Identify this handgun

Found this weird looking handgun listed for sale. The seller referred to it as a "Glock style 9mm". It is clearly not a Glock, looks like a Saturday night special POS to me.
Anybody know what this is?

I got a call one day to where a gun had been found. My buddies from nightshift had chased a guy back behind some apartments where the gun was found. Im pretty sure it was just like that one. I think the serial number plate is inside the weapon. It is a real good drop gun because you dont have to file any numbers away, all you have to do is pop off the plate and unless you take the gun apart you cant tell what or if there are any serial numbers on it. I liked the gun, never shot it, Im sure its in a detectives private collection by now though.

It looks similar to a Keltec P-11 (http://www.kel-tec-cnc.com/p11.htm), except for the trigger guard.

Standard Arms 9mm (note the SA on the grip)
I believe SA was the company founded by Jim Waldorf after Lorcin.

It is a stylized lower-case "s" slightly overlapping an "a"
There is one on gunbroker (with many photos) right now;

BTW: Note that the serial number is not on a removable plate, it is part of the frame...like on a Kel-Tec.

That auction repeats endlessly...no one is buying it at $325!
The SA-9 sold for $138 new.

with that safety, probably a SNS, but might be a little better than the zinc ones, maybe, maybe not, but it looks like a polymer frame?

I know, it was sarcasm.

Ha looks like the person used the same picture and edited out the tag. I was wondering what that white string was. Looked like junk, just had never seen it before. The dude wants $325 for it!!
see here for the ad I saw:

Hey Ithaca, where you from? I am buying a Uncle Henry's gun tomorrow...
It is a Taurus Style 4" .357 I am buying though, not that one. Cute little ugly gun though...

mcdonl, I just came across the ad in the uncle henry's for this gun as well. When I saw it, my first thought was, "hey, I just saw that same gun on a THR thread." The link is here...
