PSA 5.7 Rock with iron sighted slide and a RDS slide. RDS is a PA SLX RS-10. Backed by 25 rounds of goodness.

Mine came in this week. Off to the range next week. My birthday is Monday so a great present that the Chief Financial Officer (wife) approved. Have a Holosun 507K that will be here Monday.

Thanks Joe. My Holosun 507k x2 came today. It bolted right to the frame without having to use any plates. Bobby helped me a lot on how and what to get.

The only problem with photos of cool new toys is that I keep visiting this page: https://palmettostatearmory.com/psa-5-7 ... arrel.html.

And the big red button that says "ADD TO CART" is just screamin' at me... :???: :tiphat:

Great looking gun now Carl. I assume they make holsters for it? How is it size wise compared to a Glock 45 or 19X or something similar?

Joe I posted a picture up top of the holster I bought. I also have a mag holder on the way. It has a 5” barrel. With that being said it is close to a Glock 17. The grip is quiet large because of the 5.7 cartridge. However the way PSA designed the grip it feels better than a Glock 17. It is also lighter than you would think. The slide is super easy to work. Oh - the best part is it is 23+1 rounds in one mag. We will get to shoot it next week.

Ok, you have got me thinking about this one. I am getting ready to purchase a new pistol and have been looking at the Glock 19X, the Glock 45, and the Sig P365X Macro. All of them have 17+1 capabilities. 23+1 is even better. I guess I get to start watching u-tube videos about it.

Do you think this will be an EDC gun or more of a home defense/bedside gun?

Please keep us informed about your range trips with it.

If you are in town we can meet up and look at or shoot it. I will let you know. I am going to carry it some and it maybe a bedside gun. I mainly grabbed it because my hands have neuropathy and are beginning to ache with .45 and 9mm both. This should have a lot less recoil and it much better I think than a .22 or .380.
