Seems like a VERY coordinated release.  Lots of reviewers/influencers released reviews and videos in the past week.  Will watch the videos, but seems like from what I've seen so far, lots of comparisons (and then some) to Staccato.

I've noticed this with many new products.

20% cheaper than a staccato. But a waste in HI due to 10rd mag law. U cannot have its full potential.

Yeah, since we in Hawaii better to have a regular 1911, at least its thinner and easier to conceal

I wouldn't say a waste. I used to think the same about high capacity double stack guns, till I got into sport shooting. Probably a cheaper alternative for those looking to shoot limited division in IPSC/USPSA.

MSRP of $1500 is pretty tempting and probably what we'll see from dealers if or when they get them in.

All the big manufacturers do this. They send out  free T&E guns to the big channels on the requirement they do not release the video until a certain date.

Yeah, I understand that.  I don’t really pay much attention to new gun releases, or maybe have been searching other stuff besides pistols for a while.  Even with new products released around SHOT and other stuff, this one seemed even more pronounced.
