Not sure I'd ever be that hardcore of a collector to pay $12k for an older semi-auto.

Seems a little pricey for an updated Chauchat.

besides it's fugly. For me, rarity is not the the sole factor in collecting

 

[ericlosh]

it would be neat as hell to have, but i think id prefer the 11k

If I had the money, It would be in my collection. They actually are reliable weapons. But the novelty is what I like about it. Only a couple hundred imported max, and this guy had EVERYTHING with it, including extra original mags! Nice!

Legend has it that there are only 5-10 in the US.

Semi-auto.. no thanks.

Now if it was FA, hail yiss.

Im curious to know what else he has tucked in has safe that hasnt been out in 20 years

 

[JadeRaven]

I have heard various figures for numbers actually imported to the US: 300, 100, 51 or just a handful.

I would imagine it's more than just a handful unless these same guns are repeatedly transferred around.

I would buy one if I was a multimillionaire and just finished playing Metal Gear Solid. It's a cool gun. But otherwise, I'll take a couple few AUGs or Tavors, or one of such and the cash balance.

11k would buy a nice .50 BMG

Just sayin'

11k would buy a nice .50 BMG

And another 11k would buy you 100 rounds.

Semi auto one maybe. Class 3? no way.

11k would buy a nice .50 BMG

is that a cash offer? scopes not included....but I will throw in a 100 rounds

 

[DS727]

Why do they use those bipods that look like leftover pieces of a childs Erector set?

 

[bakerman]

the little bipods used on most rifles...well it does weigh 3-4 times as much as those and well it also recoils a little more also But me thinking, that had a hint of sarcasm in it, lol

 

[DS727]

It did have just a hint of sarcasm, but seriously, I'm about substance AND STYLE.

 

[bakerman]

Oh I agree wholeheartedly
Though when it comes military arms, I can appreciate the utilitarian nature of some...which is the case of 82A1, to me it just says, no frills badassness
