It is a shame they can't just sell the complete, unmolested rifle.

American gun control laws are strange because unlike the gun control in other Western countries gun owners in the US have fought back with effect. The banners have had to make due with restrictions that can fly in the political reality of the day, and these typically are the ones that have minimal effect on the majority of people, or else have less obvious effect up front. Bans on MGs for example, or import restrictions that are not a direct ban on ownership.

In France it is hard to become a gun owner but if you do SBRs and cans are easy to get. I don't think you can get FA but I doubt they have the silly MG receiver rules we have.

Apparently,  These parts sets can be assembled on an M1 Garand receiver which will require a few modifications to accept the new feed system.

Not that I see how in depth the 'few' mods would be.

Something's fucky.

I don't see the muzzle device or the bipod, which really give the BM59 its look.

I really wish I'd bought one of the SA guns back in the 80s.

Tim Shufflin builds superb rifles. I sent him a sad-looking Rack Grade M1 Garand for his "CMP Special" - he reparked the entire rifle, did a trigger job, recrowned the muzzle, and shipped it back to me for $178. I installed it in a USGI stock set I had on-hand, and here's how it looks now:









I plan on having him build me a BM59 soon.

Exciting news is that this .308 rifle parts set is in our warehouse and can be yours! Considered a fabulous rifle with features of ‘ easy take down’ and handling ,that surpass the M1 Garand & M14 ! This is considered the best of the Italian ‘BM’ rifle series and comes complete with bipod and grenade launcher/ Tri-compensator flash hider. Many professional shooters say that the Tri-compensator on this rifle is the best and most effective around! The barrel does not come with the kit, but we should have some new .308 barrels soon! A 20 rd. magazine does come with this kit. There are a number of companies applying a conversion to the Garand receivers to make them BM59 receivers, so having a gun kit built into a firearm is a reality! As a special introductory thank you, we have included a free sling! BM59 ITAL Parts Set

Shuff's Parkerizing and Standard Parts LLC are your friend.  Start with a $400 kit, purchase a $225 new US made barrel from Std Parts, get a stripped Garand receiver for $300 and Tim Shufflin will finish the job (full machining, refinishing and labor) for $725.  That's $1650 total and competes favorably price wise with an M1A.

BM59s are my new favorite since the start of this year.  The tricompensator is extremely effective.  Watch the very limited muzzle rise.

Be careful of pedigree.  Some have been put together in the past with welded receivers.

That's good to know.

It caught my eye because it was unusual, but it was labeled as a "Winchester" instead of an Italian gun.

If x54r were still under $0.15, I would have a pkm built, then shoot it until the front falls off to save $$$ in the long run at $.07 per round savings.

Yeah. I knew about the reinterpretation of the 68 GCA. I'd hoped Sarco had "found" these in their warehouse like they've been known to do in the past.
