Good deal. Around here the LGS wants $429. + 7% tax for the stainless TB version. The store a few miles farther down the road had a price of $385. out the door. I pick it up Sunday!

Thanks guys for the positive reinforcement. The original finish was starting to look pretty bad, not befitting a quality firearm. I completely stripped the coating and polished the frame but it didn't look right. Originally told the coater to mask the barrel but then had a last minute change of...
