It seems they are now being imported as the K100 and appear to be slightly different, in the grips, from the GP6.  The Grand Power catalogue lists three variations of the K100.  I do not own one, but from what I have read, they are good pistols.

The interesting thing about this one is that it is totally ambi -mag release,safety and slide stop, checked out some videos online of people shooting and reviewing this pistol.  Its one that I might be interested in buying if the price drops a bit. Brian / EFR

decided to pick one up, first thing i noticed when shooting it for some reason for a polymer pistol does not have as much kick/muzzle climb as compared to other polymer pistols im familiar with, maybe it has something to do with its rotating barrel.  some pics and range  results first time out

Pretty nice shooting -how rounds have you put through it so far?  And second question -do you think sights are a little off or is it you just getting used to the trigger feel? I am seriously considering this pistols as another option for left handed students' may just have to get one for myself a compact model.

thanks brian, rounds...roughly about 80 rounds to this date.  judging by my point of aim at 6 oclock could be the sights, but the ammo im shooting are reloads and seems a little hotter than usual.  i will buy some factory rounds and see how they compare.  forget to mention i does come with one extra front sight post, might try that later.  and manual indicates to adjust rear sight for windage loosen screw and adjust, but i will just try some rounds first before i mess with the rear sight.

estimating about 4.5-5lb.  the reset has a nice short positive and noticeable click then right after there is absolute no take up whatsoever before you pull the trigger, great trigger

that is pretty cool barrel lock up. i want one, but i like the sarsilmas usp clone also.

went to the range to finally try some factory rounds to determine if need to adjust sights, and i do need to adjust rear sight.  some pics
shot #1 is how i usually shoot firm grip, then shot #2 top decided to really give it pretty much all i got in terms of a firm tight grip hold

then at 15y, how i usually shoot but changed my point of aim as pictured

adjusted the rear sight, and pretty much where i want it   target distance at 35', 
Grand Power knows how to make some fine pistols, wish century arms could import more variety of the GP pistol line, maybe someday

Reading this thread, and looking at the pics, makes me want one as well. (And the wish list just keeps getting longer....) 

BTW - anybody know any other online dealers besides JGSales selling the K-100? I'm not saying I wouldn't buy from JGS, I would just like a choice between more than one dealer for price comparison.
