    The only Steyr`s ive shot are .177 air rifles very nice but a bit on the pricey side compared to my cheapo CZ200 MK1.

    Looks interesting, but it will take a lot to get me to part with my Walther PPQ .40.

    If Steyr marketing was worth a dam, you would have already shot it at a range.

    And that would be bad news for the Walther ;)

    I'd be surprised if it felt better to hold and shoot than the PPQ, this has been the most ergonomic handgun I have owned to date. However I will see if I can find somewhere that stocks the Steyr locally for a look see. Definitely not one for the Glock fanboys.

    Re: New Steyr pistol

    It's not a bad little gun, but:

    1. It's not available in .45
    2. It can't use +P ammunition reliably
    3. Its implementation of the Browning rolling-block is half-assed.
    4. It has a static grip, you can't adjust the backstrap, forestrap, palm-swells or anything.
    5. Its trigger feels like you're trying to do calligraphy with a mop.

    In short:

    HK45 or GTFO
