I remember hearing the same thing, around the same time, and you are right, they are still listing them in their wholesale catalog. I was just wondering it these are "left overs" from the last run, or are they still being made.
If they are still making them, there are other things more pressing, other wise I'd like to get one in stainless. I currently have a .45 h&k compac, but the grip doesn't fit me as well as the .40
