And like, it wasn't, it's not like a Glock where you can go buy a Glock magazine off the shelf at your, your local Bass Pro shop.

And it is going to run in your gun.

Like your 2011 magazines had to be like custom, uh, tuned and custom shaped or whatever, like to be able to run in your gun.

And, um,

Now, the difference is there's 2011 pistols that are coming off of a machine in an assembly line.

They're not all custom anymore, but yeah, you're right.

Some of them are eight grand or whatever, but that's not new either.

The Terran Tactical ones that have been around for several years now, they've always been seven to eight thousand dollars.

But I mean, aside from that though, I mean, you know,

If you guys know me, I have shot quite a few guns in my day.

I was about to compare myself to Ben Steger, which is not a comparison.

I'm not saying I'm as good of a shooter as him or anything like that.

But I've shot a lot of guns in my time, and it kind of takes a lot to impress me.

And the Terran Tactical 2011 is one of the few guns that stand out in my memory that I've shot.

And after I shot it, I was like, holy shit, this thing is amazing.

And I've always said, if somebody handed me a stack of money and said, I'm going to give you this money, but you have to spend it on a handgun...

that is the one I would personally pick.

But I kind of think what you mean is that Taron was kind of the first one that did the proof of concept that showed that people will pay that much for a handgun.

And previous to that, that would have kind of been unthinkable.

the Glock 19 footprint added a quarter of an inch to the barrel length, but like, you know, cut the width of the gun by half, but it's still whole, you know, with the shield arms mags, it's still a 16 round gun.
