It was released about a year ago, and just recently also made available in a left-handed version &mdash; which I have been eagerly awaiting. The Remus is designed to be a more general-purpose and carry-suited pistol in contrast to the competition focus of the original Alien. It adds a manual safety, system for racking the slide with the optic while having a 0.8&#8243; shorter barrel and weighing 25% less. The optics mounting options now include the Aimpoint COA, which I am also a big fan of.<\/p>\n<p>Disclosure: Laugo gave me this pistol, so you will have to judge for yourself if I am being bought or if I genuinely believe this pistol is as good as I say.<br \/>\n<!--more--><\/p>\n<p>My Mucha-inspired grips are available here:<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/redirect?event=video_description&#038;redir_token=QUFFLUhqazFxcTI2RzlLODdabGJfbDJ0cVZ0eHRoRm9PQXxBQ3Jtc0trVm5OWFR5dFBsSG90d0dVTTgwUjVheGpnYm9PV1dsT3FxNHNRTUlmNzhieHY3MzJXcFp4SzgtM3VCWTNaek5HS2VBMlpYRi12WHU4TUEtRWtTRnJRbTNhN1c0blp1czl2WUE1S3paTE91ZllEREdCRQ&#038;q=https%3A%2F%2Fgungrips.org%2Fspecial-projects%2Fforgotten-weapons%2F&#038;v=QvpwU3v8xNM\" target=\"_blank\">https:\/\/gungrips.org\/special-projects&#8230;<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Some additional related videos:<br \/>\nAimpoint COA:    \u2022 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=EkFQNELaQp0\" target=\"_blank\">Aimpoint&#8217;s New COA: Clever Optics Advancement<\/a><br \/>\nOriginal Alien:    \u2022 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=rbGCL3iRm2Y\" target=\"_blank\">Laugo Alien: Real Innovation in Modern Han&#8230;<\/a><br \/>\nAlien mud test:    \u2022 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=D_o47KAlgp4\" target=\"_blank\">Laugo Alien: Mud Test<\/a><br \/>\nAlien dust test:    \u2022 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=wKk0tluqio4\" target=\"_blank\">Laugo Alien: Sand Test (feat.
