Yes I've seen the videos. I can't find any hard numbers for it, but from what it is and what I've seen in the videos it seems like its very similar to 5.7x28... I'd venture to say that its an attempt at a rifle-power handgun cartridge similar to the 5.7x28 but easier to produce/manufacture. Going off that... its freakin dumb. Once again, too difficult to find (and until I see numbers to prove me wrong, I'll say too expensive, too) for a general plinker, and impractical for a fighting gun. Not to mention, if used for two-legged targets, you'll have a high risk of overpenetration. Again, this is all what I can guess from what I can see about the round, I haven't found any numbers for it.


Agreed.
I got mine from armscor, and like I said I have the 9mm barrel so I dont have to shoot the tcm ammo. I am going to take it out today, it should run really good. Fred Craig personaly put this one together and tuned it for me so I would like it. The other cool thing is it takes para p18 20 rd mags, so I have a couple of those on order. The slide to frame fit is really nice I cant feel any movement, and it has had quite a few rounds throut it for testing and tuning.
