That’s a lot more Glock-y than it is like a 1911. Oh, and...eww!

"For us, when it comes to pistols, its pretty much either Glock (9mm Parabellum a.k.a. 9×19mm NATO) or 1911 (9mm, 40 S&W, and .45 ACP)..."
What? I'm not against 9mm in general, but who in their right mind would make or buy a 1911 in 9mm? That's a EURO caliber!

Ugliest handgun ever devised. The only way i know it could be uglier is if they nickel plated it and add red white and blue grips.

Steyr M40A1. Steyr actually made nice ergonomic improvements.
If I was to carry one of these plastic things I think it would be the M40A1

Cute, they took the worst features of the 1911...added them to the glock, and left out the good parts.

Its a particularly great idea for 1911 owners/shooters who want grip angle consistency between their 1911s and Glocks, That issue was already solved by Springfied Armory with their XD line. They're far better designed than the Block. And it's come in .45 ACP for years.

Ugliest handgun ever devised.Close call. The gun it reminds me of would give it serious competition for that title. The dumb-ass Colt All American:

The other image didn't show up. I guess the hosting site doesn't like people embedding their pictures. Here's the same gun, from a different site:

I dunno...
the colt looks russian, which gives it a different kind of “cool”.
The hipoint gots nuthin. It looks like a rejected prototype of a crossman air pistol. Feels like one in your hand too.

Late to the party. This gun already exists:
Smith & Wesson M&P Pro 9mm. 17-round capacity, three backstrap sizes for a custom fit, and a sweet 5.5 lbs. trigger from the S&W Performance Center, all for about $625.00.

I been wanting to try one of those. Farmer Dean was a lifelong 1911 carrier but switched to one of those (in 45) and swears by it.
