Great *original* 2nd model FG42 video

Beyond looking awesome, the engineering and design of the FG42 is something to behold. I'll likely never get to handle one (or a replica) in person, but I appreciate seeing the videos. I definitely learn something new from them all the time.
 
$3750 for an M6 Scout... mother of GOD

I think that with an auction like RIA, which gets (inter)national coverage, for any items that have general appeal, like the FG42, you're competing against some folks who have more money than they know what to do with, and as a result, simply want a firearm regardless of how much it ends up costing. Unless you're in that rarified group, you're essentially priced out of purchasing anything that has widespread coverage.

Interestingly, the Luftwaffe M30 Drilling went for $8000 and the case separately for $2250. Compare that to the bubba'd one we were recently remarking on and the OP of that rifle didn't do too badly.
