True Black Widow

[Lobster]

Saw this on facebook from Shot Show 2019. Has any one heard of when this will be available and cost?

Interesting...

So it is black, like painted black.  Prolly costs more too, I will stick with my regular old BW.  Thanks though, I am sure it is a good gun so I hope it comes available soon so you can get one and post some PIX!

[OV-1D]

  I don't know either but I wish they would hurry up dang it .

[RICKS PLACE]

Gee, thanks a lot, Gog.   Just as I was satisfied with my NAA collection, you show the version to come of the Ranger II  with a longer barrel and great looking grips.  Now I can start saving and come up with an excuse why I need another gun.  Wonder if Sandy can get with an early bird run?  For some reason, the local gun stores on the South Texas areas are very slow getting new models of NAA's.

[OV-1D]

  Geeze Rick thanks I looked right past the grips , it would be an improvement with those as factory , wouldn't .

I think that black coating will make the price tag outta my league 

[Canoeal]

I think a black gun with a cylinder ring is going to look bad fast...

[bearcatter]

Why negate the best feature of a stainless gun by adding a coating that's impossible to repair well?

[Mr.Mini]

I get the appeal if you're a collector of minis, but I just don't see the purpose. The standard BW is going to cost less and function the same.

LOL at the Krylon Widow.  Is it April 1 already?

[Uncle_Lee]

I about did a thread drift,,, but I didn't.

I'm gonna win that one. You all just pay no attention to the giveaway.

Good Luck, I entered but I never win anything so I hope BoiseSteve does win.

[MR_22]

I'm pretty sure I saw one of these at the SHOT Show in Vegas in January. I like it.

Here's the link on Facebook to the North American Arms post, plus the picture they posted. The post says they are available now.

I'm not really down w it.
if it was Blued, maybe, 
looks  like its for  the black rim oversize tire crowd .

[Warthog]

+1 on a blued one but we have already discussed why they don't do it a lot.  In fact Sandy told us.

[bearcatter]

I'll like it just fine after I win it......

[grayelky]

They are not due out till April. I just checked and the MSRP on the 22 mag, SS is $288.00, and the PVD (black) in 22 mag is $318.00, with the combo being $353.00. As soon as I find them in stock, I'll pass it along, and which distributor.

[Boisesteve]

Hey Bearcat,
Dunno which one you're gonna win, but the one in the magazine giveaway  is coming with me!
Good luck, right?
Steve

[bearcatter]

LOL....Would you deny a guy his first Mini? For free? That's the only way I can afford one right now...sniff....Good luck to you, anyway....

I admit I was a little disappointed that the "True Black Widow" or "Black Black Widow" isn't going to have the XS night sights.  Then today I looked at the sights or lack thereof on a Keltec P32 while at a gun show and have gained a fresh appreciation of the BW sights.

[bill_deshivs]

A PVD coating is far from a painted or Krylon finish.
Positive Vapor Deposition is an extremely durable finish.

[Honky Tonk Man]

The wheels on my F-150 are PVD coated.  It looks just like chrome.  I was a little hesitant about them at first, but they're 2 years old now and are holding up fine.  In fact, probably better than chrome.

Question, are the black widow fixed sights drift adjustable?
