I hope you're going to use that to have reproductions made. At least try to get some of your money back.

I was watching that myself, and at one point considered bidding on it (when there was only 1 bid). I decided not to ultimately and forgot about it yesterday until after it ended and when I saw that final prince my jaw hit the floor

I don't get it.
At the end of the day a clone/repro/homage/whatever is exactly that. It isn't and never will be an original gun, and I just don't understand spending that kind of money on an original/rare part just to put it into a clone/repro/homage gun. It's like chasing down an original Shelby American 302 to put in an original 6 cylinder car. It isnt and will never be a GT350 . That said It's not my money, more power to you if that turns your crank, but I dont get it. |

But there is always someone willing to pay over on Gunbroker is all I was meaning lol. Never said they were Real Valuable, just that I could get good $$$ for them since they were free for me  and plenty more sitting in bags & boxes so no telling what I have until I look them all over. |

I get the desire to clone, but not at that level. I guess some people will look at their clone and bask in the part by part authenticity. My clones are just clone-ish. But at the end of the day, it’s not my money. 😁

What approximate year(s) are these pieces supposed to be cloning?
Couldn't you just go buy a 1960s/70s Colt SP1 somewhere and just swap the receiver out for a full-clone-marked receiver? It'd basically have all 'nam date specific parts, instead of buying each part for hundreds apiece. |

Not every search leads to success, but eventually with slight changes in your search, it can bring you valuable information. P.S. It would be great to see ar15.com improve it's search option. Limited to at least 3 characters in each search really makes it difficult. Example: N1 stock, 2 position, Mp bolt, or M1 all will fail as a search....
