Anyone remember this RPB catalog?

[BlackBelt]

This RPB catalog was different than the others primarily because it was themed with a couple of distinguished country gentlemen and a dog featured throughout the booklet.
It was a real head-scratcher back then as well as today, but fun anyway.

Yes of course! This is the company that I refer to as “RPB 2.0”. This is not the same company as “RPB INDUSTRIES” from the late 70s early 80s. This “RPB” is “Russel’s parts Bin”, Russel Weeks’ business. They were the early distributor of Masterpiece Arms guns. The earliest masterpiece arms carbines are featured in that catalog and they are stamped “RPB 45 carbine” on the side. Some of them were erroneously stamped “RPB 46 carbine”.

Some of them were erroneously stamped “RPB 46 carbine”.

This is quite funny.
Probably resulted in repercussions too...stolen guns unable to be entered in database, assumptions the gun is a homebrew machinegun, etc.

I know Cleetus. That is not his real name and he worked for Wayne Daniel for some time. He is still around working gun shows.

The only Cletus I’ve ever known (other than RPB Cletus now)
