Yes, they're Chinese. MB+W sells them aswell, but they're still pricey.

BrenMurph has some, reckons they're not as durable due to thinner steel (iirc).

not so much thinner steel rather, 
1
there are no rubber protection so risk bottom gets worn through after months / years where cornys never wear due to 3 inches of runbber protection
2
where the dome top and concave bottom meet the body the welds are not 100% food grade so need caution with sanitation.

pros,

take 5 gallons, seals and ball locks spot on, look good as all stainless, price at 95 euros is reasonable ( cornys couple hunded new)

When the corny thread started there was IIRC a photo of one without the black rubber top just two handles and the posts all polished up.

This is the effect I am looking for I would junk the rubber!

Something like this:

Not Chinese. Well the newer ones could be but originally the metal handle ones were challenger vi Spartanburger or something to that effect. I had one somewhere. Different posts and poppets but still took a disconnect.

Hey Alex
New to the site so forgive me if this has been covered, I gather from previous comments you will have some more corny kegs available soon? I would definitely be interested in 2 if you have them available? Also if you could send me some info on the kegs; age, condition, with or without rubber protection, cost, location (pick up or delivery)?

Thanks mate,
John
