Shay: It would be impossible for some of these guns to have been in use since the earlier 70s since the design of the gun wasn't introduced by FN until 1981 (MkII slides). If the guns are using MkIII frames, then the earliest these frames could have been introduced into Israeli service is 1988 or 89.

As for usage, the AIM I bought has its original barrel with matching serial number and lands and grooves on it are sharper than those on my KKM match barrel with 3,000+ rounds through it.


Skorzeny - My thoughts exactly. I can see what looks like the black enamel underneath the coating on mine - so it should come off. I am just racking my brain trying to figure out WHY they did that.
