Doverham - Thanks for sharing this. Originally the RBLs built to specified options were offered with just a 6 month warranty, all the way through the 16s and 12s. The 5 year warranty apparently is something new for the so-called "Reserve" guns.

CMSC is apparently stamping the RBLs they are selling now as "Reserve" on the rib but I can't find anything to indicate any difference between those guns and the RBL "Launch" edition. The gun I bought (stamped "Launch Edition") was not custom-ordered but bought at their showroom last November, neear the end of the production run. Besides the stamp, I am not sure on what basis they would distinguish between a Reserve and a Lauch Edition for warranty purposes, other than they are charging more for the Reserves. (They appear to be charging a premium for
"immediate delivery," which is an interesting way of using a surplus to create economic benefit. Their marketing and pricing strategies are nothing if not creative.)
I discovered the source of my warranty confusion. I have a Caesar Guerini on order and its comes with a limited lifetime warranty. Again, my apologies if I misled anyone.
