Yes, I am not sure which one I want. I orders mounts for it as well so I can throw a scope on it. I was hoping it would be a good long range shooter.

If given a choice, I'd get the blued (hey I already did..)

I have a stainless coming, should be here today, I have an Investarms hawken I want to put it on. I don't know how it will look with the brass hardware but we will see.

dphobby... that was my thoughts also. While the blue would look excellent, for the little extra, the stainless is nicer to maintain. So the question is do I want which one. Maybe I will wait until you get yours and then you can shoot a picture of it...

Little brown truck came !!! I have to cut off the under rib about 1/8" to fit the investarms stock but no big deal.










A little hard to see with the reflections but you can get the idea

Dave - GM site has a stainless one on a Hawken. You might get an idea from that.

maybe I will get both.. then I don't have to decide. That stainless looks really sharp. I could put a scope on that and really see if a .45 can do some long range stuff.

Know what would look really cool and I am thinking about it. Taking all the brass from a Hawken to a plating shop and having it either nickel plated and sand blasted or zinc plated and then putting a stainless barrel on it.
Call me old fashion, and no offense dp, but I think the blue and brass go better together.

Bronco

Changing the brass out to zinc, dull nickel migth really enhance the looks - sertainly would provide a new look..

I put my stainless GM_LRH in a Renegade stock for that very reason. But I have to admit I am a plain jane type person...
