The VR-M marine version(.45) was a bit better than a K&B .45 but not as strong as a Picco .45 in the mid to late 80's. Then OS started that "New and improved" ABN thing and all OS's went down the drain,just one lean run could destroy the sleeve and getting parts for OS has never been an easy task........Not mentioning the cost! If its new (NIB) some collector might want it for nostalgia.
