Hello All

I contacted the buyer when the listing first started pointing out that it looked like the grey FRN model to me. He got back to me telling me it is a poor photo but is "definitely green!"

I have both the grey and the black and it still looks grey to me.

Jim

If you look at the second of his pictures, you will be able to see the difference in colour between the handle and the clip. (not that it really matters unless you were to but it and got a grey instead of a green.)

Allright .... I went ahead and pulled the trigger on this one. The guy insists it's green. He sent extra pics, but even with Adobe enhancements, I couldn't get much better than grey. It's definitely not black, but we'll soon see! I'll post once it comes in.

Well .... it came in today and even though the guy swore it was green ... It is a grey Matriarch. Go figure.

Hey Steve,

Sometimes you gotta roll the dice,
sometimes you win, sometimes you lose.
You still did alright since you ended up with a rare grey matriarch.

Dave,

I can live with grey ...!!! I really do think the guy believed it to be olive colored though. He may be somewhat colorblind. I'm not even going to write him about it.

Oh boy, well atleast you got another Grey.

That reminds me I must get another one, I got 2 of them and gave one away to a friend at work (worked for security (HUGE guy with a big heart, he was a professional bodyguard before he joined security at the casino)
Belive this guy just missed the guines book of records for the biggest bicepts, the one was apparently out by a centimter or two which lost him points.

Cheers
