Pegasus6 Posted January 1, 2019 Wow that went for some big money. Is Stenger a relative of yours? I wish I could provide more details but it is a matter between myself and the buyer... I should re-phrase that, its a matter between the buyer, RIA, and myself. And bottom line up front I would never buy from RIA.

WWIIBuff1945 Posted January 1, 2019 Hey no problem. I hope your situation works its self out. Good luck. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pegasus6 Posted January 1, 2019 Thank you Buff, Its just a very delicate situation. RIA did nothing wrong on the front end, Buyer didnt do anything wrong, and I peiced some things together that make it a very unfortunate story... And nothing is illeagle or stolen. Thats not what I am implying. But RIA absolutly has done and is doing NOTHING after I presented a plethora of information to them. They just care about they made $ and they refuse to fix anything or contact the buyer. Never buy from RIA... VRPegasus6 Yea I am a content camper. But somebody oblivious and I'm sure very content still with thier purchase and they shouldnt be...

Cpl. Punishment Posted April 6 I want to bump this back to the top! Lets see some more bring backs! On a side note, I am always looking to buy bringback weapons (as a re a few other guys on this thread!) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cpl. Punishment Posted April 7 Here is one in my collection! Notice the capture papers are filled out in March of 1945! It also came with a modified 1911 shoulder rig holster which I am sure is what he wore while driving truck. He was part of the Redball Express. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
