Royal Tiger Imports 1870/87 Vetterli TS | RTI Customer Service

Glad it worked out for you .My impression about RTI , is that in the beginning they were not very good at things . With different channels coming out with unboxing and experiencing different problems RTI is making an effort to correct them , basically they are getting free advertising , so they improve , they get better reviews , they get more sales .

[@usna98]

Agreed...they are much better than when they first started selling the Ethiopian guns.

I had an 1895 mannlicher long rifle they sent me with a bulged barrel. I contacted them and they replaced the rifle for me. The one they sent me was really nice. Pretty good customer service for me.

[@Evergreen509]

Super awesome to see that they made things right I’ve always had good experiences with the customer service as well!

[@usna98]

Good to hear! Thanks for watching!

RTI does a good job in the service Dept. THX USNA !

[@usna98]

They have definitely improved over the years.

[@resistanceremembered]

It’s nice that you were able to get the correct bolt. Now it’s in its original condition! Congrats!

[@usna98]

Thanks 👍

[@MidwesternFC]

Always nice to hear a company has good CS and stands behind their products. One of the most important things for me.

[@usna98]

They have definitely improved from when they first started selling guns out of the Ethiopian cache.

[@danheimmermann3497]

Agree. I’ve had nothing but good service from RTI

[@usna98]

They've definitely gotten better over the years.

[@gpoman9988]

Glad they made it right. I got to meet Stephanie and Shaw in person when I picked up my rifles and they were very nice.

[@usna98]

Great to hear! She has always been very nice to me over the phone.

I like to test my rifles with a snap cap. i use a hole punch on some clear vinyl from the hardware store and put that in the primer pocket. just throwin that out there. that way u can see if ur rifle will shoot without putting live ammo in it.

[@usna98]

I do the same thing, but unfortunately I don't have any 10.4mm cartridges.

[@brasstard7.627]

Nice!

[@usna98]

Thanks!

[@Contender-wk2kh]

do you have any tips for that funky 2 prong screw forward of the magazine? I don't think I can disassemble mine without getting that out.

[@usna98]

Yes, there are a couple of bits in the Wheeler set I just gave away as part of my 1k giveaway that aren't a great fit but can work. One is the Ruger Weaver 777-831 bit and the other is the Mauser 117-997 bit. With some finesse they work, but may need a little filing down/modification. Good luck!

[@Contender-wk2kh]

@@usna98 Thanks for the tip, I ended up using my tin snips as kind of a wrench. the blade ends fit into the bolt nice and snug, fortunately the bolt wasn't too tight. took it slow.
