It sucks and I hate to be this way. But i just can’t bring myself to buy a new gun from such a new company. These small companies either don’t want to or don’t have the funds to perform proper testing. I hate not being able to support new companies and help grow the industry but I can’t afford to have a gun that has so much potential for problems.

Was just watching youtube on this!

Very unsafe! Just imagine if it doesn't take much, you could pop off a round just getting into the car while holstered!

The name alone and the billboard sized logo are enough to dissuade me.

Next pistol...Arex Rex Zero.

i think one of these was the first to pass military arms channel's gauntlet. not sure if that's the best test or not, but it is something i guess.

Shot one of these at the IV8888 shoot this year. That gun was horrible. The guy saw me putting a few rounds through my LCP II so he came up to me and handed me the Honor Guard. I literally shot 3 rounds out of it, dropped the mag, emptied the chamber and handed it back to him. He said "you can empty the mag, we have plenty of ammo." I politely declined. The 2nd worst shooting pistol I've ever shot just behind the S&W Bodyguard .380.

Was it from an Honor Guard rep?

He had an Honor Guard shirt on, I don't recall seeing a booth of theirs at the show though. That's not to say that they didn't have one or that he didn't come with another company though.

Kinda, but better. I wish the bore axis was lower though.
I had the Arex Zero one. It's heavy, and the trigger sucks. Well made, but it's not in any way shape or form better than a P226 or P229 it is based on.
