New Steyr M-A1 Series, anyone shot one yet?

[Covey Rise]

I really dig the looks of the new grip on the Steyr M-A1, it has front checkering and appears to be slimmer than the M series grip. Has anyone shot one? If you have please post a range report and compare to the M series.

Thanks,

I do not have an M-A1, but the grips do look like they'd feel a little better to me than my M40. The M series grips are quite narrow, I don't think the M-A1 could be any thinner, considering they use the same mags. I think there are a few owners of the M-A1 at the Steyr club over on GT that might have a better answer.

I have one. Shoots the same as the M. The grip is nicer and fills the hand better.
I have very small hands and have no problems with the MA1. It's one of the few guns I have no problems with.
