All I've hear regarding price is "expensive". That's a pretty vague term. What's expensive to one is a pittance to another.
Even though there are the hyped up "power" claims, it's interesting. Certainly wouldn't put a down payment w/o information about performance/reliability in the field and a price figure. Don
I have been following this one as well. I was told more details (i.e msrp and actually availability for both gun and ammo) will be available within the next 2 weeks.
Thinking about the 7.5mm, I wish someone made a decent quality modern pistol for the 7.62x25mm. I would snap one up in a heartbeat. At least there is ammo available.
Norinco CF-98 is kinda-sorta okay if you think that CZ-52 is too old. Rotating barrel, like on any version of QSZ-92. But importation may be a problem. They supposedly make a yet another derivative too, QX4, which is scaled up to take .45 ACP, and then re-chambered back to 7.62x25 Tokarev. That one might be a fantasy though.
Edit: Norinco also sell something called "Dominion Arms P762" in Canada, which looks a bit like SiG P226, but in 7.62x25. Unfortunately, not available in U.S.
Interesting, I like to play with bottleneck pistol cartridges. I'd be interested in handloading 9x25 necked to .32 before this I think, maybe not. A barrel could probably be made for a Glock 20 for $300 or so I'd guess. Brass is easy enough to come by (9x25). I'm guessing this round would work in Glock 10mm mags. Maybe 40 Super necked to a true .357 for use with 357 mag bullets? Hope this makes it either way, more options are better than less always.

The CZ-52 firing pin is made out of cast steel with poor heat treating. The stress of dry firing them work hardens the pins pretty quickly resulting in the nipple on the end breaking off. There are modern replacement firing pins that don't have that problem. I will replace the firing pin in mine eventually, but in the meantime I just don't dry fire it.

Good info thank you. My interest is in the 52 is rekindled for sure.
Yes that Delta is a neat gun. I got to hold one. As you say, the high quality is evident, but it definitely has a unique look and feel. If I had more disposable income, it would be on the want list.
I would love to try the Lehigh Defense Xtreme Penetrator bullet out of a hot 7.62x25 load. I bet that would be an absolutely devastating round. Too bad they don't make this bullet in the correct diameter.
I hope it is reasonably priced and successful. If it is, ammo costs should come down, and other manufacturers might get into the market.
Setting up to make this some kind of "exclusive" handgun, will most likely accomplish just that, as they will go out of business.
Then you and your friends will have a rare gun, with no parts or ammo available.
Interesting...definitely out of my price range though...
Did anyone else notice the fold out shoulder stock that is mentioned at the bottom of their web page? Seems a bit gimmicky, but might be effective I suppose.
I don't know there's plenty of market for African game calibers, and many of those guns if not most are 2K+
