    RCBS 2-A Press off Craigslist

    I'm the new proud owner of this classic press.

    This morning I was browsing through the "sporting goods" and came across a RCBS 2-A Press posted just 14 hours earlier. I called the phone number at 6:30 A.M. and left a message. Then called back an hour later and made arrangements to purchase it. It is complete with the priming arm assembly. I scrubbed it with soap and a scotch bright, Put the handle in the lathe to address the surface rust. Everything has been oiled and its now ready to work.

    The 2A is my favorite of the A presses. Probably because it was the first of the big RBS presses to follow me home. I put a lot of rounds through it with an equal amount of satisfaction.

    congrats. I did the same thing as you years ago. Only difference was I grabbed a can of john deere green from the farm store and painted mine. Its the one I use every day.
    Stop being blinded by your own ignorance.
