You're 100% correct..... this new "chrome" version is the one they should have done to begin with. Thanks for posting the link!

Biskit!!! Good to see you back here! I bought alot of the small replica Graflex pieces from you when you decided to stop making replicas. Was that about 20 years ago now??? Still have most all of it, too! - Jim

Jamesfett, Any progress on your Bubo re-paint? Just curious. - Jim

I have never understood why all of that money is spent on going to Mars!?!?! Looks like a bunch of Georgia red clay... with no oxygen,

Wow! Very nice! Here's a picture of my Webley dated 1916 that I got back in 2002...
