Which is best? Or is there any difference?

Thanks.

It all comes down to price aesthetics and presonal preference. They are essential the same gun, made in the same plant. Of course If you want a vent rib the new topper deluxe classic is the best. I prefer the nickle receiver but some people hate it.

Thanks Markus and Scruffy!

I still do not have a 2004 color catalog. Looks like Markus is right, its just personal preferences. Never seen one of the nickel receivers up close.

Thanks again. Mike
