A word here, about J&G and their grading of used guns. They had three grades of the BM, with the “worse” of the batch graded by J&G as in “good” condition. J&G Sales in Arizona obtained some Star BM 9mm pistols via Century Arms International that were brought into the USA from Spain some time ago. The Star is a completely different gun design from top to bottom, yet it is a solid handgun for police, military, or civilian use. However, that’s where all the similarities end. The Star BM 9mm, is of course, a 9mm chambered handgun, and the outward appearance resembles that of a 1911 Commander. But I had never owned a Star BM 9mm handgun, for some strange reason – until recently. 45 ACP pistols over the years, and wish I had kept at least one of them. I’ve long admired Star Firearms – long out of business – and the outstanding handguns that they produced. So, I settle for less - not less quality, but lesser prices. However, I simply can’t afford the price tags on either model – even the lowest priced models are out of my financial reach. I’d love to own one of each, especially since those are in original condition – not rebuilt.
My local FFL dealer recently purchased two huge gun collections, and they obtained quite a few M1 Garands and M1 Carbines in these collections. I can’t afford all of the guns I’d love to have, so I’m a habitual gun trader. Once again, everyone believes that because I’m a writer – mostly about firearms and knives, that I have a huge collection. I’m a fan of military surplus firearms, of all kinds – unfortunately, there aren’t too many in my meager gun collection.
