You might want to track down "RTB" at whatever city and state is listed on the P7

I believe they were a company out of Miami, FL that imported without HK's approval in the late 80's to 90's. Not sure on the exact dates, but I have read that HK shut them down and that they woud not service any RTB imports. I don't know if that holds much weight. I know there is more M8 and M13s with the RTB import stamp. I have a clean KA dated RTB P7 just to give you a reference on the dates. I'm also interested in more information, so anyone please chime in if they know more!

I also heard that they did the chrome jobs on M8s and M13s in Germany then imported them here.

I have an RTB Chromed P7M8. I have seen tons of rumors about these pistols but nothing definitive and I have googled this topic till my fingers bled.
