Why do you need 30 when the buy it now is 25k? Full auto with 15rd mags would be lame.

Extra 5k so he can buy a box of steel case 223 to shoot and a pmag to put it in.

You and me both bro but those suckers are expensive to feed!

Also as far as the m16 the extra 5 grand would cover the transfer & a shit ton of ammo.

That dealer must have a good connect with his examiner.

Fuck it, grind a piece of steel into a jerry rigged "lightning link" like m....oh i mean. Follow the law and go to church.

The above is wholly a joke. Not serious at all.

The gun is being brokered by Frank. Notice the disclaimer about "from our customers inventory" So he is probably quoting the transfer time to the FFL/SOT dealer of your choice, not the F4 transfer to you.

I still think he is a bit optimistic on his timeline for a civilian (assuming the current owner isnt a dealer) to SOT dealer transfer but then again I had a MG go on a tax paid Form 4 (civilian) to my dealer about 6 months ago that took right at 6 weeks. Granted I have been waiting about 5 months for the F4 from my dealer to me, ever since then.

All that said he is probably being a bit disingenuous about the total timeframe...i.e. once you wait "8 weeks" for it to get to your dealer you are in store for another 6 to 7 month wait before you take it home.

That M16 is most likley not all original. Based on the A2 fH and anti walk pins, I would bet it was turned into a FA M4 type rifle. Then pieced back to near original by someone recently. Just MHO

And to the poster up above who thinks 200 will buy a stamp to make a rifle FA? 1985 called and wants its laws back!

I wouldn't pay more than $15K for that rifle, but what do I know?

I am jealous you guys can own those times of firearms.

I would be broke if I could own them though.

I can't tell you how many times I've looked at that auction and almost said fuck it and went for it...but for lack of a better term I can't bring myself to pull the trigger lol...

I would rather own a conversion for the money.

First thing I'd do is install a short upper and collapsible stock.

I wouldnt buy that one unless you want to continue it's life as an unfired safe queen. Once you pull the trigger and make it "unfired" it becomes a 45K to 50K gun at best assuming it is a factory SACO/Maremont receiver.

RIA converted E4s can still be had in the upper 30s to low 40s. My RIA E4 runs and runs and runs. No real need to pay $75K for a M60E4 unless you really just want it as an investment or safe queen you never shoot.

That is the advice I was given by a friend who knows about that stuff as well! That is my hesitation...yea great investment for sure...but if I'm gonna spend the money for full auto then I wanna shoot it haha! But thanks for the advice!
