"Special Forces R-9– Hogue Executive G-10 grips with checkering, titanium coated barrel, and all visible parts (interior and exterior of gun) are finished in black with Wilson Combat’s proprietary ArmorTuff finish. Even the magazines are black! Very neat looking gun. Even when you open the slide and peer down the ejection port – everything is black! MSRP $1,795."
This was from a 2009 post.
So, $1825.00 - $1900.00 today, (with some finish upgrades since then) is not really that bad of price, is it ...
Or... you can talk me out of it.
