    So I understand how Polymer is the "next best thing since wonderbread" but how many pokes can you take at a classic like the famous 1911 till you go to far? Thoughts?

    Looks like an attractive alternative to some of the ugly pocket guns out there to me. Wonder what it would retail at?
    Seen them for around $550. Having previous my owned a Sig p238 I'm interested in seeing how one of these feels weight wise. Looks like these are 12.3oz empty and p238 around 15.6oz.

    msrp on those dang things is 699. I've fondled them, not really a fan. they feel "cheap". I'd probably own one if I got a decent deal on a used one, but for the money i'll definitely be sticking with my g42, and my p238 feels better.

    Yeah I think there are much better guns to be had for the money.

    As an owner of the alloy-framed version of the Mustang, if I run across a deal on one of the polymer versions, I'm going to buy it. The Mustang is, in my opinion, the sweetest shooting pocket gun going. I have read some good gun rag reviews on the XSP so I'll have to give it a go.....but I ain't payin' MSRP for it.
