Yeah, your contributions are more than welcome in any thread I start, so not a hijack in the least.
This has, luckily, turned into a decent high power thread with some good information and some beautiful pistols.
Very kind of you. Or in Yoopertalk, "youse". (Yooper = someone from the Upper Peninsula of MI).
Yes. Here's mine...
It has an aluminum frame and hard chrome finish. Yes, aluminum can be hard chromed. It just has to be nickel plated first. It has a custom extended safety, 3 dot sights, new springs and is minus the magazine disconnect safety.

So youse from Escanaba eh? :)
I asked B&T about the provenance of these Arms Unlimited pistols, since they imported them. Their answer was "a European Police Agency." They weren't more specific than that and I really didn't expect them to be......
I changed out the grips and installed a new extractor pin that was messed up when removing the extractor. Looks much better now.

I removed the damned magazine safety from my pistol now. MUCHO better.
It was a very simple process.
Removal:
- Remove the slide from the frame
- Remove the Magazine safety pin (circled in yellow below)
- Slide the trigger lever away from the ejection side and push back a smidge
- Pop out the mag safety button and spring that gets depressed when inserting a mag (You'll see it at the front of the magwell sticking out.)

Assembly:
- Slide the trigger lever back into place
- Re-insert the magazine safety pin for aesthetics, or leave it out
- Put the slide back on the frame
Done.
