Honestly. Good for them if they can get it but MG's really don't do anything for me. Even at 4000, you can get a much nicer rifle, i.e loaded SR15 or a JP with optics and a can.
Are MG's cool. Yup, are they 10,20,30k cool? Not for me. I am sure some dentist, lawyer, or telecom exec will find it pretty cool and have no issues dropping the coin and good for them. |

Damn it's not even a colt, unless I'm missing something I don't see why this non-colt RR should be worth more than maybe $15-18k. Frank does sell guns for other people so maybe it's just some delusional person who demanded he set the price at $40k

It's a no reserve auction. It will probably sell for closer to $15k.

That will sell for under 20k, nowhere near 40k. Still expensive, but that buy-it-now price is very ambitious. 40k buys you an unfired U.S. property marked M16A2.

One of the local school boards here just recently bought a bunch of surplus M16s from the government for $50 each! I've heard since then, that because of the public outcry over why a school board needs M16s that they've returned them.

They are registered on Form 10's and can only be either (a) returned to .gov, or (b) transferred to the next gov-approved agency on the list. |

I have no problem with the Federal government providing certain things for local governments. Our county got two helicopters for dirt cheap and they've really been a benefit. BUT WTF does a school board, need with FA weapons? |

The school board is not getting the M16A1s, the police department is. |

Yep 40 THOUSAND and doesn't even come with the acog..... How does one get to that price. http://www.gunbroker.com/Auction/ViewItem.aspx?Item=453156658 Update: It went to $10k and did not meet the reserve. It has been relisted with the buy-it-now dropped from the original $40k to a more reasonable (but still too high) $18k. |
