    No arguments here. But for that kind of money I'd get a new Tacoma.

    The Tacoma will depreciate the minute you drive off the lot. A registered receiver Colt's M16 will appreciate as years go by.

    If I ever win the lotto I can guarantee that the ATF WILL be paying me a visit after I go through the first part of my wish list.

    Yep. Trust me. I've dabbled in the car collection scene enough. Some appreciate, but most plumit.

    This is true. But convincing the missus that we need a machine gun would be near impossible.

    Don't tell the Mrs? That's what I do. She doesn't ask.....no need to know.

    Things like the M60E6 is just a fancy belt gun. Couldn't cost more than $2,000. The WW2 bring back machine guns are just old crappy $100 surplus guns.........

    Ah, ok. The name of the thread/video said M16, so I was thinking it would be a 20". This would probably then be an M4A1, then?
    Very nice carbine.

    No this came well before the M4 rifles did.

    No. This is an M16 A1 Carbine. There are no transferable M4s.

    If I recall correctly, colt remanufactured some transferable 16s into 4s. This was back before the atf stopped that practice.
