That's a good one Cody-They bought a Boss to hold them over until their RBL was delivered and decided to just settle for the Boss and keep it. Thanks for the chuckle!

For me it didn't live up the the hype of "You get what you pay for does not apply to the RBL". The way it was marketed made me think it had the features of 10k gun but at 3k. When people finally got their RBLs and they turned out to be just another 3k gun, I think a lot of people jumped ship. Most guys on this board own a lot of nice firearms and are not going to be satisfied with another run-of-the-mill firearm.

There is no way to know how many RBL's were ordered or how many have been delivered unless you have been granted access to the inner sanctums of CSMC. I doubt that anyone has been accurately counting the RBL's for sale on the various auction sites, gunshows, dealers' racks and deals between private individuals. There is no way that any kind of accurate ratios or trends can be calculated. Reminds me of an Oprah show where all the girls get together and share their deepest feelings! Maybe Doctor Phil could be of help here. Of course, he may have an RBL for sale too.

Most of the RBL's that are for sale belong to people who's medication has worked.

Dr. Phil went for the Exhibition Turkish upgrade, beavertail, case hardened receiver, and double triggers. Oprah went with single trigger, and the self opening option, everything else standard. Both ordered straight grip. Tony tried to talk her into the same program she did with the Pontiacs, but she wouldn't go for it.

A studio audience armed with RBLs -- that's a funny image!

...that a high percentage of them are going down the road from the original owners. A bunch of them for sale right here.
A bit sad, after reading all the excited posts here and elsewhere.
I don't buy guns every day. Come to think of it, I haven't bought a gun in a long while, although I did trade into one recently. But, it had been years prior to that since cold, hard cash left my grubby mitts for a gun. I'm pretty sure if I had ponied up for an RBL, I wouldn't have opened the box, and, without shooting it a season, or three, said, "Nope, that 'ain't for me".
But some guys have. Wonder why? Best, Ted Not to sound misinformed but where are all the ones for sale? I'm sure not selling mine and after my buddy saw it he regrets not ordering one. He's looking for a single trigger one, the only one I know up right now is the double trigger one at Cabelas. If somene has a ST for sale I'll let him know.
