Never heard of these guys before but looks like they are at SHOT SHOW this year.

22 LR Handgun
5.25 inch barrel
Retails in US for $200 bucks without the Ruger BX-1 magazine.

Anyone tried these? Or are they so new nobody has even heard of them?

I wonder how it's suppose to fit in hand... Probably if you throw one at me, it will take me like 1 minute to figure how to shoot without pooping my own fingers!

Good thing they have that holo sight on there lol
Cool looking gun id buy one for sure but i'm doubting we'll ever see them.
 
Wrapping a 10/22 action in plastic and jamming a stubby little barrel into it..kind of minimal, but a fresh idea. If/when I get into the restricted/pistol thing..it won't be on the list, but I find it interesting anyway. Thanks for posting.
 
While I'm not one to tell others they can't have something because I don't want it, I can't figure out what the F this thing is supposed to be used for. It looks like a carefully designed answer to a problem that doesn't exist. For attaching to an M4 so you can pot squirrels while you're patrolling the wire?

That said, it's ugly as sin, I don't want one, and YMMV.

Ya, not seeing how it is the "future of weapons" as advertised in the video. I think it will sell just because it is ugly and different. A novelty item. I'd like to shoot one just for that reason.
 
Well,

It's pretty much a pistol that can attach to things.

They produce a carbine kit for it too:

This would be similar to glocks put into a RONI carbine kit, or any other pistol in a carbine kit.

Or it can be applied as a secondary weapon/attachment to an AR15 or any rifle with a bottom rail as demonstrated in the video:

I think it's definitely a neat idea even thought be itself it looks kinda weird.
 
I wonder at the logic of giving it a name with such negative connotations .
I'm sure the makers knew what the name implied , not sure why they would use that .
