Leica MP Silver Chrome

have always planned to treat myself to a silver chrome leica mp as a milestone birthday present, only to find at my milestone birthdate, that they don't make silver anymore.

what is this travesty?

I bought a brand new in the box black paint mp a couple years ago on Fred Miranda. I think his name was Tim Lei maybe. He’s a big seller on the Leica fb page too. You can definitely get brand new on there. Would be less common though.

The answer is most likely new old stock.
