The '''BUL M-5''' is a [[M1911]] clone pistol made by Israeli firearms manufacturer [[BUL Transmark]]. M-5s are made in "carry" models for personal defense and "competition" models for sporting use (particularly [[International Practical Shooting Confederation|IPSC]] competitions).

Based on the M1911.45 ACP, this version is specifically designed to compensate for the 1911's heat absorption in high temperature environments with a [[polymer]] frame.

BUL also provided the polymer frame to other firearms manufacturers for production of Springfield Armory, Kimber Polymer and Charles Daly Polymer 1911 pistol lines.
