Nighthawk T3 stainless alternative

[user01394]

Since I can't get one of these in CA is there anything that looks similar to it. I like the stainless with the black accents on the grip and sights.

Amongst the on-roster semi-custom 1911s, the Ed Brown Kobra Carry is the only stainless steel commander I can think of.

If you're not too big a fan of the snakeskin scaling, I'd try and find a Dan Wesson CBOB and get some custom work done on it with the $1000+ saved.

The easiest way would be the get the T3 and then have it re-finished however you'd like. Hard Chrome is a tougher finish than stainless steel anyway

I've owned a hard chrome t3 with accents and it was an amazing pistol , Dan wesson has great guns but they are not a Nighthawk, if you can afford it go build a custom, new compensators on the t3 look awesome as well

Look Into having a single shot conversion done by an 07 ffl like Valkyrie arms in milpitas or T and A in the central valley.

Don't just get an "alternative", if you want something, get that exact model you want.

single shot conversion is the way to go now, if you don't want to spend a lot more money (getting a CA legal one then get it hard chromed).

I wanted that T3 comp but it is not on the Roster. . So, I got predator 2 bobtail instead.
