I'm not a big fan of the 9m/m but its a nice looking piece.

Got an E-Mail on this gun. Very interesting. Even more interesting is they are going to bring it out in .40 a little later. That I might do.

a .40 would be nice

That is a nice looking piece, the .40 should be sweet.

The reviews are great and I personally want one, but it kinda sucks that Remington announced a MSRP of $389 then just a week later bumped it up to $420. Even at the $420 I think they're gonna be hard to get for a while.

Curious to see how the laser mounts...anyone seen any photos of that? I do think that is a nice firearm...I am gonna get on the list...

Found it.. My gun guy is at this show right now and nobody else at the store knows anything about it yet. Gotta wait till he gets back!

Its a little larger than I first thought it was...not really a sub-compact which was a major attraction to me.
I still like it, but thought it was smaller than it appears to actually be.

Here it is side by side with a 1911.

Agree Zook.
Looking at that comparison, the size and disproportionate design kill the thing in my eyes. That puts it in a virtual OCEAN of other Weapons in that Class which will be VERY hard for it to tread water in their wake.
That small Receiver Assembly (Slide/Barrel Group) has got to make it "jumpy" and forward light with the 9mm or the .40 cal rounds. Even in the .380 cal. it would be more squirrely than the Walther or Bersa style. It is too large to compete with the LCP or the LC9 or the Taurus TC's (etc.) and too light (handle centered design) to compete with the XDs 9mm, Glock (as in the article you linked) or the Sig Sub-compact.
Don't like to hate on anything I haven't personally seen, felt, or shot but on the surface from all I see it will be found Lacking in many/most areas.
Besides,,,, May be just me but that thing is one Ugly piece.

[Trent]

Oh yeah... Looks way biiger than they are trying to pass off. Specially next that 1911... Hmmmmm Maybe nevermind....

[Papa Zook]

Glock's new model 42 sub-compact is interesting, its not only compact but a lot thinner than anything they've built till now. Its offered just in 380 right now, but talk is they may have it in 9mm in the not too distant future.

The new Glock 42 pocket pistol is getting a lot of buzz. Its compact and quite a bit thinner than anything they've built, available only in 380 right now, but word is Glock may offer it in 9mm in the future.

That looks like a very nice gun. I will keep an eye on that for coming out in 9mm. I like the slimness.... Thnx!

[Veritas44]

Single-stack
Seems to be the preferred CCW config for good reason.

[Rod69]

Like the single stack. Doesn't take long to change. Just a little practice. Going to look @ a S&W M&P Shield in .40 today. Any body have one? Do you like it?

[rmrc51]

I still haven't bought my last pistol which I want to be a concealed carry. This new Remington will definitely be on my list to check out!

It's small. Has a very nice trigger. Accurate and reliable. I don't leave home without it! I like it a lot. Use an inside the pocket carry and an appendix carry holsters. Good luck with your shopping. I did make one modification to it..Tru Glo night sights. I find it suits my purposes just fine.

[Rod69]

Thanks Blueline, appreciate the info.

i have always been a 45 caliber guy in the 1911 style auto's. presently i carry a Taurus in stainless with tru glo sights and the trigger is great right out of the box. i know it is large and heavy to carry but if the occasion to use it ever arises it will do the job intended. i have attended many personal gun training sessions and classes in my days and used to teach pistol classes. in my opinion and many professionals the 380's and 9mm are to small to do what you want them to do. yes, they will kill a person as will a 22 but they do not have the stopping power of a 40 or 45. God forbid you ever have to use a gun in a life threatening situation but if you do those small calibers are not what you want. why do you think law enforcement and military people carry 40's or 45's, because they want the best caliber out there to stop the problem as quick as possible. there have been many occasions that the attacker has still caused serious injury or even death to the victim after being shot with the small calibers so when this pistol comes out in the bigger calibers go buy one but not until. any gun is better than no gun at all so the important thing is to arm yourself and protect the second amendment from the idiots we have in power now who are trying to take your rights away. who is going to protect you if you do not protect yourself, the gov't, yeah right?
