Gun in question:
http://dsarms.com/prodinfo.asp?number=BTTP9

1. Is engraving on a polymer frame going to require a specialist?
2. Anyone have experience with this gun and want to share their thoughts on the board? I am in the process of reading reviews on the internet etc...
3. I thought I read that a .45ACP version of the TP9 was being worked on. Am I dreaming or is this true?

thanks in advance!
 
I don't know how you'd engrave on polymer. I'd fire off an email to Orion if I were you, and ask his opinion.
 
I can only help you with number #2....

I've had mine about a month now and shot it several times (approx 500rd total).

Reliability has been good, although I have noted that if the mag is completely full (30rds), the first round won't always feed; the HP will catch on the feed ramp. Loading only 29rds works and feeds fine.

Accuracy off a rest is excellent, I've been able to keep all but 2 of 30 rounds in the 10 ring of a B27 target (~3") @25yds.

Offhand accuracy is very good, although the pistol is in the 4lb neighborhood loaded with a light and EoTech, which gets tiring holding out after a while. Rapid fire is extremely easy to control, and 30 rounds gives you a ample reserve. Magazine changes are smooth and quick. A stock and foregrip would really help stabilize the weapon and I may end up SBR'ing mine at some point.

Recoil is dampened by the mass, although it has a different recoil pulse than most Browning style locking mechanisms. Almost has a delayed recoil feel to it.

Cleaning is a bit more involved than your typical handgun, although it was easier than most rifles.

All in all it should make a nice home defense handgun.

I sent them an e-mail a while back inquiring about other potential calibers and after about a week I got an e-mail back stating .45 was due to come out soon but no other calibers were on the table.
 
Paochow,
Is the back of the gun stock-ready so that after it is SBR'ed the DSA stock can be snapped into place or is there machine work that will need to be done?
thanks.
