ALL Black R9
« on: February 21, 2011, 07:25:45 PM »
Love my Stealth.  Would love it more if it was totally blacked out.  Any chance we'll see an R9 Midnight version anytime soon?

If you already have a Stealth, it may be less expensive to have it refinished as opposed to buying a new one.

Wilson Combat - Armor Tuff
AP&W - Black Chrome

It's just a thought.

It's not about the money.  I could never part with my Stealth so the Midnight or Covert Invisible would be a sibling.

Since I started this thread I've been hearing the siren song of this bad boy.  Would love to order a custom with a naked slide.  Totally different animal I know, but dang, black is sexy.

I do like 'em shiny as well; something about stainless or chrome.    :D

I have two chrome R9s. I like the all silver look. I did not like the two tone.

I just puchased another R9 and may go all black with this one. Who knows I cannot make up my mind. :D

If a all black one is wanted get a 2 tone and then send it Bill Wilson.  Tom

na, we want a "karl" version, direct from the factory.   :P

and now that they're making black mags, that pretty much only leaves the barrel and mag release, doesn't it?

Also the hammer, ejector, and extractor.  Still quite a bit of white on the gun.  After seeing the price of the Covert, I think I'm going to wish for something else.
