Put the magazine release behind the trigger (where it belongs) and you have yourself a heck of a pistol. I have never understood European's fascination with placing the mag catch on the heel of a gun, thereby turning a one-handed operation into a two-handed one.

Other than that, that's a superb gun.

Nice "looking" gun...
Unfortunately, it is a $#@! paperweight!

Hold it in your left hand and try to shoot it. You can’t get the stinkin’ safety off.

Therefore it is relegated STRICTLY to a range/target gun.

I've always wanted a 210, but will not be able to afford one for years more. This thread is NOT helping my patience level!

The pistol was built because Ted wanted to have some fun and do something new... and it served that purpose very well indeed.

I thought that was that YoBo P210. Very nice. Ted should do an X5, those are amazing.

It's so the European gentleman can, after he finishes his string of fire, remove the magazine and pocket it, then reinsert a new magazine. They didn't want to drop the magazine on the ground and the idea of the tactical reload apparently is a recent innovation.

I tend not to look at europeans for gun advice unless fine shotguns, double rifles or the SAS are involved.

ditto

Single action 9's just don't have a lot of options for practical play but I bet with an american mag release you'd see some shoot it.

Nice gun though. Would you consider an even trade for a glock 34?

The idea of mag release behind the trigger is nice if it allows use of one hand, most of my guns have it behind the trigger but my thumb can't reach it without shifting my hand or using my other hand, if it comes down to using two hands I prefer the heel release which allows me to release the mag and letting it fall in that hand.
