Ed Brown: .38 Super Is Back
Ed Brown Products announced the return of the .38 Super cartridge to the company’s line up starting immediately. According to the company limited edition runs of guns chambered for the .38 Super cartridge have been “wildly popular,” and the company made the decision to bring the cartridge back to the company’s stable of normal options.
Ed Brown Products states that any of the company’s Government and Commander guns can be configured for the cartridge with two caveats. First, threaded barrels are not currently an option for .38 Super. Second, only stainless steel slides will be able to be used on these pistols. All of the company’s other options are available on these guns.
In addition to the re-introduction of the .38 Super, the company is now offering a new Gen4 color combination. The new colors are available on all of the company’s Alpha series 1911 style pistols. The combination uses a flat dark earth finish on the frame while olive drab green is used on other parts including the slide, trigger, bushing, hammer and thumb safety. Matching Gator Back Green Back Linen grip panels from VZ Grips are used to finish out the look.
The above photo shows the finish on the company’s Alpha Elite Light Rail. The finish and grips is a $295 option.

Does this mean the next Glock will be a 38 Super? :)
I wonder why it has to have the stainless slide?
