Finish on 216´s

AK · 01-23-2007, 08:12 AM

Do the 216´s have a somewhat polished gunmetal finish or what? They look kind of shiny gunmetalish in pictures but I haven´t seen them in real life. Anyone out there who knows? Are they different than say the 193M´s?

Interesting question. I'd like to know as well because I'm considering either the 193's or the 216's or the 195's. The photos I've seen of the 216ss appear to be almost chrome. The one you posted looks about the same finish as the accompanying 193.

They look more shiny compared to the 193´s.
