    That's a matter of preference but imo worse. Completely mat finish with no shine at all and the copper is a weird colour. Looks like a military pistol finish.

    Wasn't expecting it to have a shine to the surface, looks as I expected it to.

    We always order stock for inventory.
    Problem is, due to the popularity of the Xtreme line and delays on delivery by Tanfoglio; that extra inventory we order is spoken for before their shipments arrived.
    Someday, we hope to catch up and actually be able to say "We have that on the shelf, how many do you want today?" Very much like we do with the STI line now.

    I'll see if I can get a better shot in a bit (it's Xmas eve). From what I can tell from your shot it looks exactly the same except for the black grips (which I prefer personally).

    Sorry but it looks completely different. I've held the new one. It's just my personal opinion and preference. Some will undoubtedly like and prefer the new finish. I bought and use the solid brass grips not for looks but for the added weight they afford. Although I do kinda like the pimping look too. Lol.

    Looks more like a dark desert sand than a copper. As I said some would definitely prefer the look but it's certainly not what was originally advertised.
