[QUOTE="Dumpstick, post: 3080509, member: 41653"] I purchased one of those BM sets. Came in the factory translucent plastic box, 2 mags, Spanish language instruction booklet, cleaning rod. By the time shipping and transfer is figured in, I've got about $250 in it also. The right side of the slide, and receiver too, have a pea-sized circle milled into the steel. Apparently some sort of ID Mark was removed. No big deal. The new serial number marked in it is seriously ugly, but doesn't interfere with operations. Besides, I can't see it from the firing position. I ran about 100 rounds through mine right after purchase. I did strip it too inspect, but didn't clean it. Before shooting it again, I'll clean it. Trigger was gritty, but broke clean. Accuracy was so-so, but that was probably me - I was in a hurry. It's very similar to my Astra A-70, but slightly larger. The BM is 8+1, the A-70 is 7+1. I like them both. [/QUOTE]
