    I thought the extractor (along with slide stop and mag release) are suppose to be black. I really liked the two tone

    Le résultat est supérieur à mes attentes, et a mis fin à toutes mes interrogations sur la pertinence de la précommande que j'avais faite sur SRFC. Je suis juste impatient de l'avoir en main à présent...


    Isnt the 100 year gun supposed to be engraved on both sides? Why is yours plain?

    IIRC there were a few different versions, much like the Remington R1 and I think Colt too. I too like the engraved on both sides, and have two coming.

    I think its just the lighting washing it out on the slide. Look near the beavertail and you can see the slight engraving marks

    The pics frontier posted are not the guns we will recieve. The import version has fish scale serrations and IMHO uglier grips.

    So, out of 250 for canada, how many were engraved with wood box?

    I also have two coming, maybe I got the plain version????? God dammit, I wanted engraved with woodbox.

    I lost my job a week after I paid for mine.

    I will sell other stuff off if need be. Really wanted a centennial edition.

    I won't even rack the slide on this thing. Hope it will be a decent collectors item. Time will tell......

    Pics for anyone interested... Black extractor, not S/S.

    * note the numbering on the slide (### of 250), and the "International Edition" on the opposite side...
