I got this rascal as part of a package deal from an estate sale yielding my sweet Ruger Security Six, a surprisingly reliable old Charter Arms AR-7 and a Remington 870 20 Ga.
Looking this over it has been fired but reliability is un known as it came with no magazines.
Seems to be a completely ridiculous example of a 9mm semi-auto pistol but what the hell...
So, to questions:
1. Magazines - I see conflicting info on magazines. Does anyone know of a reliable magazine that is available for these. Keep it or sell it, I gotta be able to shoot it and want at least three mags for it.
2. Re-sale - should I choose to sell it, what is a decent asking price for one of these. I won't sell it till it reliably functions with three magazines.
3. Operation - is there any kind of alternative to the factory top-knob for charging? I realize it needs to be low to clear the line-of-sight of the sights but it is one hell of a bear to charge with that little disc up there... awkward and potentially unsafe to boot.
Seems to 'bout cover it for now. Any answers to the above would be greatly appreciated.
