FVRIVS RVFVS Pillar of the Community United States 3437 Posts	Posted 12/02/2023 10:42 am Very nice . Additionally you have now 'graduated' to RIC 54 from RIC 38 Admittedly a minor difference . But of the sort that seemed to always thwart my honest efforts at upgrades All to often I would end up owning a pair ! RIC 54 is by far the more desirable to me as it dates to his final year . when he was 'out there' Way way out there ! Report this Post to the Staff
MartiVltori Pillar of the Community United States 870 Posts	Posted 12/02/2023 1:27 pm Hey Fvrivs, yeah I didn't even notice it was RIC 54 until it arrived and I was cataloging it. The seller incorrectly had it marked as RIC 38. I will be selling the old one in any case. Edited by MartiVltori 12/02/2023 1:28 pm Report this Post to the Staff
