IIRC they stopped making them to get other projects roling. so, if you find one it will be a supply/demand thing and may not be in line with what you think is fair.

I ordered from this guy before, if you can find someone to do an FFL transfer it'll be alot cheaper.

I can tell ya this much, the dealer in that link is making a whoping $10 off that rifle.
If you have a good honest gun shop locally, buy from them. $725 is not out of hand for that rifle and remember, dealer cost is just that, dealer cost. He has to make money to stay in business. You can prob do a little better but we are only talking $20 or so.

My brother bought two of those SA-M5's from Deerslayer, one of them is the one he gave me. Deerslayer is a good guy to deal with, we're trying to figure out how to get the money for that last one, LOL ...
 EDIT: I see he has a couple left over there ... |

I wanna say they were $689 with a 30 round clear mag in "no ban" configuration with scope rail. He has four for sale over there, 2 at $649 and 2 at $689. Look at them all before buying, I think those $649 ones don't have a scope rail. Talk to him about payment because PayPal was giving him a hassle because he's a "gun" dealer ... Edit: jnewt and Templar can tell you a lot more than I'll ever know about prices and what things should go for ...

Yeah, that guy is selling at damn near dealer cost. I hope he has a second job.

Until a few minutes ago he had one, complete with the side rail, listed on Gunbroker for $679. Couldn't pass on such a great deal.

Badass, you scooped it up, eh ... The one I have looks to be awsome but all my ammo is for my 7.62x39 and I just ordered a bunch of parts from K-Var so I have to wait to shoot the SA M-5 ...

I've been drooling over this model for at least a year. Then the AWB expired and inched me a bit closer to breaking out the cash. Then I remember Templar saying awhile back that they stopped current production on this model - a few more inches closer. Then the barrel ban - moved me at least a foot closer to getting off my ass and buying. The final straw was Arsenal announcing increase in prices - figured this model (even though out of production) would only go up further. I can only resist so much for so long - I was overcome by logic.
And on top of it all - Hellva lot of rifle for the price BTW - I believe Deerslayer has a few more of these still available on auctionarms |

I'm gonna make you cry. I bought a NIB one off of the EE for $550, inlcuding 9 brand new, never inserted mags
 ! They all still had the "Made in Bulgaria" stickers on them... and yes it is one heck of a rifle.

Oh Oh Oh, I just found 5.56x45 brass, powder and bullets in my reloading gear, enough to for at least 1000 rounds. I had it all packed away in my Y2K stash, I knew I had the dies but I forgot about the rest. Looks like I have a project for the weekend ...

Geez, It's been so long I can't remember where I stashed away my dies.
Always enjoyed reloading - well at least the ultimate results of reloading. Just been lazy lately shooting Federal. |

I think I remember the posting on EE of that unbelievable deal. I've also seen your posts on other sites of the same thing. |
