Old RCBS. Model A1. Need a manual.

[Dingus]

I was given a box of old reloading gear. Included a RCBS press marked A1. I talked with RCBS about getting a manual. Said no can do... "too old". Anyone know of a possible source?

Go here. I think it's pretty much the same as an A2/A3 and is just a Rock Chucker.

What do you need the manual for?

What do you need the manual for?

Yeah...it strikes me like asking for a manual for a hammer.

 

[Dingus]

Well... since you've asked... I have been told by someone that is familiar with this model, that it has been "modified". I would like the manual to compare its original design to the current design.

Thanks Mr. T for the link.

Some of the details may differ, but the manual for the A2 press will be close. --Not that there's much there for you to work with. What's left of the A3 illustrations are slightly better.

The A-series do have some differences, but are pretty much the same basic design. (A, A1, A2, A3.)

You're probably better off just doing image searches on the interwebs.

If the OP post a few pics of his press on Castboolits, Pressman will be able to tell him if the press has been modified.
