    Auction: One rcbs "a" model reloading press

    I have aquired an RCBS "A" model reloading press. I believe this press was manufactured around 1955. It is "not" an A2, or a 2A. You old timers (me included) know, these presses were manufactured in the United States, with cast steel, "not" cast iron. These presses work great for swaging, and/or any case forming job with no fear of breaking. This press needs some cleanup. There is light rust. The handle (tube) will clean up easily with some fine wet/dry paper. The paint is the original krinkle green. The linkage works great, and the ram runs up and down. The original threaded bushing is in the press. The top couple inches of the ram has some light surface rust.The primer arm is "not" with the press. If anyone would like to see photos, let me know with a PM. "PLEASE" only serious inquirers. No tire kickers. I would keep this press for myself, but I don't swage, and my RC II does all I need it to do. The auction starts today June 26 2022, and ends one week from today at 12:00 noon on Sunday July 3rd 2022, PDT. I will start the bidding at 100.00 dollars. Good luck to any bidders. P.S. For payment, I accept PayPal F&F or PayPal + 3%, or USPS MO. Thank you all for lookin.

    If a 41 won't stop it, I wouldn't bet my life on a 44.
