Has anyone shot one of these? I have seen them at some shows and they look to be pretty well made.

I have not shot one yet, although I am thinking about doing so soon. I have the one with the 20 round mag and the ported barrel. For a $350 gun it seems well made. Take down is similar to the Bersa Nine/Walther P-88 design so there is no easier method. Seems like it would perform it's duty as an inexpensive plinker quite well.

Turkish blend of Bernardelli P.One, Baby Desert Eagle and Sig in size, weight and capacity. Very accurate, light recoil. The DA/SA isn't my choice, and I don't like slide-mounted safeties, but overall it's not a tiring weapon at all.

I shot a friend's, and I didn't inquire about the cost, but it seems to me to be an entirely adequate weapon. Easy to strip and clean.

I just bought the .45acp version of it, the C45. It has a compensated barrel as well. I paid $350 for it. I put 100 rounds through mine, and it is back to the store for the gunsmith to look at. I have constant failure to return to battery. Clean, dirty, ball, or jhp, 7 rounds out of the 9 round mag will fail to return to battery.
It's frustrating. I hate having an unreliable gun, so I'm really hoping they can either fix it or get me a new one.
For the money, they are well built guns. The quality looks great. The machine work is very good, and everything fits together really well.
I read some good reviews on these pistols, so I figured for $350, I'd give one a try.
