And it's got an ambi saftey and I take it that's a ceramic coating? Interesting, I think I'll look at this one a little closer. I like my Colt's..

Nice! I would guess they are doing the finish in house. Wonder how long it takes for other manufacturers to follow this path. If I lived in Nevada, I would bet $1 others will offer Ceraplate to compete and try to be a step above. This is good to see either way because parkerized finishes suck IMO. I wonder if it has a tighter slide to frame fit? I imagine it would, based on my experience with a ceramic finish.

Looks like you have more questions to answer VAMarine!!

Thanks for the heads up on what should be a great improvement to a great weapon.

Very nice.

I would like one in commander style and 9mm.

It's not blued, it's Cerakote in what they are calling "Armorers Black"




Should be out this summer.

I think I need one.

Rats! I was thinking of a different kind of rail gun.

I would love one in 10 mm to go with my old '89 DE that's for sure.

I will be starting my "Sean needs one of these" foundation. all donations are welcome.

I traded my Delta Elite to Cabelas some years ago.. One big mistake on my part..
