Nope

2018-12-14 15:17:27 UTC  

What did you expect?

2018-12-14 15:17:50 UTC  

It takes a lot of money to bring something new to market.

2018-12-14 15:18:37 UTC  

so buy it already

2018-12-14 15:19:17 UTC  

lots of new guns come to market under $5000

2018-12-14 15:19:47 UTC  

Hudson H9 didnt cost $5000

2018-12-14 15:20:31 UTC  

So, let me ask the question. How much would you pay for one of those alien pistols?

2018-12-14 15:21:12 UTC  

that's just their initial run of 500 anyway

2018-12-14 15:21:27 UTC  

So they’re basically crowd funding production costs

2018-12-14 15:21:29 UTC  

honestly I was expecting it to be $2K or less

2018-12-14 15:21:43 UTC  

No, how much would _you_ pay?

2018-12-14 15:21:51 UTC  

since they are marketing it as a competition pistol

2018-12-14 15:22:11 UTC  

$1200-1500

2018-12-14 15:22:51 UTC  

I’d assume around $2k, understanding what they’re trying to compete with

2018-12-14 15:23:01 UTC  

^

2018-12-14 15:23:02 UTC  

(MSRP)

2018-12-14 15:23:15 UTC  

yea, it's got to beat all the CZ clones

2018-12-14 15:23:32 UTC  

i didnt know that they sold the Scorpion Evo design to CZ

2018-12-14 15:23:59 UTC  

i'm doubtful that they'd do that with this

2018-12-14 15:23:59 UTC  

Trying to remember the other odd boutique gun that came out from Europe recently that was stupid expensive

2018-12-14 15:24:15 UTC  

FK Brno

2018-12-14 15:24:19 UTC  

That’s it.

2018-12-14 15:24:20 UTC  

$7500

2018-12-14 15:24:44 UTC  

that was a unique development

2018-12-14 15:24:57 UTC  

but i think they'd sell more at a lower price point

2018-12-14 15:25:02 UTC  

They’re both unique development

2018-12-14 15:25:14 UTC  

well, the alien still uses 9mm

2018-12-14 15:25:27 UTC  

the other company developed a new cartridge and produces it

2018-12-14 15:25:28 UTC  

There’s still a lot new in it

2018-12-14 15:25:33 UTC  

We’ll see if they get past their first run of 500 guns

2018-12-14 15:25:53 UTC  

I’m not expecting much based on that initial cost

2018-12-14 15:26:20 UTC  

it's an HK P7 esque gas system with a fixed barrel

2018-12-14 15:26:40 UTC  

i think it is definitely the best in terms of "muh low bore axis"

2018-12-14 15:26:41 UTC  

Import fees are a cunt

2018-12-14 15:26:51 UTC  

They have basically no mass production

2018-12-14 15:26:55 UTC  

yea

2018-12-14 15:27:07 UTC  

that's the only reason I would think they'd sell it to CZ

2018-12-14 15:27:11 UTC  

It's not their fault but they still need to break evem

2018-12-14 15:27:18 UTC  

Dude that is litteraly ther competition

2018-12-14 15:27:25 UTC  

right

2018-12-14 15:27:30 UTC  

They are going after CZs share in the competition market
