Fun stuff! Never heard of a cast iron frame in a auto pistol! I imagine with all that weight the felt recoil is very light. How does it shoot? Thanks for the post. Bob

I don't need that...)

Heh...Just cleaning the frame innards...and noticed that the magazine release (at the bottom of the grip) is the 'stirrup' type...Like the M1911 trigger...Fully encircles the magazine...
I guess Browning patented the button magazine release... ![]() (The finish is a nice brown patina...)
