Laugo Arms has been granted an import permit for the gun by federal regulators.

Czech gunmaker Laugo Arms has been turning heads around the globe with their striking Alien series competition pistol and is in the final run-up to hitting the market in the U.S.
The company announced Tuesday via social media that their planned U.S.distributor, Lancer Systems in Pennsylvania, has been granted an import permit for the gun by federal regulators. With that, a series of administrative hoops are required in the Czech Republic to secure the export permit, which the company says should take a few more weeks before they "load it to the first available flight" to the States
The 9mm semi-auto has what is billed as the lowest bore axis available on a handgun, with the positioning of its fixed barrel some 1.7mm below the line of the grip axis.

Id love to have an alien so fucking much

 

[Edwardteach72]

But msrp is like 6,000

 

[Edwardteach72]

Oh and before anyone says anything about $6,000 for a handgun..

This gun isn't designed or marketed in anyway as a duty/self-defense handgun.. its designed for the shooting sports, and to compete with many of the 2011s on the market (which aren't that popular over seas compared to here in the US)

As an example an Atlas Gunworks "Athena v2" is at $5,500 aka this gun is priced in the same point as its competitors

$6k... Hahahaha...

Yeah to a big NO! Couldn't care how good it is because then it'll be better than my heart, breathing, arm, finger and eye could ever be! Just sayin...

It will be a flash toy for those with ridiculous disposable income, and safe Queens for others! Have fun!

Buy a CZ.

Buy a CZ.

Let's see the closest CZ offers to the Alien would be a Czechmate. (Msrp $3,500) and other than saving some cost what does the CZ offer over the Alien?

$5,000 for a handgun is a bit much, don't you think. You can get a CZ Czechmate for under $3k. Use the savings for ammo and accessories. CZ 75 TS CZECHMATE 9mm

Again this gun isn't marketed to masses.. this for serious competition shooters (or those that think they are)

If you think 5-6,000 for a handgun is "a bit much" maybe you should actually check out what top tier match 2011s are going for

I'd rather an Ed Brown custom, but I'm not a competition shooter so whatever... I'd rather spend the 3 grand and save the other 3 for ammo! Lmao!
