Gladiator no more ?
 

has this model been discontinued ?

i thought i read they will still make it via special order. im sure special pricing applies.

I seem to recall a recent post that had the last gladiator in it. 700's and NXT's maybe?

Found it.

I read or was told somewhere that the labor involved in the lack of rub rail was part of the issue.

Yes thats right. They still have the mold and can make one upon request. But, its not in any new brochures or anything.

interesting , thanks for the info guys

good "reason".... i doubt it though

The rubrail was one of the big issues. Skip claimed it was an extra minimum 40 man hours to do this. It is very labor intensive and didn't fit into Skip's profit margin levels.

PM, figured it out, thats why the Glads hold there value well...thanks,:ernaehrung004:

Did Cig sell the molds to anyone or are they just keeping them around? The Gladiator is the sexiest Cig around.
