They have updated their website. There are a few new pics on the home page that show some great detail of the new gun.
Here are the full specs:
Looks like its gonna be kinda hefty weighing in at 14 oz, but shooting .45 ACP thats not really a bad thing. Its also not going to be a deal breaker as far as pocket carry is concerned. I have carried pocket guns that weighed in at around 14oz and I've carried pocket guns that weigh in at 6.5 oz. At a certain point, you start to see diminishing returns as far as weight is concerned. Yes, its always nice to have a super light pocket gun, but at 14 oz, as long as you are carrying in a quality holster, its still gonna be a really nice gun to pocket carry. The biggest things this gun has going for it are the length and width. Those are, IMO, the biggest deal breakers with guns in this weight class. Compare with the specs of the Kel-Tec P3AT (below), and you are looking at a gun that has the potential to be successful if it is reliable and if it is priced right. They will be available in early 2012.
