Not sure what the new sixteen A5 weighs in at, but if it's steel capable and light.....

Hopefully I'll get to shoot one soon.....



I completely agree with this. It's the limited ammo that hold most people back.


This raises an interesting question, does ammo availability drive gauge choice or does gauge choice drive ammunition sales?

Which is the dominant factor?

My gut is it is gun use that is more dominant.
