That pistol has some factory custom work done to it. That milled flat top on the slide is not normal production. Which means = $$$

I have a 5.45 Krink, but would like more pix

Looks SS.

The serial number (even the first few digits) will tell the story.

I spoke to the OP in PM and we (I) have determined that it is indeed a late model Series 70 reproduction, made sometime after 2001. I inquired about one other feature that would date it even closer, which is if there is a complete cutout or simply a hole in the frame where the slide stop catches the magazine on the last shot, but haven't heard back yet.

These are VERY nice pistols. When I saw the milled slide top and the blue box, I immediately knew this was a Custom Shop piece. Only the Custom Shop guns come in the blue cardboard box, the rest come in a dark blue plastic case.

Very purty gun.

just to clarify, I think I actually posted a pic of another national match, that I picked up.. thanks for the input guys.. It means alot.. thank you for the comments.. Please look at the new album in a few.. as of 630, they both are still available..

New album in OP

I had the opportunity to view the pistols today. They are bone-stock newer production blued S70 repros with consecutive serial #s and everything that comes with a NIB 70 repro. Hard to walk away empty-handed, but I have the Gunfighter course to fund in 10 days. Somebody else may be pretty eager to grab this consecutive set!

I wish I didn't have such a stainless fetish. I would own at least one of these.

Did someone say brown cardboard?

U got a layaway plan?

PM sent

I had the pleasure of handling both of these today and the pain of walking out the door with neither. They are gorgeous guns and the bluing is one of the sharpest I've seen. Buy with confidence from Dave he's good to go.

Sold pending exchange tomorrow,
Thank you everyone for your help and input.
It turns out this was what I remember bayoushooter being years ago, that is nice.
thanks for everything,
remember the national match pic I accidentally posted, turns out it was made near 1960.. kinda cool..
nothing special other than 3 digit serial and it might turn into an HK sometime soon..
