IWI is bringing the Jericho back to the US! Thought you all might want to know.

Nice, always wanted one of these. Essentially a "Baby Deagle", with some changes

 

[Cygnus]

Cool. I wanted one of these like 6 years ago. Now I just have to hope it gets on the MA AG list.....you lucky bastiges.

 

[Bfish]

Very cool that IWI is doing this!

Love my Baby Eagle.
It's all steel though, and I like it that way.

 

[Black Cloud]

I carry my all steel, IMI Baby Desert Eagle every day, going on 24 years now. She's never let me down.

That's awesome, I'll have to keep my eye out for them

I like almost everything about the MR IWI Baby Eagle/Jericho 941
except that I hate that damn slide mounted safety...
(can't get past it - dealbreaker for me)

Although I almost never use a safety, I feel the same way.

The article states that the safety swith is mounted to the frame, not the slide; there is also a picture showing likewise.

I really like the change they've made with the safety. I wouldn't mind having one in .40 S&W.

I had a original 941 with the 9mm and .41 AE conversions.
Carried it till the finish rubbed off.
Heavy carry.
The polymer frame has caught my interest though.
I still sometimes miss .41 AE.
It was good round, but just didn't make the cut.
The memories...

I like the new safety. I'll have to keep an eye out for these.

Very nice. Thanks for the post. I don't believe I have ever seen one of these before. Can't wait to see one in person.

I have a Jericho 941 and have let several people shoot it. So I know there will be some very happy people out there that have been looking for one.

I've been thinking about a 1911 "style" firearm, and this caught my eye bigtime.

This is more of a CZ style pistol than it is a 1911.

 

[kawtech87]

Does anyone have any info as to when these may hit the shelves? The idea of a compact, steel framed, CZ based .45 has gotten me all hot and bothered.

 

[oldpink]

I won't be getting one, but they made a very smart move going to a frame-mounted safety.
That little modification from the original will get more buyers.
Even smarter keeping a steel frame available, even as they have a polymer frame version now available.
