 | Micro Desert Eagle Anybody seen one of these yet? I hear they should be out around now. Looks like they are getting into the "KelTec P3AT clone" game too. The pic I saw looked quite a bit like the P3AT or LCP with a tweeked trigger guard. Anyway, sounds like it will be priced right up there with the rest of Desert Eagle's stuff. |

  | Looks like a cross between a Seecamp, a Keltec, and a AMT backup. This equals yuck in my book. The idea of an all metal pocket gun still has a place with people, but the manufacturers dont want to gamble on it. Alloy and polymer framed pocket guns are light, but many people carry them like a primary. If Colt wanted to make some money, reproducing their pocket .380s and .32s would make them a chunk of change. I've always liked the idea of a metal pocket gun but thats me  . When I buy a gun, I like to shoot it and become familiar with it. Had I kept my PF-9, it would have been worn to a nub (even more so ) within a month. But with an all steel gun, this doesnt become as much as an issue. Couple this with the fact as many people do not shoot their pocket guns as much as normal carry pieces, their longevity is longer (albeit with a shorter lifespan gun).I guess it matters to the shooter.

| I'm past the whole polymer thing... I think it's fine. For a pocket carry gun, I prefer to have it as light as possible. I prefer polymer at this point for that duty. The new Kahr .380 is my next purchase. That little bugger is going to be great looking and hopefully high quality.  |

   | That Kahr looks nice but I'd like to try one of those MDE's out just to get a feel for it. If it works good then what's the problem? I'd like to add that to my BDE! You had to know I'd like it once i found this thread!

| Going price is in the $550 range for the Kahr I believe. Pricey, I know. But still worth it to me for a quality pistol. As for the MDE, hey... if it floats your boat who am I to give you a hard time? I just wouldn't buy that thing if IMI paid me to take it. I have a certain level of ugliness I can stomach and that little bugger crosses the line by quite a bit. Last edited by full-auto; 10-30-2008 at 18:03. |

| That thing is fugly. That said, it's not there to win a beauty contest. If it works every time and it suits your needs, go for it.
