I found my old post where I did mention slab sides in a "PS". I have a call in trying to get a verification, but I thought that I was told "recently" slabs are only available on a select few models, i.e. "Cattleman", "Stanaback Specials", etc. I'll find out. I have to go to the shop tomorrow...to be continued...with or without any more brain farts by me!
