Another .22LR. Might get one.

What is with the hype/presentation? I thought for a moment they were channeling Steve Jobs!

G19 size but lighter, why not G48 size?

Yes, very stupid. Should have made it G48 / G43 sized for 10 rounds of .22

I'm happy about it, I want one.

I wonder what the parts interchangeability is with the G19, trigger, frame?

Need a threaded barrel, and bigger capacity mags for sure.

These MFers come out with a 10 rd capacity .22LR.

Idiots.

Adjustable rear sights. Several typos on the webpage where it uses inches instead of ounces for the weight.

I may have bought a 48 sized .22 for the kids. Not interested in a 19 sized gun.

Are they selling it as top end “exchange” kit or just a complete gun?

Give it a few months, and there will be companies that will make a giant mag for it. My guess is they are drooling over how large they can make the capacity

Well, sighhhhhh! Not even close to something I'd have an interest in buying.

A 22?! There are a lot of them on the market, some plinkers/field guns and some very, very accurate. And a bunch of discontinued, yet still readily available, 22s that fit in either category.

I guess I just don't see the need in the market for this. Now, that carbine they're gonna come out with next year, well yeah!

I guess I'm in the minority in that I'm mildly interested. I don't care that much about magazine capacity for a range toy / plinker / training tool, and I imagine making a reliable .22 double stack magazine is pretty tricky given how many single stacks I've seen in this space.

For the first two applications (range toy / plinker) it has a lot of competition of course, but for a training tool, building it with the same frame size as Glock's most popular handgun makes a lot of sense.

If the street price is in the $300-350 range and the reliability is as good as they claim, I could see getting this alongside a 19 for one of my kids.
