Buy what you want but I didn't like my K or L, plus mags are ridiculously expensive. I much prefer my Steyr MPi.

I have been looking for a while. I even have a want add over on strum. There’s a BNIB MPL on gun broker right now too. Ruben has the best price I have found in a while. BTW, here is my plan for this MPL project… Modernized MPL |

I love my MPK and as soon as I can find my magazine for it I’ll take it out and shoot it some more.

So I ordered an MPL pre may dealer sample AND I ordered a bunch of parts/components to modernize it. Maybe I’m crazy for cutting and welding on a pre may keeper, but it’s going down…

Are Pre-May Keepers further transferable once "kept" after Dealer retires and its in their estate - say to heirs or others?
I too would love an MPL but they only seem to have pre-86 Dealer samples as possible keepers. I keep thinking it might be cheaper to just get the dealers license and buy post-86 DS guns but nothing will be cheaper as I will just spend more .

Quote HistoryQuoted: Are Pre-May Keepers further transferable once "kept" after Dealer retires and its in their estate - say to heirs or others? Once someone has it, it doesn't matter if they remain an FFL/SOT or not. I've heard people say your heir could obtain an FFL/SOT after you die, and still have enough time to inherit any pre-samples willed to them. That's probably true, but obviously it's "safer" if they already hold an FFL at the time of your passing. You could have the business (FFL) in an LLC or a corporation so they inherit it all together. Then it won't matter if there's no FFL at the time of the inheritance. I too would love an MPL but they only seem to have pre-86 Dealer samples as possible keepers.

I’ve found a few REALLY good deals on pre may dealer samples lately. One being an MP5. Regarding the transferable pre may sample question, short answer; no. Long answer, yes. Once a pre may dealer sample, ALWAYS a pre may dealer sample. It can only be transferred to an SOT. Forever. Now you can obtain your SOT for the sole reason to inherit it, but you have to have an SOT to get it. Now what I don’t get is how some pre may samples are on form 4s? But you still have to have an SOT for an approved transfer… |

Quote HistoryQuoted: Now you can obtain your SOT for the sole reason to inherit it, Quote HistoryQuoted: Now you can obtain your SOT for the sole reason to inherit it, That would be (good) news to me. Not that there's any justification requested with an SOT payment by an existing FFL (so perhaps that's what you meant) but if you have no FFL currently, I wouldn't think ATF would allow inheritance to be the sole purpose of the FFL application. ...but you have to have an SOT to get it. Now what I don't get is how some pre may samples are on form 4s? But you still have to have an SOT for an approved transfer Therefore if the transferor no longer holds an SOT, they would transfer to a current SOT using Form 4. Only the transferee needs to currently hold an SOT. It's really not correct to say something is "on" a form. That just happens to be the last form utilized to transfer it. The status of the firearm, the transferor, and the transferee all play a part in determining which form is appropriate for the present transfer. |

The person who has it had a SOT but gave it up (either the SOT or the FFL). Once given up it needs to be transfer as a Form 4 to a SOT. |

I had one, was super excited and it just sucked. Sold it and took a loss.
It was the most boring subgun I’ve shot. |

Low recoil? Sometimes I find the ones with a little more RPM or a little more recoil are actually more enjoyable. Sven Manticore Arms |

This is the second time in this post you’ve said this. I get it. Point is, I have a bunch of other MGs, I don’t need this “one”. At least I won’t take a loss on it. And for what’s it’s worth, I love the way this thing shoots. |

I only took it out a few times, I just remember hating the sights and just slow. Packed it up and marked it cheap. Sad thing was I was excited to get one, heard for years how great they were. I’m glad you like yours, lots of people do. |

Full length rail done! Factory sights cut off, front dive tail filler piece made, TIG welded in and rear spot welds/font welds filled with TIGed silicone bronze filler. 14 damn 8-40 screws countersunk and drilled into receiver (.125 reamed locating pins are being added today). What a pain in the ass it was mapping the rail for centered in slot screw locations! Tolerance stacking/compounding error over 15” was significant. Took some work but got it done. I have a pair of Occam Defense sights that will go on this set up, very low profile (CZ Scorpion copies) that give it a perfect cheek weld…

I had a pre-sample MPK like 20 years ago. Nice SMG - ran perfectly.
