Blue Grips Farmie on GB $899

[BlueC2]

Looks like a good collector gun. 5 rounds through it, all manuals. Great Price for an early gun.

No relation.

I didn't see any indication of the serial number series of this pup.  Nor any good pictures to see what the slide says, ie R9, R9s, etc...

I requested the info-still waiting..

Ser#R263 according to the seller. No word if it says "Farmingdale" or "R9s" on the slide. Given the SN there is like a 99% chance it says Farmingdale. R9s is anyones guess.

Interesting....I see that it did not sell

That was a great buy for $900 with the OEM blue CFs. I just need another R9 like i need a hole in the head now. Someone with time and some patience could buy and flip or split up the grips and maybe make a couple hundred.

I truly feel that the Farmies deserve to be kept "whole"if possible.

I just love the Farmies,and if I had the cash,this one would have been bought and put away!!

Anyone interested in a Seecamp Conversion?

Hopefully this leads to a good home for this Farmie!

Yeah, that's what someone said about the one that I ended up buying off GB - it came with regular black grips.  I put the blue CF grips back on it upon its arrival, no way I was going to separate them from it. 

So did someone from here buy it?  The seller says its sold.
