Before you order anything from Riverbank (or the other company names they operate under) read what others have to say about them. Here are a couple of links: http://forums.thecmp.org/archive/index.php/t-126978.html and http://www.uscarbinecal30.com/forum/riverbank-armory_topic5098.html
I can only tell you my personal experience in ordering with them - SEVERAL times. I got what I ordered and there were no problems in paying for it with a credit card.
Have you personally ever bought anything from them?
No. My nephew works in the gun industry and warned me about Riverbank and George Liakos. Haven't you ever wondered how Riverbank can continue to source barrels with WW2 date codes? Do you really think M1 carbine barrels were made during WW2 and not used? Every barrel available was used to build guns to fight the war. In fact, everything being made at that time was directed on building things to fight the war.
Supposition.... I've seen nothing I got from them that was remotely 'faked'. I provided a source to the OP for parts - you decided to neg that...okay... there's that... If you want to neg somebody, try SARCO.... they're famous for bait and switch and selling crap.....I'm done here...
And now Riverbank is selling this book to legitimize the parts they sell. See what the folks on CMP are saying about the book and the parts pictured in it. http://forums.thecmp.org/showthread.php?t=31341
You've got the ass about Riverbank...I can see that. A book. So what? I've got "War Baby volumes 1, 2 AND 3" that I use to verify legitimacy of anything I buy from anybody. EIGHT! Eight million produced and you don't think there can still be any unmounted or dismounted barrels out there. Sure....
