This Talon hit a dealers shelves and I knew it wouldn't last long. Had wanted one for quite a while so I didn't have to do much thinking, just had to figure out where the money was coming from.

It's a 5" bobtail with all black nitride finish. Replaced the OEM grips, which are UGLY with this set from Sarge. I've had it about six weeks now and put about 800 +/- rounds through it. So far it is doing really well. A strong load of AA9 under a 180gr. HP/XTP seems to be the right combination.
This is my third 10mm, I had a Kimber SS Target and a DW C-Bob that both have been sold. I think this is a keeper. Pondering getting a Guide's Choice Chest Holster for it. That would make it an ideal hiking and fishing combination.
Aren't those $3,000 or more? :o
Yup, afraid so.
Very nice Buster!!
I have one of those holsters on order myself! I'll post up about it once I get it. :D

Glad to hear your Hawks running well for you CB and those grips are very nice congrats sweet setup. I just scored a Falcon 10mm also put some pics down below.
That Cbob i got from you has got some heavy duty springs in it too. Thanks and happy shooting.
It's a very nice looking piece. What does Nighthawk use for the black finish? Does the slide carry more weight in the 10mm version over what is commonly used in a dedicated 45 Auto version?
In his post he indicated this was Black Nitride, which is H&M Metals version of ferritic nitrocarburizing. Basically it is the same as Tenifer, but by a different company. Should be very durable.
Thanks for pointing that out. I guess I was so engrossed in the pic that I missed it.
Buster, what didn't you like about the Kimber?
Very nice CB. Hope she serves you well.
