The model BS is a normal, second Model B, except with the addition of a magazine safety, made for individuals, locales and agencies which require one. It was produced from 1957 to the end of classic series production in 1983. The Second Model B In 1931, production shifted entirely to this updated version which added several, mostly external,features to make the pistol look and handle more like the Colt 1911A1. The frame was changed to provide an arched backstrap and a larger safety as well as more rugged and higher-visibility sights were fitted. Numerous small changes were implemented across the design, from a shortening of the barrel bushing, to elimination of the separate safety guide bar. Large numbers of these guns were produced. The image at the top of the page is a typical european commercial model with wood stocks and blue finish. Many variations of finish, stocks and sights were produced. This basic model B remained in production continuously until 1983, a 52 year production run, replaced then with the very similiar Super series.
