Pezco Posted July 6, 2010 Share Posted July 6, 2010 It looks interesting! If it is built in Israel it is likely to be well made. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slemmo Posted July 6, 2010 Share Posted July 6, 2010 The IPSC model was quite popular in Norway, but lately they have been hard to get since there's no distributor here anymore, there are still a few running and I'm very happy with mine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canuck223 Posted July 6, 2010 Share Posted July 6, 2010 Marstar have seemed to have difficulty keeping them in stock. The popular models seem to sell out quickly. The cheaper mags are perpetually out of stock. The only real complaint I've heard from an owner was a damaged mag catch recess. I'm not certain if this was due to over eagre home gunsmithing by someone unfamiliar with the system, or a genuine flaw. At 1/3 the cost of an STI, it's an attractive option for the guy just getting into Standard Div. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flatland Shooter Posted July 6, 2010 Share Posted July 6, 2010 Any distributors in the U.S.? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Team Amish 1 Posted July 6, 2010 Share Posted July 6, 2010 Charles Daly sold the BUL doublestackers but I think CD closed their doors. I checked their website and it says "under construction". There is a Charles Daly forum on the net if you really want to look into these guns. I think they call them Charles Daly EFS. Good luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nashvillebill Posted July 7, 2010 Share Posted July 7, 2010 (edited) I bought a heavily used, older model Bul Custom a couple of years ago for my first Limited gun. It has run great. Edited July 7, 2010 by nashvillebill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe4d Posted July 7, 2010 Share Posted July 7, 2010 The Kimber 10 was a Bul,,,, I see they have a 40 version but the magazines are still ten rounds, not sure of the IPSC rules for standard but I think a ten round limit would be a terrible handicap. Can you get a Para ordnance 16-40 in Argentina ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2alpha Posted July 7, 2010 Share Posted July 7, 2010 Do they make the trigger guard opening big enough for a man sized trigger finger yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pvhendrix Posted July 8, 2010 Share Posted July 8, 2010 I have 2 one in .40S&W and one in 9mm. I love the guns they shoot extremely well. There are some parts that are BUL specific. Mag release buttons, mainspring housings, grip safety, trigger may allow use of a Para trigger and bow. Magwell are hard to get in the USA. To my knowledge no one imports them into the USA any longer...a real shame! They can be made to use BUL or STI mags with one button and Para mags with another button. Mine are set to use BUL/STI mags. The gun fits my hand very much like a Browning Hi-power. Very pleasant to shoot! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nueces5 Posted July 8, 2010 Author Share Posted July 8, 2010 Thanks to all! I check the replacement parts first! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RePete Posted July 8, 2010 Share Posted July 8, 2010 I shot a Bul when Marstar first got them. They are accurate and comfortable to shoot BUT the slot in the backstrap for the grip safety is too wide and the web of my hand got pinched every shot. As canuck223 says hard to keep in stock but they haven't had the popular models in stock for over 3 years. Mag availability is also a proplem.

sps Posted July 14, 2010 Share Posted July 14, 2010 Hi everyone, I saw this pistol (BUL M-5 IPSC). http://www.marstar.ca/gf-BUL/index-M5.shtm Actually I shoot whit my G17. And I look to go standart. So..., I want to buy some but I need some first hand info. Thanks Hernan Bul has a new model called SAS. It is an STI clone. It looks very good and shoots like a dream. I shot one (here in Israel) and was very ipmressed. If i were you i would try to contact Bul here in israel and ask them where else you can find their guns outside Israel. I know their website is not up to date so this is the only way to find out what you want to know. Their number is +97236392911. ask for Haim, he is head of marketing. Hope this helps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
