I wonder how many Elite/ Elite Premiums are being carried now?

I'm thinking, 23 Elites and 7 Elite Premiums.   ;D    ;D

We only live once.  Enjoy the pistol and let it do what it was meant to.  Be thrilled that you have the honor of being the one to use it.

Well I guess there will be two idiots out there carrying the "grey frames" then....! How many of those were there? Were the first batch up too 147 grey?

Thanks for all the input guys. I will probably only carry it when in "uppety dress mode" for dress shirts "print" to bad when carrying a P7M8. Speaking of that, which is kind of related, I bought a factory nickel M8 from a guy locally about a year ago that didn't have its box or papers...Sooo...guess what...carry that rarity as well!.....only 200 P7M8s in that config.

Just hope no one ever causes me to "shoot the stupid" out of them while carrying one of these.

Enigma:

I just noticed your "poll." My recommendation is to carry your "classic" R9 No. 143. I've been carrying No. 132 practically every day since May 2004. It shows no signs of wear other than what might be called "a slight patina of use." The most recent photo I have of it was taken last May and shows it with the OD aluminum grips it usually wears. I carry it in the right front pocket. I have a seamstress deepen that pocket on every pair of pants/slacks/BDUs I buy, and I carry nothing in the pocket but the holstered pistol. That still permits me to carry a primary weapon when wanted (usually my P7, belted or IWB at the "4:00 o'clock" position).

Now if I can just get Matt to send me a bloody pocket holster for it.
