Personally, I would cancel the order. As someone said you can always purchase one on the open market and see what you are getting.

I returned mine because of dreadful checkering and after they could not fix the checkering they gave me a refund. I saw one for sale yesterday at the Northbrook Double Classic and it had the same lousy checkering job. Chuck H saw the same issue with the RBL's he saw. bbman must have gotten a couple of the good ones.

For the money the checkering, engraving and wood finish I observed leave alot to be desired. As you know you can do a great project gun for the same money or a little more, and get a lot more gun.

I am still baffled why CSMC can not, or will not produce these RBL's to consistent standards.
