    I carried a BM for 15 years before replacing it with a Glock 43. I liked the BM but it was very choosy about what you fed it, basically fmj's, cmj's and cast round nosed bullets worked well. Hollow points of any type I ever tried was unreliable.

    Not sure if ITAR would be an issue with regard to getting parts over to SA (there is a member here from SA who is also a member on an American forum I'm on who has managed to buy gun parts from here, as I recall), but here on the U.S. market parts are currently available again. Someone (I forget who) is making certain replacement parts (like firing pins), Wolff is making some of the springs, Triple K still is making mags, I believe (although I've heard reliability is hit or miss), and this latest batch of surplus guns includes guns which have been cannibalized for parts to sell individually.

    What holster did you use? I'm trying to find a proper holster for my BM, but it is hard to find any kind of holster-maker who has a BM or BM mold. I'm trying a DeSantis SOF-TUCK right now just to try out the tuckable IWB concept and see how I like it. It's sized for the Commander 1911 and Hi Power. Not the best fit for the BM, but serviceable, at least. Not as good as a holster made specifically for one, though.

    As for hollowpoints, I'll be going to the range soon to see how it likes the HSTs I use in my Hi Power.

    I carried it in an old leather El Paso IWB holster. Daniel's Holsters will make you an iwb Kydex holster, you will need to take the gun to them though, and wait while they make a mold. I was going to go this route but then sold the BM.

    Still have my BM as well, with it's original box. Was bought for my mother new in the late 70's by my dad. When she passed away I took it on my name. When it broke an extractor Akmal at Dave Sheer managed to sort it for me, but today it's a safe queen, and there's P07 and P09 taking up EDC and sporting duties...

    My dad still has his Star BM, in original condition, sadly he doesn't even shoot it anymore. As you said HPs did not like the BM very much but FMJs worked pretty much fine. Nice to shoot and fun too.
