Your close inspection fit my superficial one. Looked rough but fit seemed good. I did not get to try the trigger due to tie straps.

Same oppinion. Rough finish, both look & feel.
Not what I expected really.
Enjoyed our visit Stroo. :lol:
Hey LT, did they seem worn out or just bad finish?
My take was just poor finish. I only handled one. Tied so didnot rack the slide. Fit seemed good enough for the price except for the finish. The were nothing like the pics in the review I read.

I take Guns & ammo, American Handgunner, & American Rifleman.
JLaw sends me his well read Combat Handgun. (Thanks again friend). :thumbsup: I dont remember which one had the article but there was a really good one on the Argentine Sistema. It was a good review. I would not run from them as a starter or a project gun. Probably want to shoot it several hundred rds before carrying.
