Ok fine. It's badass. You happy meow? Mags are going to be an issue though.

Well…kinda :bigsmile:

Seriously though mags are an issue. Would have been nice if they’d done a mag retrofit for something more common like a Glock, beretta, m&p for those of us living in post ban states. Yes, I said it. You are here.

Best vid I've seen of it so far....



I'm intrigued by the design --- its not often that such significant design change happens with pistol design - non tilting barrel - low bore axis - better recoil management from what they say.... Novel design of simplistic nature --- I give them huge props for setting themselves apart.
I'm looking forward to running one someday. Sounds like they have plans for other calibers and sizes in the near future too.

And admit it ---- a square barrel is just too damn cool!

I'll be looking once the the hype wears down and the prices drop.

Look at the front view cross section and it becomes pretty apparent how much mass the square barrel removes from the reciprocating mass of the slide. This could be really interesting!

I don't know if this has been posted yet --- and I didn't think it was worth starting its own thread --- but this AF-1 Strike One looks to be just as interesting as the 5.0.....
I'd like to get my hands on both of these and run a couple of mags thru them.
