OK, Ruger, Magpul, you have my attention with the RXM.

Kinda want.
This also marks the moment that I've forgiven Ruger the company for the sins for Bill Ruger and his son.

It bears a strong resemblance to Polymer 80, who was sadly run out of business by Biden, BATFE and Cal DOJ. It does show one typical Ruger in, the unecessary warning on the side of the frame about the lack of magazine safety.
ReplyDeleteIt's definitely ineresting though. Putting all the FCG into that module is interesting. I wonder according to BATFE what the serialized part is. The advertising copy makes it sound like the frame or "grip module" may not be, if it is exchangable as they say.
I'm not sure how that FCG module affects things as far as cloning by 80% makers. I wonder if BATFE will consider any pre-bent or pre-drilled metal to be too close to be "able to accept parts" and whether bending and like for AK receivers will have to be done. Unfortunately with this whole UHC CEO killing putting "ghost guns" in a negative light again, I have little faith that the incoming Trump administration will do anything to undo the fuckery of Biden on the 80% market. I have a feeling BATFE is going to make it very difficult to get approval letters for anything anymore.

The Sig P320 and P365 (as well as the Beretta APX & I believe the APX-A1) use a similar Fire Control Unit (FCU) that separates from the grip module.
DeleteThe FCU is the serialized part for the Sig & Beretta pistols
For the Sig pistols, there are aftermarket grip frames that can dramatically change the look and feel of the pistol. See the Wilson Combat P320 grip frame versus the Sig grip frame for an example.
I have seen in the past where some folks have taken an aftermarket P320 "80% FCU" flat, and bent properly using a jig, then the remaining FCU components to build out a "P320 FCU" then complete the pistol using either Sig parts or aftermarket parts (Barrel, slide, etc).
I believe Angus did so a while back, but a quick look only finds where someone gifted him a P320. Here's one of the posts. And then he promptly started tinkering with it. :)
I need to do more research but I am guessing that to make something that uses an FCU unit like that you have to start with an undrilled flat. Possibly it could be pre-cut to shape maybe. And they'd probably have to sell the jigs for bending and drilling them separately due to the Biden fuckery. And I am sure BATFE will be less cooperative than ever as far as getting letters from them.
DeleteStill, it is an interesting idea for 80% home builds.
psa dagger is still cheaper...but it is an interesting looking 19 clone...panzer guy
