And this neat little Star Model BM, which I have also always wanted. Great little but heavy 9mm.

It points well and fits my hands far better than any Glock I have fired. The Star has been just as good although not quite as accurate.

I take most of my recent pictures of guns on my front porch when overcast but otherwise bright outside. Most of my older gun pics were taken with my old Sony Mavica 10X floppy disc camera. It had a minumum macro lense to subject distance of .250" which made excellent closeup pics of proofs etc. Parallax *Lee Enfield Collector's Society member #3* *Mauser Shooter's Association member #17* Forum administrator for the Carolina C&R Shooting & Collecting Club,

Be that as it may I can recognize a great find when I see it and I rejoice with you on finding something on your want list at such a great deal. Frankly, I wouldn't mind one of the star 9mms too. I looked at one at the gun show this past weekend and it was $4??something and like others have said $600 would be a good price on the B/9mm alone so you made out like a bandit. I second the others on the great pics. i too prefer "cloudy bright" for my picture taking. If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or your arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen. Sam Adams
