Finally something new from Marstar. Anyone know about these? They come in .45ACP, .40S&W and 9mm and go from $699 upwards.

No hotlink as per Forum rules. Just eliminate the spaces.
 
As for prices, the bog-standard ones don't look so bad ($699 for the basic 1911, less for the CZ's). It seems to me that Marstar is looking to move from low-brow cheapies (God Bless Norinco) up to the middling cost range with the Slovakian 9mm ($599) and the BUL's...plus the Western revolvers and fancier shotguns. I wonder if this business model will work for them? Now they're in the same price range as the full-service traditional shops, so the warehouse style approach that was OK for $250 to $400 guns may not work now that we're in the $600 to $800 and up class.
 
Holy jumpin' German Jesus...Only $179 for a poly chrome mag? Is that quite enough?:eek: As much as I like the look of them(the pistols) I'll just stick to my 1911's and Norc's thanks..I can only wonder what parts are worth..I guess somebody's gotta pay for the Gaza/West Bank...Yikes..

Ya, the top end mags are pricy, but the standard mags are pretty reasonable.
 
Interesting...

What is the backgroud of Bul? Have they seen any combat? like to have more info about them. I've read the info on their web site. Looks like a small but professional company. ISO certified can't hurt.

Also, the Cherokee line looks cool, will Mastar cary this line to ?


Bravo Marstar

BUL makes the frame for the Kimber if I remember correctly.

I though they kind of looked like the Kimber's,

Has any one used them yet? I like the idea of the 9mm 1911.

Please post your reviews, as you get them.
 
Nice 1911's, I would consider buying one...of course I'm not "hardcore" like some :rolleyes: (we won't name any names) So long as it shoots, and I can have fun with it, thats all I care...

I have fired the Bul M5 a couple of times. From what I can see it is a quality pistol. $699 is very cheap for that pistol IMHO.
 
Question for you guys:

When they say "Hi cap frame" are they trying to say that it uses double stag magazines as opposed to single stack?
