Whats the difference between the CQB and the CQB Elite on their web site all I see is a ambi safety?

You need to spend more time looking at the back of the Cap 'N Crunch box when they have those "find the 10 things different between the two pictures" games on it.

Right off the bat...

- Ambi safety

- V-10 grip upgrade

- Hand-blended speed chute

- Lanyard MSH

- Serrated extractor flat (the one I read from the description instead of the photo comparison_


They may also offer different color combos the CQB doesn't. That's what I spotted in the min I spent comparing the two

My CQB Elite has serrated slide top and rear of slide, extra tuned, fitted and serrated extractor, mag well, and no FCS.  It shoots like a laser. If you can swing it, the elite is nice.

In my opinion -

The CQB has everything you need on a gun.  The Elite version has a lot of nifty "additions", or perhaps in some people's minds "nice to haves" but to me all those extras are just "bling".  

The Elite version is too trick for my liking.  It's got a lot of junk on it that I wouldn't want like serrated top, mag well, etc.  For me, I want night sights, ambi-safety (cause I'm a lefty), and that's about it.  Too much on there starts looking ugly to me and is unnecessary.

Just my personal preference and opinion.  Doesn't make it "right" - just makes it my opinion.

Their catalogs used to have a nice chart comparing the features of each handgun, so you may want to request a catalog.

You don't have to choose a specific gun.  I started with a "base" gun and then added the extra features I wanted.

I agree 100% my Professional has a mag well, and I dont care for top serations at all, I'm a lefty to so a ambi safty is a MUST have.
Thanks!
