Saw one at my local gun dealers, it was an SS rodo, dark green with some wear, $165. I was dumb and decided to wait till the next day to call him and tell him i wanted it. Needless to say, huge mistake on my behalf, but when you are unsure and SS isn't your thing, you sometimes pass on the goodies. Matt

No, I've never seen a steel made Overhoff or JFS factory green painted............but never say never !

Here is an Overhoff aluminum I believe was factory green painted. Those photos were posted by Marc Verstraete in the Yahoo's SS buckle Forum in 2001. At that time he said he was the owner of this buckle and probably he still his. But I let him providing more accurate / updated information.
