I like interesting firearms and the Archon Type B qualifies as interesting.
It's also leaning on the more expensive side, causing me to be a bit more picky about it "features".
The feature I have questions about is what Archon describes as this:
"Integrated beavertail with featured contour to activate tendon in hand for better grip."
It looks more to me like necessary structural support that they may be selling as a "feature" rather than a trade-off. However, I could be wrong.
Does anyone here have any experience with the Archon Type B? If so, what's your take on this contour (or possible structural brace)? Does it actually cause the grip to involuntarily tighten up recoil or is this simply slick marketing? Does this feature become noticeable and annoying over the range session or is it inconspicuous as I've heard some say?
Thanks in advance.
