He bought it at a large Class 3 auction.  He said that it was a shooter, so it isn't brand new, but it was in overall good shape.

If you have the money, now is the time to get into some Class 3 stuff.  Prices have dropped.

You've wanted a M60 for sometime, are you going to keep it our turn around and sell it?


I'm planning on keeping it. I know I could make some money on it, but I'd barely make enough if I sell it to replace it with another transferable M60. Heck, E1 RIA are going for $25k in like new condition.
