The guy at Cherrys told me they ordered 125 of them with the custom serial number, in the white. The first 25 got silver plate with gold accents, the rest got sent to Doug Turnbull for Blue/CCH. Evidently not many liked the pimped ones. Sounds like someone stripped yours and did'nt finish the job! These were among the first of the Pedersoli Trapdoors. 2002 there were 3 still in the rack, 2 silver, 1 Blue/CCH.
Cherrys is a great place BTW. If you're ever in North Carolina I reccomend it!
BTW, thats a GREAT price up there in Cabelas.
