I guess I have an older one.  It was bought as just a standard mil spec goverment model.  It has some work done to it, not a great deal.  

Went and shot it today.  This pistol has some great potential.  Never fte, ftf, no stove pipes, no nothing.  I shot everything from Hyda Shoks, FMJ (several manufactures), Glaser Safety Slugs (old ones), it gobbled everything up.  This pistol is going to be a shooter!

I guess there are some good ones and some bad ones, just like women and cars.
