Yes.... I finally drank the Kool-Aid.My P-17 is expected delivery by the end of the week. I am sure the Holiday may very well mess that up."Que Sera Sera"
I've looked on their website, they just have the standard Crown barrels, which are 600mm in .25. I want the lite barrel like the one that came with the Continuum that is only 380mm. That barrel is plenty accurate and super lightweight and easy to maneuver in tight areas. Plus, it looks bas @$$! I may give them a call and see if they can get them. I won't be ordering until after the holidays, so maybe they will be out by then. I did e-mail FX today and asked about availability of the lite barrels in kits that include the probe. The nice thing is the Crown and Dreamline can share magazines, so I don't have to purchase a bunch of different magazines, I'll have 2 of each caliber when the ones I preordered from PA arrive.

You emailed everyone Thank you. FX USA is very informative. Just that it might take a few days for them to get back with you.
Received my utg 10x44 scope today. Sighting it in on the 30cal right now. Seems to be operating as it should be. I got it off Amazon, shipped super fast but the packaging was horrible. Just the boxed scope in an amazon box.

First impression.. DANG it is a full frame pistol, not some little toy!Next... It does NOT feel like a plastic toy like I expected, some cheap plastic wrapped around a steel barrel.OH NO, The entire upper feels like aluminum, although probably glass filled nylon for rigidity. Fits good in my mits... just for gets and chiggles, I cocked it once loaded a wadcutter and took a shot, right out of the blister pack.WHOA! nice trigger. Yep, I am a believer.Stashed it in the safe until the "honey-do" list is over... otherwise I can see me playing with this $30 gun all night.

Did you not see us all raving over it for the past 4 years? I've bought 6 and gifted half of them. Of the three I have left, two were sent to Stalwart for his amazing make over.
I fell for a Walther CP99 blowback that would not hit a can at 10 feet.
