Very good with a superb double-action trigger and three position safety.

Ash
took her to the range
The Good:
Talk about manageable recoil
. The gun is way more accurate than I could ever be. Fed everything I put through it with no problem. Had 1 FTF pulled the trigger and it went bang (I don't think it reset on that ocasion). Shot good groups (well for me it is).
The Bad:
Well I get a slight pain in the top of my buttock from the muzzle of the holster pressing on it (4:30 position)
The Ugly:
3rd mag in the right-rear site broke off, the left rear on is still there. Funny thing is I did better with only the 2
Any idea of replacements that could be fitted in? Or should I just try to super glue it back in?
The Insult:
Oh yea by the 150th round, the white dots came flying out at me. I mean I already was having a bad day (dropped toothbrush in toilet, 3 range buddies cancelled on me, the mag catch on my taurus still wasn't repaired and its been 5 months, g/f got pissed just because I said her phone was breaking up)
Even if I can't fix it, I love this gun only thing I need now is a couple more mags
I'll see if I can post my carry rig, and gun pics today or tomorrow

Get a replacement sight for the Astra A-75 from EAA. They have the part and it is available. IF you want to save some money, you can get an adjustable sight that fits from CDNN for something like $10. They install well, but make it less easy to thumb-cock as they stick back a bit.

So, where does one find a RAP-440?

Just keep an eye out. I bought my two on Gunbroker two months ago. I traded one for a Tranter revolver (best deal I have ever done in my life, trade a $250 auto for a $1,000 revolver). I am keeping the other until the end of time.

I just received a R.A.P. 440 through Auction Arms I had in the past owned a Astra A-75 in .40 caliber, and had been looking for quite a while.
The lips on the magazines needed tuning, the ramp needed work, and the extractor had to be relieved for consistent feeding. now it is as reliable as my old Astra!
