I've owned one, which I sold to a friend who still allows me visitation rights 
. It was a pretty solid shooter, although I was never especially accurate with it. My friend likes it because he can rapid-fire it even faster than his Glock 17 - he's been threatening to shoot IPSC with it, using several 17-rd South African KRD mags that he bought soon after I sold the gun to him.
I didn't like the finger-groove rubber grips it came with, and I replaced them with a set of Uncle Mike's grip panels for a Browning Hi-Power which fit perfectly and felt much better. I also removed the magazine disconnector, which neither I nor my shooting buddy felt the need to keep. As it happened, the gun fit just right into an open-bottomed holster I had for my Kahr K40. The only other thing I would have changed on the gun if I had kept it would have been the sights, which were a little too small for my liking. All in all, for a $200 gun, the Arcus was an excellent buy.

Ive shot them and actually have one I got used a couple of weeks ago, but its been at the gun doctor getting a triggerectomy.
I shot it twice and it is a great shooter given it needed trigger help.
Ill admit its one of the nicest recoiling 9mm's Ive owned.
It felt like a Ruger 22 with 9mm ball ammo.
Its not as accurate as my CZ's but I really didnt expect it to be either.
The trigger should make some marked improvements to the accuracy also.
Great gun for the money and even for more. I like it..............
Shoot well.

Do a search on here, there's a lot of info. I've been thinking about getting a model 98 for a while now. Either that or a used FEG HP clone for about the same price.

Im convinced that the Arcus in any of its variations is the best buy on the market.They are machined from forgings and made from top quality steel.

I have an Arcus with about 2000 rounds through it. The only thing I don't like are the looks of the square slide, but it has performed flawlessly. Recoil is very light and accuracy is very good. What else could you possibly ask for at $249?
I finally got a chance to shoot mine. I'm very impressed with it. Good fit and finish, and I was very pleasantly surprised by the accuracy, especially considering that I got a compact model. I was able to get 8-10 inch groups at 50 yards, and I barely even qualify as a newbie. It never had a hicup in 300 rounds of cheap ammo either.
