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

I always wanted a P5. This was after much research into autoloaders and how the P5 compared with others. Well, I never got a P5. Then, I sorta began a period where I didn't need a firearm. But, I got married, bought a house and had children. One day we had a little 'incident'. My wife said "get a gun".

I did the research again and found out about the P99. It had all the features I wanted, viz. a modern firearm, reliable, accurate, SA and DA and it felt great in my hand. That's what I went with and I'm happy with it.
