OK, Picked up new BG380 today. Surprise, out of the box not a MIM barrel. 380 Auto top of barrel, and BG 380 on side of barrel. Second item, mag release seems to be made of metal, not plastic, just checked both guns are metal. 3rd trigger pull seems slightly lighter, not major difference but still some what lighter. Still pulls to rear of trigger guard but a slight improvement. Again this is the one with serial # KAK72XX.;
