Title: RNS

Can anyone share any light on RNS. Our overseas player swears by them but they do not seem widely available.

From what I've heard about them they are supposed to be very good bats. Apparently they are one of better pressed Asian bats. They have a website RNS Larsons. Google it.

I have been selling them for about 10 years, very nice bats if you hand pick them, been to the factory last year and like most Indian brands they have a wide range of grades.

Yeah, I'll join in - if you pick the right one -very very good bats. Good enough to be re-stickered by a couple of 'boutique brands' out there.

My match bat for last year was one, and it had nearly the best middle I've ever used.

My choice willow is apparently one, so the one ive used is very nice, not the biggest for the weight but good pickup and started going very well indeed towards back end of season(didnt have for whole season though).
Aclubmate has one which seems to go well.

Choice make most of their bats on site. It's the £120 stock ones that are apparently Larsons. So not the ones you have linked to

No worries, Choice put a little "handcrafted in hertfordshire" type sticker on bats they make themselves if you want to tell the difference.
