Today was payday and I was waiting for today to buy one of the RTI kits with a barrel. Today is also the day the RTI is sold out of them. Is there any other place that sells Kits with the barrels?  That seemed to be a pretty good deal.

I don't know of any offering the kit with a pinned barrel now.  It was a decent decent deal for the money.

Sportsmans Guide has some parts kits, maybe a few other places?

I swear I saw these were $250 the other day, now $400?

They were $247.  Next day looked at them and they're $359/399.

Yup, i scored one for the $247. There was only like a 12 hr window to buy them at that crazy price, but they are still worth it at $400 IMO

I was trying to get two as well so I could do both an a1 and a 177. I had the funds for the one so i placed it right away, and was working on a separate order that morning after moving some money around only to find out the prices had went back up. Oh well...

Yes sir I have, but my wife and I just had a new baby so we're stuck in the hospital for another day while the kit sits in my office. When I get home I'll post pics before I clean everything up

They were the same price on GB. They called me this morning and it should have never said out of stock. I went ahead and just got one off GB.

In route. Should be here Friday since they be just across the state from me.

If the upper is chewed (like the last two kit uppers I got) I think I will try to trade two chewed for one good condition one.

The LAST thing I need is another dayum upper sitting around waiting to reproduce and multiply!

ThRob, congratulations on the baby and hope the wife is doing well.  Saw the pics of the kit in the other thread and looks like you got a great deal!

My prediction is that you will love the 605. You wouldn't think a few less inches of barrel would make such a huge difference, but it feels like an entirely different weapon.

I never was even remotely interested in 605's until 2 things happened. 1. I bought a dissapator and set it up with an A2 upper and a fixed stock. 2. I saw a picture of your 605 and fell in love.

Copied and pated from the canted FSB thread. When I looked through the small parts some pieces were missing.
Kit was from RTI off GB

Kit came today, I did good. No FSB cant, pins are flush. The handguards are newish. The buttplate is worn but not cracked. Upper has just the right amount of wear, with a little patina on the port door. My only gripe is the barrel was sticking out of the box for all to see.


Upper went together fine. The bottom of the handguards are a little uneven, but no biggie, just a pet peeve.


Missing parts from kit: Hammer, hammer spring, mag release button, one detent spring is missing and the other is not usable. The A1 buttplate screw is also missing.
