FYI, Gang,
     Buds has the new R51 Smoke in stock for $311.00. Says they have 5 left.
Shipping is free to an FFL.  Think  I will get one just to have a set.
One black, one smoke.

Funflyer,
there is only 1 of me, so I guess Smokey would work?

Thanks Blackie for the update on Smoke's. And uh.....yeah, would Smokie work?

Can't wait to see the smoke and bone grip combination.

Bud's agreed to my offer, Swap a NIB Ruger SR1911  for the R51 Smoke.
Will also contact Keefer for the bone grips.   Photos after I receive the firearm.
Whoopee!
Blackie

BTW, I had several  SR1911s NIB after Pookie got elected the second time.

Cheap as Dirt just let me know that they now have them a well.
$317, I think it was.

But too late for me, the second one is black as well.

I wonder if they would work a swap with you like Bud's did for Blackie. If your second one could still be described as new in box, they might. That is if you want to part with you black one.

R51,
     I took a hit  on the trade, but I had 6 SR1911s I bought after Pookie got elected the second time.
I am getting ready to order the bone grips from Keefer.   Then I will have a killer looking R51.

Would like to see some pics when you get done!

R51 Fan,
     It has been my experience that most gun stores, once the gun goes out the door, it is considered used.
Worth a try though.   Bud's is usually pretty reasonable. Never bought anything from
CTD.
