I know it’s aesthetic but I’m not interested in 5.7’s and 45’s for anything but cool factor.  I agree. I will say some of that is likely due to it being a prototype. I saw the Jakl proto at the first gathering and it was way more clunky than the production model ended up being. I am cautiously optimistic that this will the the same. I’m in even as it is now, if they make it a little more sleek it’ll be even better. ETA: I hope PSA or a 3rd party will make a stock for those of us that want to SBR it although I do see some advantages to leaving it a pistol (state line crossing etc). Maybe I should get two! |

I love this x5.7 but she does need some tweaking in the looks dept on her.. to keep the highpoint off of her. |

I bought 5rd mag extensions for my LC Carbine to get to 25, so even if it’s only 40, I’d be thrilled. |

| I love the idea of the 5.7 but as the others have stated it’s just a little bit off aesthetically. I think it’s the angled grip and use of the Rock magazines is what’s doing it. Too bad we can’t get a straight grip with a proprietary straight/slightly curved magazine to match the looks of the MP7 a little more. I think that’s what’s catching my eye more than anything. Otherwise it’s an awesome piece. |

i was thinking about this, and as i havent held it yet, i dont know how much it weighs, but i did think that putting an ultralight rail on it would be perfect just in case. |

Otherwise it’s an awesome piece. It looks better in the videos than the photos but the grip really stands out. It looks like a hi-point turd grip. They needs to add some different texture or geometry. |

I really like the 308 JAKL, but it really annoys me that I have to buy it with a P&W that I have to throw away & replace with a different flash hider. |

Nice, that’s good news. Grip and safety gets fixed and then they will have something on their hands. |

Watch any of the countless videos people at SHOT have made. That concept model is a 3d print, not the full production model. |
