I received my Inverness on Friday last. I placed my paid in full order in January of 2012. My serial number is 86. I was disappointed in the lack of a metal grip cap on the pistol grip. The order form explicitly states standard grips are a straight grip or a pistol grip with metal grip cap. It may still be that on line, I don't know. I placed a call today to inquire and first spoke to Bob who stated that he fielded a call yesterday inquiring about the same thing. I was transferred to Camille (spelling ?) a salesman who said that it was a design change and that Adam, the machine shop foreman may explain the reason for me better than he. Adam plainly states that the metal grip cap came standard only on the Deluxe model and the long tang models. I pointed out to him that it is on all the order forms I have ever seen, from the very beginning, since before the Deluxe was ever advertised. He reiterated that he has never seen a grip cap on a short tang standard Inverness. I asked whether I can talk to someone who could explain to me why I did not receive what I ordered, the answer was " well, I don't know who you could talk to about that". With that I hung up and ended my relationship with CSMC after my one and only new gun order.
