I'll pick it up tomorrow at the LGS. When I saw the price tag, I asked him if it was nickel or stainless. He said "stainless". I said "are you sure??" He said "yeah, but let me check the box". Box says "SS". I said "since I'm such a good customer and have brought you a lot of business how much can you come off the tag?". "None" he said, "I can't get any more because it was a closeout". He still took off a couple percent. Since he owed me for a gun I sold through him, he just said he'd subtract the price of the 75B from what he owes me..... and wrote out a price of $517.23. I said I'd go home and think it over, which I did (for about 2 minutes) and let him know. Called him back and said to put my name on it, and I'll come get it tomorrow. Doing the happy dance here!!! Will post photos tomorrow. Those cocobolo grip panels are sure nice. Don
