Oh, and its convertible too, to what they're calling a half-carbine.

Looks like the Makarov prices are going to fall when the surplus ones hit here.

Looks like a cross between a glock and a CZ 75.

Really? I think it looks more like a PMR-30, with the added ability to transform into a RMR-30.

Personally I think it looks like a p.o.s with the option of looking like a b.a.d. p.o.s. Not even close to a glock, but I do see the springfield look. I do likey though, seriously.......... it go booooom!

O I definitively see the PRM in it now! I'd love to try one of these out just to see what there like.

Sounds more like an equivalent of the old Stechkin. I wonder if they'll make a full auto version.
