    Hmmm.... It would appear that they might not be making them in chrome any more. Both the US and Philippine websites no longer list the nickle models. :dunno:
    :cheers:

    there was one

    When I left work at Bradis yesterday there was still one in the case. You will need to call the shop for pricing and if that is what you want just ask them to hold it. We will always hold a firearm for a day or two till you can get there.

    I have i luxury of owning one i 38 Super.Just a standard GI model but in nickel and of course .38 super.It truly is a great piece,Over 2,000 rounds and still running strong. I carry it everywhere,little heavy but peace of mind that your carrying a good reliable 1911 is worth the extra weight.Anyways i live in NEPA and had to order from a my dealer and had to wait a little over 2 months to get it.Not to rain on your parade but i think your going to play h*ll trying to get one.Like the above post both websites do not list them anymore.Anyway good luck and straight shootin.
