My NIB Reproduction Bullet
Posted: Sat Sep 22, 2012 9:07 pm
Hey All,
I'm new around here but, thought I'd finally share with my first post in the Remington forum.
I came across this knife online and thought I was buying a 1995 model R1273...
I had not been too familiar with the reproduction bullet knives and I found what I thought was another example of this knife on a Remington Bullet Knife seller's site. So, I thought "Nice... A 1995 vintage with stainless steel and Delrin handles."
-And, I bought it. $30, shipped(!).
I now know it wasn't the R1273 but an R1273B that I had bought! It has jigged bone scales and is flawless in every way!
I had wondered why the "original" box was green, and not beige. Now, I know!
Thanks for viewing... This may be my best knife score ever! -Bill
