Remington - Navy Single Shot Pistols, Model 8, 81, 24, 241, RB Pistols (Types- not serial), RB Rifles- 1870, 71, RB Rifle Models- 1866-1933, Contract Lee Rifles, Pistols and Revolvers 1857-1918 (incomplete serial number for some), Rifles 1866-1933 (ditto), Shotguns 1874-1910 Serial numbers unknown. An unloaded Star BM A total of 217,682 Star BM pistols were made between 1972 and 1992. BM serial numbers ranged from 1,226,501 to somewhere around 1,982,884. The pistols were made without mechanical variation throughout that period, but there may be a lot of different cosmetic variations depending on agency issue and commercial sales. 9MM LUGER CALIBER, PISTOL RECALL: INTERARMS has learned of occasional firing pin breakage in the Star M43 FIRESTAR 9MM pistols within the limited serial number range 1,953,001 to 1,958,000 ONLY. Such breakage does not pose any direct hazard to the shooter; however, the pistol is rendered inoperable. Sajn sajn teri dulhn sjaungi mp3 song. This Star B has the serial #255598 (from the fourth variation/shipment), which was delivered on June 6, 1944 to Handave France, a town near the Franco Spanish boarder. The shipment included 8000 pistols; serial numbers 200 and 250. It’s amazing to think that this gun was in that shipment.
