That's a Canadian owned one.

Regarding the above link:

The price it was last listed at was in the ballpark of every one that I talked to folks about, lower than most. Every person I talked to with one for sale basically told me they didn't care to sell, but if I offered enough they would consider. Most wouldn't name their selling price, just stated if I offered enough I could have it. Their gun, their rules. A couple never came back to respond after I asked what they wanted for it, a couple did name prices they'd entertain. I'd like to think I bumped into a couple really helpful members though, gave me some solid answers and some advice.

I paid higher than retail for mine, but I knew that going into it. I had a little pile burning a hole in my pocket and felt like going for it.

I will NOT be buying the M60e4 that's on the exchange though, that's waayyy too rich for my blood.

Anyone in for a time share on the 60? LOL

it’s a cool piece but the idea of a semi auto machine gun is blasphemy to me. Takes all the fun out of it.

Pretty sure it's banned by OIC not by FRT

I may be wrong but I think you can only link 5 rounds too?

It would still be fun if you weren't limited by the 5 round rule.....but agreed it would be better yet like a real one.

I would prefer one in the original configuration, sans rails. And if the seller knocked a zero off the back end of the price. Although I did look up what retail on them was at the time of importing, wowza!

Yeah, it arrived yesterday so of course I had to tear it completely apart to see what its all about. I'd read about problems people had with them, but I guess I had to find out for myself. This one is unfired, have to say it feels pretty nice. If only the belt fed configuration was a reality in my world.....

I've read too many books about SEALS in the 60's/70's. This was as close as I could ever get. It'll likely see very light use and then sit in the collection.

The green furniture looks good. After seeding I will have to put a few rounds thru mine.

Hope it goes smoothly for you and you get the weather you need. Pretty dry around saskatoon, well pretty much the whole province.......

Over here southwest of Kindersley we have darn near perfect conditions. We are very fortunate here. Our subsoil moisture has been recharged thanks to the pile of snow this past winter

Oh man... that's a beauty. If you ever get tired of it let me know hahaha
