What's the story, are you just bragging or did you just drop $75k +/- on 3x RDIAS?

Just fun and no I did not spend $75K. Did pick one up recently, but the other 2 I have had a while, so got them cheap.

That's a lot of $$ right there :-)

I wish I could convince myself to sell a large portion of my collection and get one but I'd never use it as I'd be too scared of damaging it.  My AI AE is enough money in one gun for me.

FWIW I was worried about damaging my RR and or not using it enough to justify the price, but Since I bought it two years ago I haven't shot another gun in my collection aside from my CCW.

As far as selling your collection I went with the mentality that I would rather have 1 top of the line M16 than a dozen mid grade AR15s. You can only fire one gun at a time and the additional capability and Fun at the range is well worth it. Oh and then the investment value, sure it will cost you say $20k but unlike a well kept firearm which holds its value you can expect a 10% increase yearly.

Agreed. Once you own FA firearms everything else becomes a bit boring to shoot. They are WELL worth the entry price. Renegade, is the form-1 sear the one with the narrower wall thickness on its right side?

I have a Colt M16, AR15 model 614, DLO HK frame, and Fleming H sear. Would love a DIAS, but the recent H sear purchase means that is not likely to happen any time soon.

One listed on sturm, but I'm fairly certain you might have already seen it...you're fairly active searching stuff out.  Price seems reasonable...no idea if its steel or not though.

Well yea, we can all wish. I paid 14 and 17 for my first two.  Either way, they'll just keep going up and up and up. Could have bought a DLO box for 17k like two years ago and didn't. Oh well. Now, if there's a machine gun for sale, and I want it, I just buy it. No regrets that way haha.

I just bought two DLO boxes for a very fair price last week. Factory internals all the way.



Now onto the search for hosts.










I really wish I could have bid on that HK94 that went for $3000 on GB. I got busy at work and forgot to bid. When I heard it went for $3000, I became sick.

I've heard that from everyone that has seen it.  I feel really lucky I got them. I was looking for AWB HK53 mags on gunbroker for months, and found a pair of these instead one day.  I offered the guy $80 for the pair, and he took it.  $40/mag isn't bad for steel mags from the AWB era I figure.

Because a few guys own them all!   Seems more than a few people that have an RDIAS have multiples.  

Still have no idea why Sandy Hook and the talk of magazine bans got the MG price wagon rolling again, maybe people cashed out their AR15s and bought MGs.   That is what I should have done instead of paying off my school loans with the proceeds.

Anyway, don't be too sure this stuff won't be made worthless one way or the other.  Look at the confederate flag, public opinion sure flipped on a dime.   The same thing will happen to EBRs too one day.  Hopefully after I have left this earth, but it will happen eventually or we will end up in Mad Max times in which case nobody will care about your Form 4.

Its all about having a diversified portfolio, if machine guns are 80% of your net worth, you might want to diversify.   Magazine bans are the biggest risk to the value of our MGs.   People who buy and sell AR15s will be able to keep their magazines under the table for the SHTF scenario.    But if you do an MG transfer, the law will be all over your ass trying to sniff them out.
