I LIKE IT! A fly weight at under 6 lbs too. Its got a steep price tag and I can think of a few other rifles I would get were I to have that kind of gun money sitting around but I do like the concept and ... I think it looks neat.
Yet it is something I have been dreaming of for a long time. I want one as a suppressor host. They will probably end up selling a lot of them to places that give scary semi autos restrictions. Unfortunately this one is a little to pricey for my budget. I will wait for Ruger to make a lever variant of their PC carbine. Also really hoping for Ruger to bring back the 96/22 a lever action 10/22.

I like it too, especially as a suppressor host. Price is kinda steep for a 9mm but would be interesting if they made 10mm or 5.56 adaptations.
Pretty expensive for what it is. I had a lever action itch a few years ago and bought a Henry lever action .22. Unless I was super rich I wouldn't buy this, but that's just me lol.

Probably built more for foreign markets that restrict or ban semiautomatics.

Obviously they didn't collab with Kel-Tec, I see no "waffle" pattern polymer at all.
I dunno, I dig it. It is different. I will never complain about having a ton of choices. On my list of guns to purchase this year is a Henry lever so I can tacti-cool it out.
What is the point of this gun? It's not state compliant...threaded barrel and detachable mags (or you're stuck with 10 rounds mags). No one would shoot this in a PCC match, because lever actions aren't exactly fast shooters. AND it is insanely expensive.
I'd much rather have a side gate-load 357 mag with a threaded barrel, if I were looking for a novelty suppressor host.

Some foreign countries ban semiautomatic rifles but don't have many laws about other rifles.
I think they are cashing in on the growing trend of "tacticool" lever guns. With youtubers like Garand Thumb making videos about them - they have grown in popularity.

I wonder if they will make a drum magazine for it?

It's the rifle of the future at a futuristic price.

Like half of all the lever action posts on reddit come from foreigners now.

It's about fuggin time!!
For years I've been wanting to get my hands on one of those converted Rock Island Armory .22TCM bolt-actions to 9mm that Special Interest Arms used to make before the guy retired. A couple of specialty gunsmith dudes back east still turn them out, but at a trickle and you end up paying well over $1000 for one if you find it.
But this will work.
Oh wait,...I just noticed the price. PHUK THOSE GUYS!!!!!! There is no way in hell it is worth anywhere near that price.

Man, I find it hilarious that so many of you are butt-hurt about the price. You realize this monstrosity isn't the $199 dollar Rossi you bought back in 1987 right? Some of you that have no issue strokin' your chimp to a 6k dollar 1911 all the sudden hate a 2k lever action that is pretty unique in the market? lol.
In a world where someone will pay more than 600-800 bucks for a rattle trap old Marlin (Have you seen what the few year old "rare" tactical model Marlins sell for? - it is more than the POF...), or 700+ for some turkish made lever action I don't find POF's prices that ridiculous. Especially compared to what some people pay places like Mad Pig customs to build them a tactical lever.
Would I buy it for the MSRP of 2K? maybe - probably not, but they are probably priced at that to recuperate R&D and tooling and/or they will be in stores for a couple hundred less. Once they hit the ~1700ish price point I would probably buy one, why? Cause find another weird, hilarious, mag fed pistol caliber lever action that looks like it came from some retro-futuristic sci-fi.
Love it or hate it - the market for "tactical" lever actions (and other "old" firearms being modernized") is growing. POF is trying to get in that market.
