Never seen one in the 'flesh' but it looks to be a well made pistol, which makes me wonder why these aren't that popular on the international circuit. Is it the price?
Thanks.

Price may be a big factor; they're ~$2300US and only a couple of dealers in the country for support.

A great gun. It is pricy, but the gun is certainly comparable to a 208s.
But, the factory grip is the least-comfortable factory grip I've ever used. Rink or Nill grips are an essential upgrade.

Thanks for the replies. It's certainly good to know that it is considered as good as the legendary 208s.
Scott, what part/s of the grip were you not comfortable with?

in europe the aw 93 is popular. you easily get service at national championships. For me the grip is fine. High price is due to exchange
rate of the euro.
