Them wacky foreigners. It says Made in Italy, but I believe the design is Russian.

Thats like an Isabelle Carro special edition Glock
| Old news, do a search for "strizh". It's the new standard issue sidearm for Russian military. |

The bore line being so close to the hand is the real stand-out feature.
Anybody seen one for sale anywhere yet? *Edit* I KNEW that grip shape looked familiar, just now read a little more about Arsenal, and saw that Massimo Tanfoglio is one of the founders, that explains that, i'm definitely interested in one of these pistols now. |
| Maybe a good pistol, maybe not, the market will find out soon enough. I have 2 issues with it, though. First, do you really want to call it "Strike One," or "the first miss"? Marketing is everything in the civilian arms market, after all. Second, what's with the ridiculous bi-pod option. Thankfully, it's just an option, but it's almost as bad as a pistol bayonet IMO. |

Oh great...Another Caracal to welcome into IPSC... Did anyone else see the "integral miniskirt"? It's nothing like a Caracal actually. Quoted:
Not seeing anything revolutionary that has not be accomplished by Glock, Sig, S&W, HK, SA, Walther just way uglier than all the rest. You expect one video to show you something revolutionary? And how do you know it is or isn't revolutionary? You haven't fired one. "Ugly" is subjective, and combat pistols are not made to look pretty, so it doesn't matter. |
