Thanks man I really appreciate the info. My e-mail is on the way.Via email. Owner is very responsive. Answered all my questions just doesn’t have what I want yet. On te 1911 forums about Bul, people talk about him and that is where they bought theirs, especially people in the southeast US. I don’t know if Bul is gaining in popularity or they just don’t import a lot. I have checked numerous gun shops across the country and all out of stock. There are a few stainless models on gun broker.
