I totally agree. It had a surprisingly nice grip and felt very balanced.

$1500 if yall are interested. I believe they will ship to your ffl

Can you remember if it had a rounded grip or a slightly squared off grip?
Approx a 4in barrel or 6in barrel?
Did it have a red NINE numeral on the grip?

Where is the range report ya slacker?!?!?!

Just shot a mag into an old tree stump. Its unreal how nice it shoots. The lack of front checkering is noticeable but not awful so I am going to get some pachmayr wrap around grips.

Its dryer than a camels ass in the sahara out here right now and I dont want to start a fire by shooting too much Ill try to get to the indoor range this week
