    As a 69 year old, I get weary of the inevitable comments :. Why back in my day you could get one of those for ___________.". First, you could get gas for .25 cents a gallon. I've done it. In the late 50s you could buy a brick house for 7,000 dollars. Both were expensive given wages. 41 dollars for a k98k was a weeks wages. Reality sucks.

    It's great that you're doing this and I am sure the time and money just for getting through the legal hoops was crazy, but for the prices you are asking just be a little more detailed and honest with your condition descriptions. Quit showing a pic of the best rifle in the batch. Show a few examples of good ones, and a few examples of the bad ones. That way people aren't shocked when they get one on the low end of the scale.

The Beachwood furniture is beautiful, the Parkerizing was nice and better than anything I could do, still working on the bore! LOL! I knew what I was paying for and would not complain if it was a paper weight. It is not, it is a part of history that I have since studied and very much appreciatte! I have spent more money on all the accessories for this rifle than I did the rifle itself. I love it! Thank you.

I bought an M1 rack grade garland from CMP and am completely satisfied with it. No issues with it. However, I’m looking for an M1D sniper rifle that’s affordable even if it’s like rack grade. I was trained with it in the Army back in 1971 and before I leave this earth I would like to own one. With all the weapons they have there should be at least one that’s in good condition. Let me know please. Thanks.

Their ego is so big that they can't take some honest reviews by customers. Bless your heart, @RTI-Imports. You claim honesty, yet here is another example that proves otherwise. Y'all should be ashamed. Have you never heard the phrase "the customer is always right?" In your world, "the customer is always trying to screw me." They replied to my comment from yesterday (that has been mysteriously deleted, btw) that I have "no idea the amount of hard work that goes into a project like this" (that's their literal job) and if I "do not like honesty" then I "simply do not need to be on this channel or be a customer." GREAT way to do business! @RTI-Imports - I'll offer this bit of advice again (since you deleted it last time) - Take a small amount of your profits and attend some legit customer service training. Pay attention in that training and make your business shine! Wonder how long this will remain before it's deleted....
