I owned one, because I was interested in gas operated pistols like the P7.

On paper they are wonderful. In fact, one of the "wonder nines."

In practice it's an enormous turd that I don't recommend anyone buy if they enjoy shooting. If you want it for its lil blip in history, fine. If you want it to run like a Glock? Fuck off.

It is on my list of shittiest most overated guns I've owned. Dirty, finicky with ammo, feels like a brick with a flacid wang for a trigger...

Don't pay a lot, you won't get a lot..


Arc.

...just make sure it's a real Steyr and not one of these:

Very good video, thanks for sharing!

There’s pictures of it on the previous page. It’s a Steyr.

Just an excuse to post that video. I passed on a few opportunities to buy a GB when the prices were reasonable because I once read an article on the Rogak and didn't realize the Steyr was quality product.
