Well, if you say so. But the later model stainless guns, particularly the C and CR serial numbered guns were generally considered the best most reliable guns. Those routinely sell at lower prices than you are asking. Yours appears to be one of those. I personally carry 2 of those and have about a half dozen of them. None of those has ever jammed and everyone is factory stock. I've had FTEs with older blued model "I" series Combat Masters, but I try not to shoot those because of the barrel construction.
