Solid points.
Here is something a lot of people don't realize - the bullet that the 5.7x28 cartridge fires is actually a 5.56mm round. So even though ammo is expensive as hell, if you reload, you can load virtually any 22 caliber bullet into this case. The bullet may exhibit very different characteristics because of the lower velocity, but for simple plinking, it can be done.
As for the gun itself, the idea behind it is cool, but holding one it just feels so damn cheap - the entire thing is encased in polymer. I know polymer is very weather resistant, but I just don't want to spend 1911-money for a huge hunk of plastic.
Just buy a P90s. Shoots the same round but a lot faster.

Probably sold it to someone willing to pay three times what you were.
