Any new gun by the major gun manufacturers is a plus for all of us. We get to enjoy new firearms. Definitely wanting to get one once it's out.

May it be a little smaller and a lot better than the other options of the market

Fixed it for you in capital letters.

I would grab a grey or FDE frame version on sight.

Yes, 3 or 4, maybe. LOL.

As with all new pistols, I’ll wait till this is out before I form an opinion.

Thus far it looks like a Hellcat.

I agree. I would want to wait until any and all possible issues with it is worked out after production.

I remember when the biggest tool won the pool. Now he with the smallest tool wins? I get a kick out of someone that buys a micro and adds a plus extension. Why? Just buy a bigger pistol to begin with. It is neat to watch how small autos can get and still function as a viable option. I’m in no way against it. I’m just not in the *how small can I go* crowd.

There may be some issues but this is HK, not Sig.

I’ll tell you why I do it. I have a regular 365 that I carry a 12 round mag in when it’s IWB. When I carry it in my pocket or in an ankle rig as a backup it has the flush 10rnd mag in it. I get a “kick” out of it serving multiple roles.

I think most manufacturers have some issues with some of their wares shortly after production regardless if they are browning, colt, s&w, sig, or hk. I think you are "binded by the light". Regardless of what you think, hk is not all that just like any other manufacturing company! Whoopty do in your subaru, or your yugo, or kia throw away vehicles.

Great idea. But if u had two it would be even better. U could carry both at once.

I have been known to carry an original Springfield XDs in .45, and will only use the standard magazines even as a spare mag. If I want/need something with a bigger grip area, I go to a bigger overall weapon choice

Since you are unaware the Sig P320 Fiasco went on for a very long time. HK has a much better track record. Live and learn.

Dammit....it does! Ahhh! Its gotta feel better in the hand. Hanz wouldn't do the HK fan boys like that would he?!

I've seen an actual pic of it. Its safe to assume vids on it will likely be out pretty soon.

We're at the point where it's not difficult to make a mediocre striker fired 9mm people popper for concealed carry.

It looks like a Hellcat, but doesn't mean it's a clone. I expect it to be like a VP9, but small. I'm not an HK fanboy like some, but I enjoyed shooting the VP9 and some others. It would be nice to have another option that isn't a Glock and Sig.

I’ve never been displeased with anything H&K has produced. I believe on the whole, they are extremely reliable, live long lives and retain their value. Besides, H&K still hasn’t lived down the backward loaded magazine that some advertising firm hung around their neck, so they are bound to get everything right. Do I need another micro 9? Well, let’s talk about that for a minute. Of course I do. I need every gun I buy. Come on man!
