I'd have to see these real short-barreled, recoil-operated Rem Model 11's and Browning A-5's fire a few rounds, and know what kind of rounds were being fired in them before I'd consider buying one. Otherwise I'd be afraid that the barrel weight would be too light for the gun to cycle ammunition through properly. I'm not saying they won't, I'm just saying that I'd want to see it operate before I laid any money down.
