    Why in the name of neptune would someone make up an RIA barrel with a late 1920's date? Weird.

    "Logic" does not always explain one's actions.

    There's an internet auction right now which lists a Rock Island barrel dated 10-19. I didn't know that RIA made any 10-19 dated barrels. But I suppose they now have. They "get by with a little help from their friends."
