In the continuing attempt to clean out some of my excess goodies that I really have no reason to hold onto are here are a couple of MKII panels that were limited runs for the RCA back in the 80's. I don't have a lot of information on them as they came in a box of goodies that I purchased sometime in the past. I hauled them to Tulsa last year and passed them around with only a little bit of information gleaned from the experience. The white panels are Ivory, and the darker panels are Ebony with an Ivory insert for the RCA logo. Both are in as new condition and come wrapped in the white RCA paper under the panels in the pictures. $550 shipped. I do not accept electronic payment but a personal check from a well-established member will be accepted. First posted "I'll take it" has priority over PMs. SOLD PENDING FUNDS

If anyone has any additional information on these, I would love to hear it.

Very very nice. I have been thinking about putting nicer panels on my two mark 2s and they've got me thinking; but... those are so nice I'd probably be afraid of scratching them or something and just keep in the safe. They definitely deserve to be displayed instead of hidden away.

Very Nice!

I have both sets already. IMO, the ivory grips alone are worth your asking price.
I believe they were produced to coincide with the release of the "Red Barn" RCA Mk.II pistols in the "salt cod" boxes.
They were offered separately to RCA members from the guns themselves. Good luck with your sale!

In my opinion.............these may also have been destined or choice backup for the custom Ivory panels done by Ray Viramontez for the RCA's "signed"gift to Steve Vogel which was a SS 100% engraved coverage 22 standard auto which I purchased at auction from Steve's son via the Batterman Galleries in Prescott..............
