A well made gun on a novel operating system.
It is a DA/SA action with no mechanical decocker, similar to CZ75.
The slant of the grip makes them finicky feeders, best figure on roundnose bullets. You might get lucky with an ogival hollowpoint but don't bet on it. Think Luger.
Yes, no, maybe depending on what you will use it FOR.0 -
I would definitely buy it at that price. They were imported for only a short time during the 80's. Never were popular, as compared to other imports for the reasons HC mentioned. The one I had shot OK, it was just way different as compared to other pistols that were available then. I'm sure it will become a very desirable collectors item for no other reason that Benelli made it in limited quantities, and it used the same delayed blowback mechanism as their shotguns. 0 -
Depends on condition, above 90% yes, 90-80% only if you like it. 0 -

Great gun. Buy it.
I had the chance to shoot a target version of it {Sport} many, many years ago. It was surprisingly accurate. Only down side is you can not "limp wrist" them. They need you to hold on for the recoil system to work.0 -
Neat pistols but a bit tricky to take down and reassemble property. I owned the target model and found it very pleasant to shoot. Keep in mind that these pistols have been out of production for over 20 years so if there are problems you are on your own. 0
