    Please help me pick which Nighthawk to buy quickly

    Hello
    I am debating two Nighthawks one is a Heinie Tactical Carry 100 rds (confirmed) through it all paper work LNIB for $2930 delivered down from $3895 new (not delivered). Or a Talon with 10-8 solid trigger and 10-8 rear sight for $2150 delivered about 100 rounds no signs of carry no box or papers and a small scratch under trigger guard (very faint). Though the Talon is missing its paper work it still has bag and magazines. Which would you go with? I am stuck. I have no .45 ACP ammo or mags anymore. So I was thinking the Talon so I could have some funds left over. Though the Heinie is priced well and has more amenities. Thanks in advance

    I have one of the Nighthawk 10-8's. I believe you will be quite happy with the Talon. That is a large price difference for minimal return.
    Also, these pistols shine under hard use. The first scratch hurts a little. After that, honest wear is just character.

    Does the NH finish wear anymore than Wilson's Armor Tuff?

    Perma coat wears about the same as Armor tuff imo. However; when it starts to look really bad, Nighthawk can put their "Black Diamond" finish on it, which is roughly as durable as the name implies.

    Fair enough. When it arrives next week. I'll give you a picture for proof
    I've heard Diamond Black is pretty heavy duty stuff. I've already considered ion bonding it. Though I like a rough looking gun makes it look like or in fact indicates you use the thing.
