Had no idea they did these. Anybody have one? How is it? Looks like the button protrudes a bit on these. Seems like these kind would need a safety unlike the standard ones where the button is more recessed.

Its like a original Kalashnikov and a Italian Stiletto had sex. Very different,I just sent one to a friend who is Kalashnikov freak. I can't wait for his reaction. Definitely a fun piece.

I agree about the button! A friend of mine brought a "safety-less" auto to work to fix a loose pocket clip. Murphy's Law, darn thing went off in his pocket (with a loud sproing noise) during a meeting with his new boss! She did not seem impressed by this...😂

I like the design, but no safety is a deal-killer for me. I had a Protech Newport open that was clipped to the pocket of my slacks. No safety would probably be okay if you are wearing jeans with tight pockets, but I still wouldn't trust it and sometimes I like to carry a knife inside the pocket instead of clipped. No safety is just a bad idea on any autos except dual-action OTFs.
