I like the way it looks and the optic mounts seems great being able to fit multiple optics without needing a plate.

Personally, I might get the threaded variant.

Looks like they made a Glock out of Sig parts?

It looks like some very minor improvements were made in comparison to the Sig. What will be telling is how third party manufacturers take to it.

Gun Jesus had good things to say though

I like the idea of the FCU trend, I wonder when a company will finally extend the system to rifles/shotguns.

Don't we already have that (for rifles at least) with basically every AR, AR derivative, and any other rifle with separate upper and lower receivers?

[–] FireTower 1 points 1 year ago

Kinda of, but if you could SBR a FCU you could swap it between an Ar-15, Ar-10, or put a stock on a handgun. That's absolutely a perk of lower receivers but if it was the FCU that was the firearm instead it could be even more flexible. Currently you can SBR a Ar-15 lower but then you're stuck with just AR compatible parts, with a FCU nothing would stop companies from selling pretty much most types of firearms that accept that FCU.

20rd magazine is nice for a duty pistol. Jury's still out on the proprietary trigger group. May be hard if not impossible to change trigger resistance.

The modularity is nice, especially with the serial # being on the trigger assembly.

The locking pin mechanism seems cool for the RDS but I'd have to know more about it.
