I know only what the company web-site says and I'm excited by the magazine mini-skirt. I have no idea, though, what a "geometric lock" is nor am I sure what a rebated ceiling is doing on a pistol. The pistol looks nice and has a low bore. As I understand it, the barrel moves straight back and forward ("1 degree of liberty mechanical law"), just like a Mauser C96, Walther P 38, Beretta M 951, or Benelli 76. That's a theoretical improvement to accuracy; real world experience shows that unless Browning tilt block system is severely out of tolerances, the edge isn't there. I also wonder how important lock time is in a pistol. We're not talking rifle accuracy here or the falling of a massive hammer on a Colt Single Action Army.
Is the company serious? The double 1911 is quite frankly a gimmick. Will the Strike One (odd name, I think) do anything better than other pistols for less money? Or will it be so magnificent that it's worth higher prices?
Time will let us know.
