Here's another one that came out of gun jail this week.
An RHKP surplus S&W 10-7.
The RHKP carried M10's for a few decades before they were worn enough that they decided to order replacements. Once the replacement M10's arrived the RHKP decided nah, we are going to use Glocks. So the majority of the new M10's were shipped back after sitting unused for 10 years or so, along with some of their used M10's. They were returned through the distributor so no import stamps, and were then sold to the US market.
RHKP M10's can be found in all conditions from like new to heavily worn. They can be identified through their unique lanyard, the only M10 from -7 on to have a factory lanyard installed, and through the engraved rack and branch engraving on the backstrap.
RHKP will be engraved with the RHKP and a rack number through 13,000 or so,
Hong Kong customs and excise guns will be engraved C&E.
This is a customs and excise gun, hence the C&E.
Approximately 13,000 guns were returned, so they are not rare or valuable, but they are very cool.
This particular one I suspect might be unfired, as it was bone dry inside and no carbon wiped off during cleaning.
