Looking at purchasing a MG3/42 AA tripod since I bought a KNS Precision spade grip for my M16.

What's the going rate for one? I'm seeing roughly a range of $179-$350.

Anyplace have them in stock? Everywhere I've looked is currently out of stock.

I'm currently overseas.. Wondering if I can pick one up in Germany and bring it back with me? LOL seriously.. Shouldn't be any issues with that right.. It's a HD camera tripod.

Ive got a link for you.. this is the best deal youll find. For the mg42 AA tripod.this guys got a bunch of them, hes just trying to make it look like hes a private indiviual with just one.

I passed on many cheap ones thinking so what if it cost me 50$ more a couple years down the road...i was so wrong i just grabbed an mg3 tripod to avoid the same thing happening again...

I got my mg3 on gunbroker aswell .showed up cracked and broken behind the sight mount.. i just removed the mount and have to have it welded. Hope you make out better than me.

The mg3 is a cool setup and the AA is nice cause its from a standing position.

That's s good price on the GB auction. I and a buddy each bought one from APEX for 280 a few weeks ago. It was in good shape. Of course we got ours for BRP U9s with spade grips

Thanks guys! I think I found one in Germany and customs there said I should be good to bring one back with me. Now I need to find out if it will fit in a Pelican 1750 case with no foam!

Can anyone help me out?

My contact in germany said they are export controlled...not to start internet rumor or anything.. just what i am going with.

The two main seller on GB ship rom the surrounding areas ot directly from germany.
Also one of the two sellers referes to sending the money either paypal or to his "good friend" in the states.

I cant confirm or deny the legally but saving a hundred buck wasnt worth landing in hot water.

The AA tripods or great. Ive got 3 of those. 2 for use one as an investment.

I just bought one from Apex not too long ago, it was in great shape.  I've been looking for a while.

I found one in Europe, too, but they wouldn't ship.  I think they'll cash and carry if you're in the store, but they won't export.

I got a verbal go ahead from German/U.S. custom.  I'm having a friend in Germany hold until I arrive. I kept the custom agents names and contact info so calls can be made if things go south.
