New semi on the market.

Anyone have or read anything about the Arex Rex Zero 1? Very nice looking CZ clone, it's a Slovenian import, comes in all the usual calibers, alloy frame. The name is a disaster but it sure is a looker. If anyone has one..... Talk to me.

CZ clone? It's the spitting image of a SIG.

Stupid import rules cause things like decockers and safeties...

It the reason for things like mag safeties too on a lot of imports.

 

[pilpens]

yes, sure looks like a Sig P2xx clone with a safety.

 

[DanPop]

The more I look, you are all correct, Sig lines. Looks alot like my Sig P250.
Regardless it sure is pretty.

They do cause stupid things, but I'm not sure that's the case here. I've seen videos of guys in Europe shooting these pistols. The decocker and safety is on the pistol there too. Also, if it is a SIG clone at heart, a decocker is pretty sensible.

Could be a case of rules in those countries as well... Make one model for all markets.

The name of that pistol is Swahili for Sig.

Sure, or they just like having safeties. Sometimes the simplest answer is the right one. It wouldn't be the first DA/SA pistol with a manual safety.

I think it looks like a decent pistol by specs, but the street prices I've seen hover near used SIG P series money and I wonder if the price point is right. Time will tell I guess.

 

[g.willikers]

Yeah, it does seem kind of pricey for an unknown.
What about the support - parts, service and such?

 

[Skans]

That's an expensive Sig-a-like.

 

[Boncrayon]

Why buy clone when you can own a CZ or Sig? Is it your budget or its design?

 

[JDBerg]

That gun has a 13 lb. DA trigger pull, which explains the thumb safety!

I believe it can be carried cocked and locked, hence the thumb safety.

The website says they are also offering a full size version weighing 1.78 pounds empty, and chambered in .32 ACP. Can you imagine the recoil on that?

 

[boatdoc173]

saw it advertised in American Rifleman--looks Sig-ish to me

 

[runningbear]

I watched their Mfg. video and am really impressed.
If i did not already have a Sig. MK-25 i would buy one the pricing is very good.

 

[DanPop]

The more I read and YouTube this gun I am falling in love. I wouldn't buy one until they've been out a year or two but I am adding it to my wish list along with a Kriss Sphinx, a CZ 2075 Rami and a H&K VP9.
