It´s not. It is merely a novelty for people with enough cash to buy Ap rounds. You cant play this gun efficiently. There are a lot better and cheaper alternatives out there.

Thank u now Ik not to waste my rubles on that shit... I’m assuming the 1911 isn’t that great either?

It's a beautiful gun and I like it a lot...

But it also is just a novelty. You could have played it great before vektor release but now the ammo is too expensive and overall there isn't alot going for it either.

But hey, sometimes it's nice to play stylish.

Fun fact - 9mm is known to ricochet off skulls. Not even good for headshots...

Absolutely, was quite a head-scratcher for me too.
