Wanted one of these for years but always held back from buying it. Always managed to talk myself out of it saying I couldnt justify it. Finally said [bleep] it and bought one.

Very nice! A bit large/heavy and limited capacity for a carry gun for me, but a real sweet shooter with an incredible trigger. I really like mine.

I found this video very useful for field stripping.

Ive got the standard version, it's a soft shooter and is far more accurate than any 9mm my son and I own. It's a lot different than the Swiss or German versions but is more suited for us accustomed to a 1911. Dang thing feeds any ammo without a bobble. I stick to standard velocity loads, the captive spring is really soft.

I lived in Switzerland for a year in the early 90's and had the opportunity to shoot my boss's military 210. He was a Captain in the Army, artillery if I remember correctly. It was a very accurate pistol and easy to shoot well. One of the best pistol triggers I've been exposed to. I can't justify the cost of an original one but I'll have one of these new ones if my eyesight holds out. Looks like I'll need a set of those Houge grips too.

About 35 years ago, I got to shoot a standard 210 at the shooting range I was working at. A customer had one, and he graciously let me shoot a couple of magazines thru it. It was certainly an eye-opening experience. I had a great shooting High Power at the time, and some other 9mms, and that 210 left them all in the dust, so to speak. That I remember it so clearly says a lot about it, I reckon.
My HP and an old 1944 Radom P-35 have been the most accurate 9mms I've ever owned, but that 210 was a good deal better.

The owner was a lawyer or accountant or something professional, most of us "normal" folk sure couldn't afford one of the 210s at that time. They were $1500+ in 1990 dollars, really pricey.
In those days, I was a good enough shot that I could really appreciate it's quality, nowadays, between arthritis and worsening eyesight, I don't think I could do one justice. I'd love to own one, especially at today's prices, but it wouldn't be a wise investment.

I have only shot the originals, I have yet to shoot the new US made version. They look absolutely fantastic. That safety is a work of art. Congratulations!!

I’ve been wanting one of these since they first came out. We’d surely like a range report once you get it. Congratulations!

Mine is the fixed sight version, but sure is a sweet pistol.

Sometimes, "because" is a good enough reason. Sometimes, you just want something really, really nice and good.

At my age, it ain’t getting better. Im going to enjoy mine while I’m able. It’s by far the softest shooting 9mm I’ve ever experienced in addition to being super easy to rack the slide.

Congratulations, that is a great pistol.

Dood, that's like 90% of my guns. I have a couple of "business guns", but the rest are for the pure enjoyment of owning and shooting guns I find interesting. Which mostly means, old guns.

90% is a good percentage. Too many are so focused on the serious purposes of guns and forget that they can also be FUN! I worked at a "tactical" gunshop for years and hardly any other employees had any fun guns, just a few of us oldtimers.
