Looks fun,  but is there a lot of real world need for something like that?  Not being in situations that would require such things,  I don't know?

It has a great CDI or FTFOI factor in the US and a great appeal in the ROW where, in some locations, the locals are not permitted to carry SMGs or PDW Carbines.

There have been others before this one, but the ACP is the only one that is universal.

More than likely, if you don't see a need for it, there it's probably not something you would use.  It's fun to shoot.  Makes it faster to get a sight picture.  Allows for a much more stable platform and help with +25m accuracy.  It helps the end user be more accurate.  Imagine the need to outfit your national police with an impressive weapon for an international event.  The only thing you have and the only thing your "officers" are qualified to operate is a Taurus 24/7.  The ACP permits them to add presence and increase accuracy with very little training time and no additional weapon investment.

It is certainly not for everybody, but pre-orders seem to indicate a certain amount of desire in both the professional and commercial markets in the US and the ROW.

Thanks for the info.  I'm the type of person that will buy a gun just for fun if I have the funds.  I was just wondering what sort of professional use this might see.

I guess that Glock will be late to the game again.  I just heard that they are putting a 100 yrd rifle range in their GA facility.
