I picked up one of these B grade for sale as well, but added the board select cause I hear that a lot of these have bad balls. And I got a really good bore just really dirty and it was one of those first rifles with the longer hand guard.
I got the carcano back that I had to return. While it was gone I paid extra to upgrade and bore select. The rifle I got back is almost as bad as the one I returned. RTI kills me
is this in 7.35? i have several carcanos in 6.5 but not this model. i do have an m38 but in 8mm which is a bear to shoot. they were out of the 6.5 by the time i seen the email. hope the bore is decent
Bavo. Now comes the hard part. The cleanup and restoration. I too have purchased from RTI. I got lucky. But really, this is buying Milsurp in 2024. There was much more 30 years ago. Yeah, sounds like a long time. You wait. It's there before you know it.

Nice sounds like you lucked out
I jumped on the Bgrade sale, got one standard and one hand select bore, both are in pretty good condition I’ll be making videos as well
Looking forward to checking them out.
Watching this makes me glad that I always pass on RTI (IO INC)

Yeah they can definitely be hit or miss. Hopefully they take care of you.

That's correct, bore looks decent so far but won't know for sure until I clean it out.

Yeah totally. It's only going to get worse unfortunately. Not too many caches left out there.
Ugly but it's 7.35!
