I was trying to relate my "kudos" to Pauls post by using the incorrect same sounding word (Cuda) to my Sams Town $200 Cobra strike. You are 100% correct. Can anyone fill me in with the details on how these strikes were gold plated by Jeff Blitzer. Was this done after they were issued? If so, when and by whom? I searched the silver strikers club archives under "NEWS" and could find no reference to that. I would think that topic would have been newsworthy.
