Rainshadow Blanks

Yesterday I received my first shipment of Rainshadow blanks. They are awesome. Just on faith, I ordered and I received more than what I expected. Ive mainly built G-Loomis blanks and Rainshadow are just as good as far as quality and overall performace of the blanks. If you all been wondering about their quality, I highly recommend you order some because It looks like Ill be building strictly Rainshadow, for the price and quality, you cant beat them. I have some GLoomis IMX PR902 blanks in stock and put them up to a ISP 902 Rainshadow, their basically the same blank, without the high cost. Rainshadow will be getting all my business. Thanks to Kerry and the whole bunch for being so nice.

As a stocking distributor with Batson Ent. for Rainshadow and Forecast, I can vouche for David's enthusiasm. For the price point, you will get a very consistent and quality blank. The performance is top notch, and from Batson;s they are packed with great care to get to us safely and clean, anytime I've received a shipment. I can say our customers have had terrific acceptance to the Rainshadow line.

You might be interested in checking the Forecast components to use with your blanks. Also, a great buy and Batson high quality and inspection.
The Forecast import line of blanks really amaze me also as for the value and consitent appearance. Good perormance and for the price of most blems or seconds. Remember, these are first run new blanks and selected. Customer satisfaction is very high with both lines and we're proud to be able to offer them as well.
