Okay, follow this reasoning. An epiphany came welling out of my dusty mind today, something that should have occured to me long before. Several years back, before I bought my RAP 440, I thought it looked basically like a double action compact 1911. Well, I bought one after reading Cruffler's review and decided it was among the best made pistols I have ever owned. It has a smoother trigger than anything I have save for a Colt Trooper Mk IV and turned out to be very reliable.
Now, we all know the relationship between the Astra A-75 and the RAP pistols. Now, the Astra A-75 is basically just a double action version of the A-70, right? Well, looking at the Star BM's, I have just realized that the Astra A-70 is really just a modernized BM. Now, if it is just a modernized BM, then really, the A-75 can be called the same thing. And, with that, the RAP 440 is, for all practical purposes, an updated and modernized Star BM.
Now, that is akin to saying the Beretta 92 is, for all practical purposes, a modernized P-38, but, well, it's the truth, ain't it?
