Now that nearly every brand has jumped on the micro-9 bandwagon, are we seeing the final evolution of this platform or do you think there are still some needs that upcoming models could tackle?
 
Micro 9s have gotten pretty good but I still think the grip texture and recoil control could be better. I'd love to see them improve the shootability without making the guns any thicker.
 
Honestly, I think the next step in handgun design is shootability. Lots of micro 9s are great to carry but have that sharp, snappy recoil. If manufacturers figure out how to tame that in such a small package, I bet people would be all over it.
 
I am interested in a more concealable than a 911. But what is on the roster that is any good?
I don't see anything that looks attractive to me, so sticking with the 1911 shooting 230 grain round nose bullets. I was interested in the Glock 29, a compact 10mm, but think I'm over that. I think more eyeballs are better than me carrying a bigger caliber. One could also argue that 45ACP is larger than the 10mm or 40 cal.

I got a 9m ranch rifle for my wife to feed as well as others, Caliber is choice.
I guess I chose a platform back in the days I CCd everyday in the ghetto. Near impossible to get a CC in my new state, even though I had a CC in my old state which produced Bruen decision.

I know the laws when I came here. I may or may not have guns that are now legal here now. Who knows with the myriad of new laws. . Pretty sure the guns I brought can only be sold to LEO. But I tried to do it legal when I moved here. They just changed the rules.

Patience grasshopper! It's coming, it's coming! ;)

I think if you purchased them from another state, they are still legal here, kind of like off roster handguns.

As long as they are not classified as AWs, you can sell them PPT through an FFL to LEO and non-LEO. All mags 10 rounds or less.

Funny thing is, when folks post about moving to California in other forums, many responses encourage them to buy as many "off roster" handguns as they can, then sell once they're in CA. (Naturally, many other responses are in the form of "Are You Crazy!!!")

This is exactly how people were buying Walther PPKs from LEO, the LEO would buy the off roster handguns and sell them PPT. Yet another exactly why this is such a bad state... :rolleyes:

I have one that I can only get a 15 round mag for. I did alter one to make it legal for an another states laws. My method of altering is not acceptable to the Kommunist Republik I pinched off a mag.

So I have a gun, that can only be sold to LEO, just like any Glocks now are. Just because of mag availability

We really need some sanity to step in this state.
 
I know this year they took my cz sp01 off the California roster. I guess once you got it they can’t make you sell it
I used to have great respect for CZ. A friend is a competitor on the Bird Dog Circuit and they put her through a training class. And they bought Colt.

CZ lost my respect because in the Canadian confiscation scheme, guess where the guns are to be sent-the Colt USA headquarters in Ontario Canada.

EW,

The mag ban is ridiculous. Hopefully that's coming to an end and you can use that magazine legally. The SCOTUS has to take this eventually, and it seems we have a lot of states being split over this. It is not going to go away anytime soon. We need the SCOTUS to step in now and start b!T@# slapping some of the lower courts that continue to rule against the 2A.

The 9th even ruled in favor of the 2A recently, something they have never done in the history of the 9th. It's coming... 🤞
