I think it's as cute as a pink Glock!

Looks like a Keltec PF-9, just like the LCP looks like the Keltc P3AT...

I like the gun, but why can't ruger make something new instead of copying something that's already out there and making it more expensive.

True to a degree, except that the 1911 was a gun not a manufacture specific firearm. JMB developed it and then it was contracted to lot's of various companies for production for the military.

But yeah, touche

suggested retail is twice the keltec?
at least the LCP was about the same price and they added a slide lock.
They call me "Double J"

happens with just about every gun going way back look at lever actions,bolt action,pump shotguns, double stack 1911s

but i dont pay much attention to keltec  might have to look at the differnces

but with a major manufacter name on it it should sell

and being a ruger owner i can make this  joke
Think they have the recall letter drafted yet?

initially I was excited when I heard the rumor of this.  but for the apparent size, I like the G26.

this actually makes me want a LCP .380 even more
