I looked in to buying one a few months ago. Eventually I decided not to.
They are expensive (about $2000).
Parts and mags are difficult to get and expensive.
Not a lot of dress up options.
Decided that a shorty AR15 or an AR180 would be a better option!

They are a bit expensive, and also a bit heavy, but quite accurate. You would probably also want the optional top rail, which adds another $200 or so.
Good luck finding parts or spare mags.
If you want something in 9mm, take a look at those new AR variants that take the Glock mags, then you can go with 10 rnds. Or look at the Storm. Either way, you are legal with 10 rnds, and you can use standard, easily obtained mags.

I had one, they are about $2000, I think they are well built. they are fairly accurate. the folding stock doesnt feel very nice, so you would probably want to try to find a fixed stock if you plan on shooting it much. Spare parts and mags are non-existant, but other then that its a good gun.IM_Lugger said:
Had one, don't anymore...
With the fixed stock..comfortable, accurate..
Crap trigger..(squeezing a brick) spent $300 improving that as well as getting
the sorry piece of s**t magazines to insert..
Fun, but considering the cost, trigger, mags and zero spares/backup...
If you're thinking of one.slap yourself, give your left testicle a pinch (optional)
and back away...
Do what I did and get a Storm (it's got it's own foibles) or order an Olly Arms unit that accepts Glock mags...(I've got/done both)
Less expense, hair pulling, teeth gnashing

Just a comment on the SAF mag insertion issue... I've seen problems where the mag could not be inserted with the bolt CLOSED, because the bolt needs to push the stack down in the mag as the mag is inserted. Unfortunately, when the mag is blocked for five rounds, there may not be enough slack for the stack to move, so the mag cannot be inserted.
Just a subtle you should be aware of, if still considering the SAF.
