I was thinking of getting a KP944, but I want the KP944 that is built almost identical to the P95, with the camblock and not the 1911 style link on the barrel. I noticed that all the online gun sellers that have Kp944s show a picture of the gun and it says P94 on it. No, big deal. But If you look at the Slide stop and the slide near the slide stop it is not the same as on the P95. So, There are apparently two differnce guns that go by the same label of KP944. One has the old style barrel link and the other has the newer Camblock like in a p95. Is it hard to find a p944 with the camblock? In a store I'd have no trouble distinguishing the difference, but If I ordered from Bud's or Abels who knows what I'd get. I'm sure there are a lot of older style Kp944s floating around that dealers would rather part with first. Anyone else have any more info on this topic? If you go on the Ruger website and look at the Kp944 on the slide stop side you can see the differnce in the slide stop and there are two cutouts in bottom of slide instead of one as in the earlier Kp944 design. Maybe Bud's and Abel's just have old pictures on their website?
Like on GunBroker this guy is selling the new model, but everyone else(actually there are only 4 Kp944 listed on gunbroker) has the older style.

A little further reading of the GunBroker add showed that the Manufacture # of 3425 means that it's the new style. Apparenly It's older pictures, and not older guns that are confusing me. Duh. :?
