what is up with the stupid looking grip and no trigger guard?  It has bothered me since about 1988, when I first saw one in SGN.



This is much better:

Wow, that does look better and would probably work better.

I always thought Steyr put out some weird products from their early days to now. I'm starting to see their pistols making it to this country. I've heard nothing but good about them but the grip is just at a weird angle.

Glock grips don't blade at the 45' angle. I think it's the Steyr M pistol.

Edit: I compared the two with pictures, they do look similar but holding them was a world of difference.

I prefer the Steyr's grip to that of the Glock. The angle helps to minimize flip.

Let's see how well you shoot that wearing heavy gloves in winter...
After 6K rds I have no complaints as to the grip/trigger guard design.

That's cheesy, we can't even name another gunboard site??

Re: the grip. How many other guns can also be used as a knuckle duster eh?
