Looking to jump into the 416 game and looking at the 416D SF on GB. Any insight before I take the plunge. This would be my 2nd HK, 1st is a SP5.

Thanks

Are you a class 3?

Only 9-18 sf variants in the wild.  Be prepared to pay 12-20k for a legit gun.


Way to much for what it is, unless you are a collector.

YMMV.

Be prepared for it to not be a legit gun.

(Like seriously have a contingency plan to deal with that possibility upon receipt, if you commit to purchasing one).

I'd want to see a chain of custody or something. Have expert knowledge to verify its authenticity.

Unscrupulous guys will clone serial numbers for that kind of cheddar. That's not illegal for a homemade Title I firearm (currently).

Once it's NFA registered and becomes a Title II firearm, the original NFA registration form shows its pedigree. They're available (redacted) from ATF via FOIA request, but it takes months to get a copy. The seller should be able to provide its history, or at least the form they received it on.

Think 416 parts kit + MR556 semi parts + really perfect clone receiver from an 80% lower.
I'd have to know it wasn't that. 10k(+) isn't parts gun money.

If this guy isn't a crypto billionaire I was going to accuse him of using his dads account because the starting bid on the gun in question is 85K. So call me dubious.

$$$$$$$$$ Lol

Will be July 1

The gun I was looking at sold for 10k. Now looking for a complete upper that’s on GB, Does it matter if the barrel and bolt date code don’t match the upper’s?

That’s my understanding is that they were purchased from a LE agency. Sounds like they might have too much baggage for me.

They usually don't match.

Thanks - didn’t realize that

That seller always lists things at absurd prices. I’ve never seen him list anything that wasn’t at WTF pricing.

And, the example he is selling will not be allowed on the registry if you did a title 1 transfer of the lower. That is a dealer sample and never “officially used.” ATF has taken the position the import exemptions cannot be used to enter otherwise non-importable items into ordinary commerce. They will however allow LEO to sell surplus weapons.
