If you come back on and your login does not work retry with your username without the 7.

Thanks for joining us from the administration.

I see nobody has bid yet on this "Regia Aeronautica" M91/38TS. What a crock!!! :bull: :bull: FNA simply used the RA letter block... followed, oddly enough by the RB letter block. :roll:

I see someone bid, I'll call the guy's story. :bs:

By itself, it's a nice TS, but the story adds exactly NOTHING to the value! SW

**edit** I couldn't stand it any more and sent the guy this e-mail:

Sir,

Strictly speaking, you have an M91/38TS rather than an M91/28 and a very nice one at that.

The letters "RA" do not show use by the Italian air force, however. FNA Brescia simply used those letters as a prefix to the serial number according to standard Italian practice.

You will also see FNA-B with an "RB" letter prefix, as well.

Best of luck with the auction.

The guy actually replied and said he "saw someone else sell an RA as Regia Aeronautica" so he figured he could, too. SW
