Remove that goofy scope, and we got a deal.
Where at?

Replicas are prohib here I'm pretty sure.

Edit: I didn't read the fully functional part. It would be a copy not a replica.

I like it a lot! Very cool, but at $1000 USD, you'd probably be looking to spend $1500 CAD at least for one of these. But then again, what's an original Springfield A4 worth?

 

[maxinumarmor]

You can get them with the M84 scope for $1250

I wounder how long before someone will buys one and re-sell it as the "real thing".

I've been looking at the A3 version, though I feel its a bit pricey for something I can't handle/look at first

Everything on the rifle is clearly marked as "Gibbs", they deliberately did not replicate any of the origional markings to avoid this sort of thing. So you could only sell it as the real deal to someone who knows nothing about 1903A4 sniper rifles. Got a pretty decent review in Shotgun News, just took a look for the issue it was in but I don't feel like leafing through a big stack of gun magazines to find the right one. Mind you, there are worse ways to spend a Monday night...

Love the looks but for me personally I would just save up and get the real deal. Its dam cool but not 1000 dollar cool

Bingo...I was thinking the same thing.

30-06 is not very plentiful these days.
