I just picked this MkII Stainless up yesterday from my LGS after buying it from a friend in Tennessee. I had a MkI Standard Model in high school and college, but foolishly traded it off in the early 1980s. Its 'replacement' came with (2) mags for $329. I'm happy.

Stainless mark pistols usually start at $400, so you got a very good deal. Congrats!

The short Standard mk2 is my favorite model.

A couple of cautions about your pistol...

Verify that you have a solid firing pin stop pin. Replace the pin if it's a hollow roll pin.

Keep an eye on the back of your bolt. It's a 2-piece bolt and sometimes the ears will separate and fall off.

Enjoy your new pistol! It's a great one that will provide many years of service.
