    Good review - post another after shooting to show the results.

    One note of safety: ALWAYS inspect a firearm immediately after removing from the container to insure it is unloaded! This was driven home to me when a friend working in a gun store pulled a brand new S&W from the factory and found it had two rounds in it!!

    Shot both mags through it yesterday after work. Functioned flawlessly. Accuracy will take some getting used to with those awful sights. Definitely a 7yd or less gun right now. I am used to getting high grip with striker fired guns and having to hold this one so far down the grip due to the frame beavertail felt odd. Definitely not a comfortable gun to shoot, much nicer just to hold it and admire it.

    I just received and immediately returned one to Southern Ohio Gun. The slide was cracked in the right rear in the safety relief area . Inspect your firearm before shooting.

    That was common. The updated ones got round holes milled into the corners. Mine is like that <<<

    The "rounds" (called crop circles by some) were done to remove the Guardia Civil markings, a condition of sale. Good info on the Star BM here:
