Well, the mailman dropped off my RTI sks today, better than I expected it is all matching 1957 6digit /26\ rifle  except the stock which is not numbered, full of trench art.. it does have surface rust but no pitting...I will get her cleaned up and snap some shots off it.

Nice...  lets see that puppy.    :)
      
1776 will commence again if you try to take our firearms... It doesn't matter how many Lenins you get out on the street begging for them to be taken.

I rolled the dice again and ordered a C-grade from RTI. I'm hoping for some trench art on mine. I Would like to see some photos of these carbines with all the different trench art. Maybe start a thread on it.

Classic now shows to be out of B-grades. I'm glad I didn't wait to order till after Christmas. My RTI C-grade should be here tomorrow.  :)

Classic had 80 B-grades yesterday. Unless one of the mods just took out a mortgage another vendor snatched these up.

Definitely sounds plausible.  They may just be shutting things down for a break over Christmas and want to make sure they don't oversell too.  I've been getting emails from various places (got one from SGAmmo a while ago) saying they'll be shutting down over the holidays...

Just going by what website shows.  RM, that could be the case or they are down to C-grades and are going to advertise them after Christmas.

Yup.  Classic's page is usually better updated when compared to some of the other guys.    thumb1 

We're most certainly seeing the last of this batch, and possibly the entire importable cache.

FedEx just delivered a C-grade from RTI. 6digit receiver in the 200000's. All parts match but in the 100,000's. Replacement stock is a bottom swivel marked in the 100,000's but doesn't match and has a long crack down left side that can be fixed. Bluing looks good very little rust. Also stock is not beat up very bad. Very nice for a C I think. MERRY CHRISTMAS to all!

Marshal-law I think a thread dedicated to trench art is a great idea? C'mon...someone get started on it please!
