It's a DA3011F - but surely without that you'd know if you've used one ;)

Thanks mate :)

I went and tried one out.

I found that the inability to move the side handle angle was a no go for me.

Shame though, it was soooo smooth and quiet. That long trigger was nice too.

What do you use it for?

Appears to be online only. I stopped by the store today to check it out and it was not a stock item. I want to see this thing.
