  1. What is your target price for an AR180 20 rounder?
  2. Good luck. Expect to pay ~$3K for one.
  3. I have an original German made HK 21 available. Here are some pics:
  4. WARNING HK21 WARNING HK21 WARNING HK21 WARNING As Mike Todd pointed out above, the recoil of an HK21 is extreme. About ten years ago while shooting a short burst from my HK21, the retina on my right eye detached. I needed emergency retina surgery to not permanently lose sight in my right eye. And then six months later I needed cataract surgery in that eye. The surgeons and eye doctors I encountered during this saga all stated that heavy recoil shoulder fired weapons shake you head violently and should be avoided at all cost. This is especially true if the shooter is near sighted. Be warned!
  5. Hmm. I've run thousands or rounds of Romy 8mm ammo though my Vickers and it ran perfectly. Now this was the Romanian stuff that became available 10+ years ago. I cannot speak of the current stuff. A friend was so impressed with this older Romy stuff, he bought 2.5 million rounds of it. As an aside, there was an older Polish gentleman who was the range master at a now closed Austin rifle range I frequented. He fought in the Polish resistance during WWII. He always advised those of us running MG34s to wax our steel cased ammo using carnauba past wax . That's what I did using SC-Johnson Paste Floor Wax.
  6. Let me look around. I'm sure I have a couple MP5 retractable stocks and maybe a HK33 one too somewhere around here.
  7. I found mine on eGhey from a seller in Paris. You never know what those Frenchies dig up.
  8. I have two Post Sample belt guns that are just sitting here collecting dust. The first is a DOT 44 MG34. Here is one of Mongo's videos of it running. Look 1:41 to watch it. The second Postie is a real 1968 HK21. I got it to cut up for a parts kit, but just couldn't do it.
  9. And your target price is?
  10. I've had my Erb tube MP40 for 20 years. It has always run perfectly no matter what I feed it. You must have a magazine loader to load the magazines. Prices on real WWII magazines and loaders have climbed in recent years, but they are well built and should last a lifetime.
  11. For those who aren't aware, here is what the OP is looking for: Now, ain't that pretty?
  12. What is your realistic budget?
  13. If you are a Texas resident and the business you bought it from is also in Texas, you paid Texas sales tax. At 8.25%, your $8000 purchase cost you an extra $660.
  14. I have seen 639s with two types of markings. The first type has no markings other than a s/n with the format of SU4790XXX as is shown in the post above: I have also seen them with the Colt's name and address added: The must have registered and engraved at different times.
  15. I do not know why only 'some were transferrable'. Maybe it was one of Colt's stipulations to their distributors. Back in '75 a friend tried to purchase an M16A1 from Colt. He was an FFL and also sold machineguns. Colt would not sell him one unless he send them a copy of a purchase order from a law enforcement agency. There is a picture of 639 s/n 4790002 on gunboards dot com. Look here https://forums.gunboards.com/showthread.php?1100039-I-Think-I-Have-a-Colt-Addiction Go down to post #54 to view it.
  16. Does anybody know where I can find one?
  17. From experience, always include a copy of the Form 3/4 because BATFE may not have the correct information on file. This is especially true for anything registered 20+ years ago. Their record keeping is not the best.
  18. Also, include a copy of your Form 3/4.
  19. Only if it is yours already and have the BATF paperwork to prove it.
  20. MGM guns have property engravings. Dolf sold his to a friend of his a couple years ago. I believe it is in New Mexico.
