I have 5 DEWATS on form 5's and they were transferred years before efile. Would I have to file paper form 1's to REWAT them? What are the times averaging currently on paper form 1's? Browning1917a1 Brian

M1a1 Thompson, Japanese type 92, Group Industries BAR looked decent to me.

I will take the Thompson kit. Browning1917a1 Brian

I will take 2 bags of the Beretta magazines for $180. I will message you. Browning1917a1 Brian

I have seen a number of dewats sell this year at different auctions. I own 5 dewats that I hope to rewat when I retire. I have bought at about 30% below market. Please be aware that all dewats are not dewatted equally. Some are simple rewats with others being major rebuilds. Browning1917a1 Brian

Another route is dewats. If you have the ability to work on firearms, you can buy historical military firearms at a discount. Get your C&R license for $30 for 3 years and have WWI & WWII weapons sent directly to your home. More of a hunt for the weapon and parts, but I enjoy all the challenges. If you are looking for investment, or quick sells, this may not be for you. A percentage of buyers will not consider a rewatted weapon no matter how well it runs. I own quite a few.

Parts are more available for the type 99 vs 96, 11 & 92. I currently have a dewat 99 with lots of parts and caliber conversions. Japanese LMG's DEWATS come up for sale and the parts to make them work on a form 1 are in demand. 7k to 10k depending on condition for extras. The LMG has too many factors, 7k to 20k. There are poor welded together receivers to high quality and cared for weapons. Browning1917a1 Brian

The bottom receiver has the serial number that is on both my Chauchats form 4's along with the manufacturer's name. Browning1917a1 Brian

I will take them. Do you have any type 11 parts left? Brian Browning1917a1

Are they original Japanese stripper clips for 6.5mm Japanese rounds or another countries that worked in your type 11? Brian Browning1917a1

Thank you!

I can help out by selling you 1 of my 3 for $750 plus shipping. Let me know if you are interested. Brian Browning1917a1

Colt Chopper, that is priceless information. I need to do it on my 16. Most are C&R, but the ones that aren't, I will have a possible date of manufacture for when it will qualify as C&R. Brian Browning1917a1

I have a SP1 that was manufactured into a machine gun before the 1986 ban. 1. Is it legal to put any length barrel upper since it is already NFA stamped as a machine gun? My understanding is it does not need to be registered as a short barrel rifle since it is already stamped as a machine gun. Thank you for sharing your knowledge. Brian Browning1917a1

I have bought a number 99, 96 and type 11 kits in the past. All 3 have shoulder stocks. A magazine included for 96 or 99 or a hopper for a type 11 makes a big difference in value. Make sure all the bolt parts are with it, missing bolt parts on a type 11 are extremely hard to come by, easier on 96 and better on 99 from my experience. Scopes, any type of leather goods or canvas cases are valuable. Just in case it has extras and if you are not aware. Good luck! Brian

I never been to one of these, but it does sound interesting. Is it simply setting up and shooting targets for a score, or are you running through a course of some type? If you have a link to video of yours, or one like yours, that would be great. Brian

Exactly 7 months September 26 to April 25th. Brian

MCC/Guncraft that was located in Dallas, Texas. Nice professional stamping and general conversation with little noticeable wear. I bought it to shoot.

I paid 25k for a very nice converted SP1 in August. M16's in general seemed to have had a big run up the past few years.

Is this at your business in Collin County where I can look at it? Brian

I will take the Reising 50 stock for $75 shipped.

Please send me a message with your information to send a check to you for 6 mg34 belts at $80 plus shipping to 75098. Thank you Brian

I hoped the ZB-26 would go for more. I own its twin and thought about selling if the auctioned one had sold for the high estimate of 40k plus buyers fee.

1. How many cans of Romanian 7.92x57 do you have for sale? 2. Are the rounds the red sealed bullet and primer in steel cases from the 1970's? Brian
