'est la même chose.

    I would love to try the trigger on this. I hope they make a 5 inch option

    Before I look I'm guessing $2000+

    I love anything B&T but they are proud of their stuff

    Is that a good thing, or bad thing?

    Expect to pay a premium for Swiss precision- you know; Rolex, Patek Philippe, Zenith, IWC, Blahba Blah.
    And yes, a Timex, whatever, "keeps just as good time...".
    I'm sure a PSA "Dagger" would serve a SD role just as well as the B&T..... Yet that's not the point; appreciation of perfection doesn't necessarily require being able to AFFORD it.
    A true "Gun Guy" (or gal) should have familiarity and a modicum of proficiency with most all firearms platforms.

    I can't take you seriously anymore

    Rolex vs Timex (+2 to -2 seconds per day accuracy for the Rolex vs -20 to +40 seconds per day for the Timex), power reserve (70 hours vs. 40), resistance to shocks and magnetic fields vs not, longevity and more. Rolex has specially developed lubricants on all internal parts. Rolex has hacking seconds and Timex doesn't. Timex has Miyota stutter and Rolex doesn't. And this is just the obvious differences. So no...Timex doesn't "keeps just as good time..." as you say.

    I’m pretty sure gaijin is referring to the common notion that a cheap quartz watch can keep better better time than a very expensive mechanical watch. It’s way too early to be this combative. Anyway…

    B&T makes some cool stuff, not always the most practical though. I’m not sure how I feel about the push button safety, I wonder if it is meant to work better with one of their stocks?

    I took Micro economics in undergrad and I remember a teacher trying to teach us about "disposable income". He started with... as disposable income rises more steak would be bought and less hotdogs, yet the class clown in the back said , not for me, "I like hotdogs better". Failing to miss the obvious point, Stopsign32v, were you in my Econ class?

    I don’t hate it, but also don’t love it enough to probably buy one.

    Probably one of those pistols that doesn’t speak to a guy until you see it in person.
