Be careful of dropping the slide on a full magazine with the safety on.

Mine would fire the first it chambered.

It arrived today. Of course once in hand I had to field strip it. No import mark and only one lone WaA on the barrel slide. It's a common French "Grey Ghost": nothing special to collectors but it will be a shooter. Bore is in great condition. I'll hold on to it for a while.
