M170r

What happen to these guns? No more production? Same goes for the mech frame. When will these 2 items return or not?

I've owned one. Sold it. Kept the Emek. And the Etha 3M is available. In my opinion, the Emek/Etha 3M have better ergonomics, are easier to service/clean, and are definitely easier on the wallet.

Pretty sure production has been discontinued since 2021

I'm getting old and grumpy. I literally got pi$$ed off when I couldn't hose down the M170R, after taking a shot to the trigger frame, because of the non-stainless screws and springs in various locations. That's when I decided to sell it.

Other markers (Etha/Mek) have done better. The M170R isn't bad, but it's too light/small for me. Didn't like the grips, where it meets the inside of thumb on shooting hands they would peel forward and just felt weird.
