Did I mention N.I.B. Wanted a Wilson Combat, but 3 grand touched the wife off.!!!. I'm pleased with no regrets. Still got $$$ for ammo,LOL. Sherman out.
It's the exact same price likely because it's made by Armscor, likely in the same plant. The only difference is the roll mark name on the slide. Metro Arms made the Firestorm marketed by Bersa in the same manner, and prices were the same or nearly the same. They have since discontinued the Firestorm model.
