I tried googling the purpose of this. I honestly couldn't find it.
It's so bulky and large would a person really use it for "pistol hunting"? And as for this at the end of the article
G&R has a video of it from Remington. https://www.gunsandammo.com/show/guns-and-ammo-tv/181995

Home defense with a bolt gun?

Sounds like Remington is working with cumhole to ban semi autos.

HAH, do they even make the XP 100 anymore. I never had any interest in them but they were well made and crafted. That new one has a clunky, Neo-industrial look to me, but then, taste has no boundary.

Yeah I’ll pass on that
Yea, I'm still trying to find the guy who thought amy schumer was ever Fuckable!!
See how we can always seem to bring things full circle??!!

I'd be more interested in a Glock revolver.
Pistol hunting 100%.
Give it some time and I am sure SB tactical will have a brace for it.
Now again you have a "pistol" for those pistol only areas

If you look at the rear, it's set up to accept a brace. All the others here can't put 2 and 2 together.
Good job. Edward. You will go places. The others here, not so much.

Interesting.
I remember months ago when this first came out and I was showing friends and shit and the hate was real.
Then I reminded them that they hunt in Shotgun/handgun only areas, and imagine this with a pistol brace, now you can hunt with a .308

Not only that, with a folding arm brace and short barrel, it could easily go into a pack. 21 inches vs 40 plus inches.
Let's not forget the weight savings

I didn’t realize some areas were pistol only (maybe I did I recall at least one WMU around Rochester is not rifle). This completely explains it.

Isn't that what @meketrefe said about his wildcat round?
Not pistol only, but IIRC, shotgun only areas allow for pistol hunting as well. Which this would fall under

Outside the silhouette shooting community and casual hunting guy there is little market for this.
One of the biggest issues with bolt action pistols is that a left hand smooth action can make a faster pistol
than the right action unless you are a left handed shooter. It is hard to say w/o looking at the hunting style
but there is no stock (obviously) and no much hand-guard sometimes to have the leverage and speed
and versatility one has with an actual rifle.
Another attractive aspect of the pistol is fast barrel swaps for those type of enthusiasts, something remingnton
doesn't have out of the box but one can get done via "remage" barrel nut at additional cost.
Again, this is something out of the box for savage.
So I am not sure where they are going with this, three horrible choices of calibers for silhouette shooting.
And yes our 35 Gunner is so much better for a pistol, silhouette or anything else including large game.
Remington again pissing outside the urinal.
...if they only listened to the community.

Meke. Every gun is useless to you unless it's a gun you really like with a really long barrel so that powder isn't wasted.
Did you read the reasons why this would work for some? Not everyone is a paper puncher who shoots at distance. Some hunting areas you can't even see 50 yards in front of you. Some areas only allow pistols and shotguns. Someone else may like this with an Arm Brace and a folding stock for a camping trip that isn't primary based on hunting so that it can be out of the way in a backpack. Someone else may want it in .223 for a tractor gun for varmints. Ect...

I have to admit I’m intrigued this would make quite a fun toy. Can’t imagine it being anything more than a fun gun. Steep price tag though.

Did they at least fix the trigger?

Waste of money. Get a Thompson Center Contender pistol and get different caliber barrels.

Had one for a while and traded it for an Encore to get heavier hitting rounds. Killed a lot of deer with my Contender though

Can you use a brace on that Thompson like a regular stocked SBR rifle?

What the law doesn't see.......

It's legal to use a brace. I'm just wondering how one would attach it to a contender.

No one currently offers one for the Contender or Encore but if someone thought enough into it one could be made to incorporate the grip. But for my comment above, the Contender and Encore handguns are the same identical frame as their rifle counterparts.

For that you have compact carbines, big bore levers and hunting revolvers along with some semi-auto pistols.
It is not just me, many ballistics and practical shooters and enthusiasts will tell you the same.
The pistols in bolt action have very limited following due to the lack of versatility.
Out of all the re-loaders and wildcatters is a small portion that at the same time they are a small portion of the
entire shooting and reloading community themselves like shooters.
horrible choice of calibers for that type of crowd. 6.5mm and 7mm TCU those are affordable pistol calibers with some punch for short
barrels. The 30 herret from a 6.8 SPC is also another super efficient round. Actuall the 6.8SPC will do so much better at anything they
are trying to do with out of the box ammo. Even a lever action 357 carbine or pistol will be a lot more realistic and versatile.
A Remington 700 pistol brings nothing to the table neither those calibers.
This is a fact not an opinion.

Yeah but what if I don't want a revolver or some long lever action that I can't fold the stock and that I have to buy ammo for a hunt. What if I just want this in .223 loaded with a 75 gr Gold Dot which even through a short 10.5 inch barrel performs more than adequately for the puny deer here?
What if I want it in .308? Are you telling me that it won't penetrate a deer at 75 yards because it has a 12.5 inch barrel?
What if I don't want a 4, 5, 6, or 7mm wildcat cartridge that I have to reload or any other nonsense that I can't buy at the store and I already have tons of 75 gr Gold Dots?
What if I want this to hunt in Putnam County that only allows shotguns and pistols and I don't want to hunt with a pistol or buy a shotgun because my shoulder hurts?
Jeeze man... Like I said. Not everyone wants a really long rifle with a footlong scope to shoot at a bench.
