I dont trust like that

>>64273458 (OP)
Looks really cool and the price didn't surprise me > over 5k
The Staccatos are cool but not worth the price. This might actually be worth it.

>>64273458 (OP)
So have they actually built any? Even watching that video I have no idea how they can actually function.
>top eject that operates seprately from upper
>entire upper moves for racking
>buzz words out the ass
Pretty sure when Laugo hit the scene they at least posted video of their shit actually firing and not some shitty 3d render. Still got me to click the link just to try and figure out what the fuck it was so good job I guess.

They have footage of shooting it here

Very cool pistol. They should have made a polymer cheap version for around 3k instead of 5.2k

>>64273492
Staccatos are 2.5-3k, this competes with Atlas price point which is a different ballgame

>>64273534
>They should have made a version that costs them $30 less to manufacture and then sold it for $2200 less

i want the bore axis meme to die

>si=

>>64273652
What is the proper bore for fucking your mom

>>64273534
Thank you. Ok that's kinda cool. Not 5k worth of cool but this a "production optics" class racegun so that people can buy an edge over everyone else.

>new "halo pistol"
>isn't in .500 S&W

>>64273458 (OP)
The thinness of this looks incredibly structurally unsound to me. Also isnt it like $5000? Nigga ill get a nightcawk before one of these, piss off

>>64273847
it is an all metal frame so the thinness isn't an issue. Think of all the iPhones that YouTubers buy brand new and instantly start throwing on the ground for "Testing"

>>64273458 (OP)
or i can buy a pre b cz 75 and outshoot this pos for 1/10th the price

>>64273458 (OP)
bersa tpr9 is better

>>64274156
>the pre b version is better because it isn't drop safe and has a weaker frame
okay buddy

>>64273652
It never will. Physics won't budge.

>>64274156
You could, since shooting is mostly about the shooter and not the gun. But you’re not going to

>>64273652
Imagine if a company released a straightforward fixed-optic pistol without trying to reinvent the wheel. It doesn't need some recoil mitigation system that will only matter in competition and will make the gun cost $5000.

>>64273652
but its real tho, its simple physics you hold the gun as high as possible to get the lowest muzzle flip

>>64273458 (OP)
I am so sick of ugly handguns

>>64275384
Recoil impulse is a touch more complex than that. Recoil mitigation systems and the ergonomic niceties that support them are a whole rabbit hole. I've shot H&Ks and berettas that flipped less than a czoygun.

>no not a magnum cartridge stuffed into a semi auto hand cannon
Yeah I got nothing. Kinda regret not buying a clearance Alien from PSA for less than 2 grand.

>>64273458 (OP)
I would pick one up if it wasn't $5200. I'll grab one if they ever do a real production model. My prediction right now is that they'll give one to Ian, then immediately go out of business and turn it into unobtanium.

>>64273458 (OP)
How does it work?

>>64273847
Pretty sure that doesn’t reciprocate/move at all

>>64275765
>lever delayed blowback
If I was to assume, underneath that fat end of the slide that sits over the barrel, is an accelerator lever that hooks against a lug cut in the barrel or frame.
I wonder what the plan is if you shove a silencer on this. Those would change the backpressure and screw with the blowback system.

>>64273458 (OP)
Huh, non reciprocating slide and optics mount. Neat.

>>64275654
>Air-purifying headphones
But why?

>>64273563
If you think this costs them $5,100 to manufacture I've got a bridge to sell you.

It's literally $200 in materials, press 'go' and CNC go BRRRRR overnight. Produce 10 units (2-3 days production if just 1 machine) and the CNC is fully paid for which is insane.

>>64274156
Post a target. Surely you have some, since you're proud of your shooting. There's absolutely no way that you haven't taken at least a picture or two in the last several YEARS of shooting frequently enough to maintain a high level of skill. Right? So let's see a target or two. Very easy, just dip in to your target folder and post something. Anything.

>>64276264
Don't go down the audiophile rabbit hole anon, these are some of the most deranged people on the planet.

>>64276513
The best part is that they're all old as fuck and have reduced hearing anyway.

>>64276513
My favorite was harmonically neutral pebbles.

>>64276513
what the fuck am I looking at

>>64276182
>>64273847
It reciprocates when you pull on it to rack it
but when shooting it does not reciprocate
I recall there being another gun like this but I don't recall. Probably not the laugos.

>>64276567
snake oil
i dunno if you ever watched Better Call Saul, but it's kind of like that but more autistic

>>64276572
I think the Kriss Kard prototype worked a little like that. It basically had an AR-15 style charging handle.

>>64273458 (OP)
Company can't even spell their flagship video properly. Embarrassment. Imagine what their QC is like. This shit wouldn't last you a single match without smth breaking

>>64276523
>aura crystals for audiophiles
lol

>>64274137
They should know better than to put a finger groove on a metal-frame gun.

>>64273458 (OP)
I saw a youtube thumbnail with this shit and didn't click it because I thought it was AI clickbait. Damn it's real huh... neat.

>>64273563
"Premium" markups can be like that.

>>64273458 (OP)
I hope this makes the Laugo Alien cheaper. Too ugly for me, but the Alien looks decent enough. Don't know why they have to give these raceguns such a faggy look, it ruins the respect I have for the machine.

>>64273458 (OP)
>a fucking finger nub

>>64276796
The grip is modular, so once everyone is done not buying this insanely overpriced uncomfortable pistol they can remove the nub and actually sell a couple.
(literally 2 pistols)

>>64273534
>racks off the rmr or slide
that's cool.
it does look like the gasses and bullshit from ejection shit right into the rmr lens though.

>Instead of selling a gun that costs $200 to manufacture for $5200, netting them $5000 profit, they should instead sell a version that costs them $170 to manufacture for $3000, netting them $2830 profit
They're not going to sell many of these at either price point. If a single person buys the $3000 version who would have bought the $5200 if that was the only one, then designing the polymer version was a waste of time and money. Maybe they'll make a plastic one in a year or two, once they're confident they've sold all of the metal ones they can.

>>64275654
not a bad setup if you fly 100 days a year

>>64276572
The new Alien Remus does that if you engage the button in front of the optic.

>>64275643
I wish there was a 9mm with an ar-style charging handle similar to mkIV, like this >>64274265

>>64275384
Once you learn to grip, your sights/dot will return to target faster than you're able to fire the next shot. 2011s and CZ Shadows wouldn't be the go to competition guns if high bore axis were a real issue.

>>64273458 (OP)
Where the bolt go?

>>64273458 (OP)
Just get an archon type b if low bore axis is the main buying point. I'd imagine its on par with other $750-$1000 guns.

>>64274137
>it is an all metal frame so the thinness isn't an issue
That's not how any of this works anon. People like metal frames because they're heavier and soak recoil energy, the part that's going to crack eventually is always the slide.
