Was high bidder in RIA this past month on a lot. guns were supposed to be here Thursday They did make it to Roanoke 40 miles away, But then for some reason the were sent to Union Gap Washington State being pissed off does not help any, but I will take photos to make any claims that might arise, All three were in one box 43lbs hope they get back to VA undamaged, Gary

Really bizarre Gary. That happened to me twice on guns that were shipped to my address and tracking showed they were coming in the right direction, then for some unknown reason they got diverted across the country. All ended well but a couple of weeks late.

Yea Dean, Package left Portland Oregon at 12:15 PM They say I will get it Friday by 9:00 PM Just hope it is OK when I get it, especially the Parker lifter that was converted to a double rifle 44-40, Gary

That stinks. I remember that double rifle and was tempted but did not bid.

It was an interesting lot Mills, When I called and got MWT etc they were better than the description in the book so I took a chance the rifle has a cracked stock that needs repair and the grade2 has a repair to the stock, but barrels were better than described so I was infected with Parkeritis and bid, Gary

I wound up with several pre 64 Model 70's. I missed out on the 8 gauge and a SBT, but got the SBT discussed on another thread which is much better. Also bit the bullet and bought a svelte VH 16 on 0 frame with original 26" barrels.

Gary sorry to hear, have you contacted the shipper to put a tracer on the package? The squeaky wheel gets the grease. I have lost two packages recently, I am glad they were not firearms.
