Shin Gunto in Modern Mounts from Ryujin Swords

Submitted by alansmyth on Sat, 2014-03-22 18:09

The site also stated that you could pay for the swords with a 25% deposit and then pay off the balance when required but the sword would stay the property of Ryujin Swords until fully paid for. I though this would be ideal for me as i wouldn't have to fork out the entire amount in one go.
