I looked at a bi tone XD9 this weekend and really liked it. However, I overheard a guy at the gun shop commenting that there aren't going to be many of the stainless ones around because Springfield was discontinuing them.

Any truth to that?

um, I highly doubt it since the GAP's are coming out in "stainless" bitone... well maybe from the custom shop. But I HIGHLY doubt that guy knows anything

Maybe he just wanted to make the sale.

The bi-tone is very popular choose, I don't see them discontinuing it.

Bitones really aren't stainless are they - isn't the stainless look just a finish?

Go to the Springfield web site .Ask them on thier site they will get back with you on that issue

As answered many times before they are stainless, it is not a finish. Call springfield they will tell you the same.

Good news that they aren't being discontinued. I called the local gun shop and they had a brand new stainless bi-tone in 9mm in stock with 2 hi caps and a case for $529.

$529...high? low? I have no idea what I should be paying.

$529 sounds a bit high, unless you live in CA or NJ or something.

West Texas 9mm BiTone, 3 high cap & holster pack for $485+ tax if memory serves me correctly. .40 Tactical w/2 mags $475 & 9mm SubCompact W/3mag pack for $450.

i just got my bitone xd-40 service last week and i'm loving it... it looks great. I seriously doubt that they would consider discontinueing the bi-tone. And i would hope not, cuz i think getting a matching xd-40sc would be a nice compliment to my service model. hehe...

Talk them down. Walk in with cash and be like $450 right now.
