That's got to be real close to putting them out of business if it hasn't already.

I've never heard of them. Just how awful is the design, to have no fix at all?

That sucks. No interest in that gun at all, but I hate to see the gun culture hurt.
Good on them to own up to a safety issue, even if it knowingly puts them under. |

I saw some and just assumed they were Turkish guns. Odd they're out of the UAE, any sort of prior experienced management making them?

I wonder if the problem is similar to the one with the M&P Shield? All of those were just recalled too.

Awesome.
I think this might be related to a story of some sort that I saw of a slide breaking in half and coming back at the shooter. Off to find a link...

Hate to say it... If I owned one, I'd hang onto to it as a safe queen / oddity.
I shot one of each the F and C models... Both were pretty decent shooters. Guess I'm lucky the C didn't snakebite me.
