Pic Request: Rats and RATS

trestle · May 6, 2008

Would somebody please post some pics comparing the Howling Rats (preferably and HRLM) with the RC-3 and/or RC-4? If you don't have an HR, a Dumpster Mutt or Yard Keeper would be fine as well.

Close to what you wanted.

Thanks, messer454, that's what I was looking for. I'm still hoping someone can post a Howling Rat next to a RAT. It seems to me that the Howling Rats fit in between the two RC's with the DM's being a little longer. Looks good, thanks again.

I've been wondering this myself, I have a HRLM and was considering a RAT. I think the RC4 is closer in size to the HRLM than the RC3 would be. I would love to see these models side by side.

Sorry I don't have a picture to post, but I can tell you that the choil on the RATs and RCs, as well as the DM, are bigger than the one on the HRLM. You can actually fit your finger in them if you want to choke up.

RC4 is definately closer in size to HRLM than RC3.

I had this pic too but not all of them together. Sorry

Here is a pic of a RC-3 and a HRLM side by side.

Awesome M67, thanks for that one.

the rc-3 cutting edge is as long as the gen 2 howler's, but the gen 2 howler is bigger overall. bigger handle and the choil really extends the length of the blade. the rc-3 is also much thinner than the howling rats.

Thanks for the photos messer and chucker, just what I was hoping for. I had a feeling the RC-3 and HRLM were very similar in size, if not thickness. The choil on the HRLM is pretty useless for choking up, but what a good excuse for a mod!
