With the the popularity of the 007 movies and other franchises, I was wondering how many of you were turned to the P99 because of something Bond related.

I'll admit I got interest in the P99 from Die Another Day, but I bought it because of its functionality and feel in the hand. I think it'd be interesting to post another poll later to see why people bought the P99. I wonder if some people bought it because 007 has it, much like the sales of .44 Magnum revolvers went up after Dirty Harry's release

First saw it on "Tommorow Never Dies" which was it's first appearance in a James Bond movie (scene with Michelle Yeoh in her "armory"

).

Bond fondles the P99 for the first time!

After that, and the appearance in the Combat Handguns issue, I was hooked!

Well, I like to take a little credit for at least turning Ken Lunde onto the P99. AND the P7M8.
