NORM, that's a beauty, looks to be in very nice condition. We don't see many of them here in Portland, in fact I can't remember ever seeing one other than at the auction sites, a very cool purchase.

NORM,
That's an interesting pistol. Do you know how old it might be?

hey Papabear ! Carguy sent me a really neat link that is "Loaded" with old guns. I have been looking at them all and some are right in my price range.(60-250$) If I recall, I think you are a S&W fan? They have a bunch. That is where i saw the Star SM Super 380. Anyways here is that link , Enjoy, G

Norm, just to let you know I heard that grips from the Grip Guys are beautiful and durable but may need some "fitting" so be forwarned. I didn't heed my own advice and recently order a pair of Devils Fire grips for my Star BM...I'll let you know how they work out when they show up... :'(

I call Jeff on the phone I told him I wanted them without a finish on them, even my grips from Dennis there is a little fitting to make them tight and make the mags drop out easy, you know me I like to work on my stuff
