Interesting. This isn't their first foray into handguns.

I wonder what mags it takes. Will it take another popular mag like a Shield or G43 like the Mossberg did?

Other than that, probably just another poly micro nine, a little late to the game. Maybe if the price is right. Time will tell. But with the hi-cap micros out there I don't see it doing well.

Yeah, I think being a single-stack could doom it (but I do love the fact that it’s truly, fully ambidextrous).

I was thinking they were introducing their micro higher capacity pistol. I thought the same that it being a single stack would hinder sales unless the price is right . However, it's good to see another firearm introduced to the market. I'm sure this won't be the only pistol model for Savage.

The new hotness in micro-9? MSRP starts at $479, comes one 7 and one 8 round mag.

I suppose when my Shield wears out, I'll look at the current offerings.

Lots of people with smaller hands like the single-stack 9s. Or even those that want a smaller footprint. Don't forget, if you had a great design that appealed to the women gun owners, you'd sell the snot out of them.

there ARE a lot of existing choices though.

Late and underwhelming? seven round mag?! it's almost 2022!

Haven't held one or seen it compared to other offerings side by side but from the video, not exactly what I'd call "Micro" to.

 

[DadSmith]

Waiting on some YouTube reviewers to get more information on it.

Chassis system....more models to follow based on the fcu - IMHO.

Nothing that appeals to me but for Savage fans, probably a great option.

 

[mmpsteve]

Another polymer 9. Just what the world was begging for! Apply purple.

Why no new micro pistols chambered in 32acp? You could probably get 15rds +in double stack magazines in some of these guns like the lcp max.

 

[Usmccookie]

yay....


Actually I thought it was great news until i read single stack...

It's interesting but as others have said, it does not bring anything to the table that isn't already there.

When I see a brand new gun, I think lack of support from holster makers for a while, hard to find spare mags and little aftermarket support for things like sights.

Now, if the gun is truly bringing something new, I might accept those issues if what it brings offsets them. I'm not seeing that here.

I can assure you, this is a totally new name for a pistol!

Isn't rim locking an issue with 32 acp?

 

[DadSmith]

It looks very similar to the Shield. So I say that is what they are comparable to in size.

I have a handful of .32acp semi-autos and have never experienced rim lock.

 

[TheJoker]

Yeah ... Sam Colt was probably wishing Savage would stay in their own lane too!
