I was going to offer one of these up for sale at cost, but after checking you can do just as good @ $268 delivered from Bud's. It's the Sarsilmaz (SAR) B6P full size, Imported by EAA. I have FINALLY made the transition into becoming a believer in polymer frames (but still favor traditional steel and alloy), and this gun is a great value for the price. It's a full-size, CZ75 based 9mm with a great fit/finish, DA/SA, 16 rnd. capacity, polished barrel and feed ramp, and the slim grip feels great. I put a hundred rounds through one out of the box and it's flawless. Reviews are great - don't let the "Made in Turkey" deter you. The ONLY drawback is the molded in "signage" on the frame could have been toned down a bit. It's an all-around nice gun for home, carry, and something to beat up that won't break the bank.
Check them out - if you want one and don't deal with Bud's let me know and I'll send one your way.

Looks like a great price on a budget 9mm, and I'd trust harly's opinion. Unfortunately, it's a no-go for me (in CT) due to magazine capacity.
I went to a bookstore and asked the saleswoman "Were is the Self Help Section?" She said if she told me, it would defeat the purpose.

My shooting range partner picked one up a few weeks back and we put 250 rounds through it w/o any issues.
My only negative was it had pretty stiff mag springs. Otherwise the ergo's were great. Nice and slim.
Supposedly a CZ 75 B clone and that's a pretty good gun to copy.

Sarsilmaz (SAR) also made the armalite pistol a few years back (discontinued after the company changed hands) these were evidently the same pistol in a steel frame.
the general consensus was that it was a great pistol but way over priced, armalite also didnt really think through how to provide warranty service for them (they were instructing owners to call turkey).
people were very pissed when armalite discontinued them.
according to articles I've read published about SAR, they overhauled their facility a few years back with state of the art CNC machines and works and are outfitted with better production tec that alot of high end manufacturers.
they also make a lot of OEM pistols and parts for european companies, they expanded their line to include a "house" brand line but have had a hell of a time finding US import avenues.
I've also heard it stated (cant confirm) that SAR started messing with CZ75 variants due to a short partnership with Tanfoglio, and that the affiliation ended badly.
all in all happy shooting, let us know how you like it.
