$15,000
Unless it has a new receiver and not just the side plate, it could be considered a converted-auto.
Nonetheless, I want one.
there is no point with 5 rnd belts... especially at $15,000... That is more than my car cost me by about $2,000.
i guess but then what is the point of paying $15,000 for that when you get an SKS for $200? shoots same amount of rounds per mag
Fires from a closed bolt, the right side plate, bolt and trigger groups have been redesigned. Major operating parts have been dimensionally changed to prevent interchanging with full-auto parts. In short it is manufactured as a semi-auto from the start.
Unfortunately you have to think like the RCMP here.
They will take the right side plate off and swap out the semi parts with full-auto ones. If it goes all happy-trigger it's a no-go, goes click or semi only, good-to-go. This is pretty much what they do now to all ex-military arm submissions.
If the whole receiver is newly made from scratch and full auto parts won't fit there is no reason it shouldn't be approved.
Danmit Jim... Someone needs to come up with a 10 RD pistol belt for that thing.Lol
