The gun came with plenty of pieces of paper in the case explaining to me how it could be dangerous and to read the safety manual and the usual cable lock. It has a loaded indicator. They were kind enough to attach a big stop sign label to the grip and a nice warning message is stamped into the frame. Oh and it also has a built in trigger lock. Heck, this gun is probably so pre-safe that I don't even need to worry about finger off the trigger or what my muzzle is covering!

I still like it though. I'm not overly impressed with it's looks, but it feels good and now I finally have something that I don't have to break my wallet in ammo costs every time I go shooting.

I'll bet that's an awesome practice gun for people who have P99's...

Why don't they make a mini-Hi-Power? :D

No, I don't want to screw around with a .22lr conversion kit. :neener:

Instead of a conversion kit, you'd prefer a miniturized Hipower that doesn't work like a Hipower and is made of pot metal and plastic?

Yes! :D Why put extra wear and tear on my carry gun? :scrutiny:

Yea,
A great little pistol, but maybe a little TOO politcally correct.

That's why I ordered an AAC pilot suppressor for mine. :D hehehe

It says the price is $325. That's already well over the price of the gun, but then I have to add a $200 transfer tax right? It would still almost be worth it just to get rid of the political correctness! :)
