But what's with the 2.5 inch barrel lengths on the Night Guards instead of three? Must be something to do with the concealment factor or the aluminum/scandium metal in the guns can't take the ballistics of longer barrels. Whatever, those are sure some nice looking lightweight handguns sure to cannibalize Smith's autojammer sales.

I am sure the 2.5 inch length is for concealment, handling and appearance rather than strength. These have a stainless cylinder and a scandium frame. I don't think a longer barrel would increase pressures.

I just wish they would bring the price down. And get rid of the lock! :sad:
Autojammer?
That's a new one to me. :biggrinjester:
