PMR 30 won't set you back that much, and you can buy $500 worth of ammo to match the price.

I have one of those, and they are literally a blast to shoot. If anybody gets one just make sure you put an even number of rounds in the magazine.

I took my brand new P-01 to the range today.

It shot amazing!

For the first 20 rounds. Then every few rounds after that the decocker would begin to walk out of the frame and flip up and bind up the trigger. Not even sure where to begin with this one...

Rereading the federalist papers and thinking if the founding fathers were here and now the federalists would be leading the charge in the revolution 2.0 and they would all have the best weaponry money and mechanical ingenuity could render.

Not sure if congress or the Pentagon would be their first target ...

Worked another magic trick.

Turned a Swede Mauser into:

1) An ACH (including Surefire brand helmet light, Rhino mount and ESS goggles)

2) YHM AR free floated quadrail

3) Magpul MOE SL butt

4) 266 rounds of 9mm

5) $100 cash

Thanks! I ended up just sending it in for repair under warranty, with it being a brand new gun, and me having no clue about how to take care of that sort of thing.
