3RD PLACE RCA ADVANCED (TIE)

Bob’s great display had all ten types of the Red Eagle pistols. Also displayed was the extremely rare #10000 Chrome plated Red Eagle, a pre-production gun, a model that was never produced, and # 25020 Target Red Eagle.

Each Type, the Type 1, 1A, 2 – 9 all have a change or changes that make it a different variation. Several of these variations are very hard to find and downright rare…especially in the minty condition of the guns displayed.
