I've had a three of these over the years. Sold one after getting a better one twice. The one I kept has the shipper and I bought it from our old friend "flatgate" way back in 2005. I gave him $3K for it then, but I couldn't afford it all at once, so I gave him a $1K check and he let me take the gun with the promise that I would send him the rest later, which I did.

The sticker on the box says "C-H-R-O-M-E" and the shipper also says CHROME on the side. But the invoice copy lists this batch as Nickel.

My son was with me on that trip and he took this pic of me holding the gun, standing next to Carl "flatgate" in his basement. We had been in Colorado for a week prior and got sunburned.
