New backcountry handgun 7.5 FK BRNO

[PsRpOiGrRiAtM]

I've always been intrigued by this cartridge from when it was introduced more than a decade ago, but didn't have the $$$ to spring for a $7000 pistol (now looks like it's going for ~$10k)

I saw that there was one for around the $1500 mark so I decided to order it and finally see if it was what I dreamed it would be.

First thoughts:
It's heavy--pro and con to that, I suppose. In a chest rig, I probably won't feel the weight of it. It certainly helps mitigate recoil and it feels more like shooting my Glock 20 10mm.
It's accurate--point and shoot as far as I can hold steady.
It's fast (see chrono pics)--SBR ballistics out of a 5.5" handgun
It's versatile--drop the 10mm barrel in it if you want a more pedestrian configuration with lower recoil (feels like a 9mm +P or 40sw in the larger platform.) The S&B 10mm is pretty anemic, but was also very consistent, which is surprising for being cheap.

I see Gunfighters Inc makes a holster for it, so I'll probably order one to reduce the risk that it just sits in my safe as a novelty.

It's a really cool gun, albeit a little boutique. If you have a propensity to buy niche stuff, or suffer poor impulse control like I do, I highly recommend!

I played with one a few years ago. It’s definitely feels like a lot of gun. I never saw a holster option back then. My only concern would be speed on presentation and follow up shots. That aside, it’s pretty fun to shoot.

I'll have to practice follow up shots, admittedly it was a brief outing to get the feel for the round and pistol itself. It's a little hot rod!
