We’re at IWA in Nuremburg, Germany. European arms expos are quite nice. In the evenings you have more options for food, lodging, fresh air, etc… At some point Americans might realize that going to Europe in the off-season is cheaper and more interesting than going to Disneyland or Vegas but that’s our secret for now. Plus in Europe they love Americans and don’t treat you like a moneybag to be turned upside-down and shaken.
Disneyland and now Vegas just nickel-and-dimes you for everything. In Europe everyone in the service industry takes their job seriously and wants you to have the most comfortable and enjoyable experience possible. Plus you can smoke right outside and there’s not a Karen in Europe who will freak out on you if you smoke in the outdoor cafe or dinner areas. Wafts of cigarette smoke are part of the European outdoor dinner ambience.
I had never heard of the Turkish arms company Huglue but they had this interesting Mohac AR-style 9mm pistol at their booth. If you look closely, there is no front pin on the lower receiver. Instead, in order to make the pistol as short as possible (and probably make 9mm more reliable), they have a hook on the upper receiver that attaches to the front of the lower receiver. To disassemble it, you just push out the rear pin and the upper receiver tilts forward then comes right off. Is this a common way of doing AR-9mm and I’m just out of the loop on this?
Overall I was impressed with the design as well as the fit and finish of this pistol. It seemed well built and there was very little play between the parts. I would love to take this to the range to see what it could do.
