RIA sold many this morning.  What’s the opinion on the authenticity of these rifles?  I think all of them had hammer prices below the auction estimates.  Personally, I can’t look at a boxed M61 without having flashbacks to, “Selling Dad’s Old Guns” (or whatever he calls himself now). Here’s an example – this one had a hammer price of $3500:

Another one ($2750 hammer price):

I seriously doubt any RIA rep wrote the condition comments…I hear you loud and clear though.
