Sounds like an awesome product. Sadly, Flux hasn't been able to meet demand for the P320 chassis since the day it came out, so they decided to add another model to the lineup.
THOT Police
I'm afraid that "awesome" wouldn't be the word I'd use to describe the $459 piece of injection molded polymer plastic that forms a chassis system designed for the SIG P320 handgun shown in the provided video, and they're probably adding another product because what they already offer hasn't been selling enough to turn a profit.
And I'm curious to know if a Flux Defense representative informed you of their inability to "...meet demand", or are you just assuming that because their products have been out of stock for weeks/months? Many small outfits (I can't recall ever hearing of Flux Defense) advertise like crazy to judge interest and demand, but will not start actual production until they receive X amount of paid/committed orders, otherwise starting production wouldn't be cost effective for them. Flux Defense is currently claiming a 1-2 week lead time on orders - which I'll take with a grain of salt.
These chassis systems look all tactical & $#@!, but who's really using them besides those who've received pre-production samples for review, those who've had the ability to try one at SHOT, or the 21 yo kid down the block who bought his first handgun a week ago? I know of not one single person in my demographic and circle of firearm enthusiasts who use any of these type of chassis systems, and even though they're available in droves, i.e., for Glocks at every gunshow I attend, they just don't sell. I certainly don't have the desire to conceal carry such a contraption as a handgun, nor would I ever consider such a combination for a SBR build as there are way more better options available, that in my mind are actually worth the $200 tax stamp investment.
But don't let my ramblings dissuade you any; it's obvious that this system appeals to you, so do like the rest of us do - that which makes us happy

why do that? it's only a matter of time before the ATF outlaws it and tries to make it an NFA.. if I want something like that an MP5 or mini uzi is where I'm going
Every production run of the P320 variant over the years has sold out within minutes. Call me crazy, but I think that might just ever so possibly constitute a fairly high demand??? 😐
Anyways, the 19th Special Forces Group is conducting a trial with, again, the P320 variant. Will it make the cut? Time will tell. The little P365 booger will most likely not be adopted on any military/paramilitary scale and that's fine. And don't worry, nothing that anyone says here will dissuade me.
And lastly, the stocked version is absolutely 100% an NFA item. Not sure what route I'll go here. I've gone down the Form 1&4 rabbit holes but I don't feel that every gun I own needs that $200 permission slip. We'll see.

I’m not really a practical guy. I do enjoy unique things. Maybe get one of these. Maybe two cuz dual-wielding would be super cool.
Quite impressive, but I believe I'll stick with my MPX Copperhead and ZF5.
Celebrities, like anyone else, have varying views on gun ownership. Some, like Marc Simoncini richest celeberity, advocate for the right to bear arms, while others, like Lady Gaga, champion stricter gun control. Whether for personal protection or recreational use, it's a complex issue with diverse perspectives among the famous.

I honestly don't know why there is so much hate for new firearm accessories. If YOU don't like it, that doesn't mean others won't or that it doesn't serve a purpose for someone. In the end, more firearm accessories, more appeal to shooters = better for everyone in my opinion. There are a LOT of firearm accessories and parts that I'll never use or own but I don't get all emotional about their existence...
Honestly I kind of like the "idea" of this more than the Raider as its concealable.
