Can you buy just the frame? Bolt pin design is cool!
I’m just not feeling remade classic designs. Never really thought the reflex body looked all that good to begin with especially with the mass production of the replica body’s they were so poorly done.
They said it's the same internals as the standard FF frame, just an updated body. IMO it doesn't hold a candle to a Gunfighter or FLE frame. They're really nice, very smooth and everything, but especially from the factory sprung a little heavier and longer than I'd prefer. More Belsales than Shotcktech if you know what I mean.
Honestly: This gun is everything I hate as an aftermarket accessory rolled into one.
Grip frame with beaver tail built in? Hate. Garbage.
Proprietary bolt with super-special locking pin? Puke. Eye gouge.
Price tag of $1500 for a replica of a gun that was selling for 1/3 MSRP used (before the cocker resurgence) and less desirable than factory stock bodies from the time frame? I would rather be a tax collector for the king in 1775.
The frame is a very nice modern touch. It would be nice to see them available separately at some point.
I do agree with ditching the integrated tail though that might require some redesign at the back.
The dye pneus have also been almost totally panned. This has a 21 designation so wonder if they've worked out the production issues or just going to let FF finish them.
Always hated reflexes because they sucked. It's really cool they are making one that by all accounts should be a great gun. Much better than the original.
If you like this better than the caliber, I would buy this. I don't see them outdoing the caliber for a new design that feels right. They might start selling calibers and other guns with this new hot frame though. I like their non UL style frame with the integrated beavertail too.
Cunha That is a good point. I'm on the fence for another new autococker because I just bought a new Shocktech. That and it is getting increasingly difficult to find paint decent enough to under bore so I'm leaning toward a high end space mech.
If this was an ultralite single hinge I would be very interested in a frame.
As it sits I am not. But it looks great.
I already own three Freeflow cockers and they are very nicely built. I am sure this one will be just as nice.
I don't care for the DYE pneumatics on my Clutch, they work just fine but I prefer others. I am not intending to replace them... but I would choose an inception 3-way and PPS or Shocktech LPR over them.
Need Inception Designs or Shocktech Products? Let me know!
I agree, I would build a cocker around that frame if it’s got a UL profile and slider internals. I just don’t like the look of the reflex style body’s. I would even consider putting it on my pump markers.
Love the frame design, the classic body, and the bolt pin. This will be competing with my Necrococker... But damn its nice to see those reflex bodies again.
