    Oh...and shipping is NOT included, Florida residents add 7% tax (even though sales tax is actually only 6% in this state) and of course...Firearm sales are Final.

    It's hard to be a ACLU hating, philosophically Libertarian, socially liberal, fiscally conservative, scientifically grounded, agnostic, porn admiring gun owner who believes in self determination.

    Are they priced by the half dozen?


    P.S. $ 995,195.00 Who doesn't want to pay close to a million dollars for a Tommy gun? Wow! Are these pesos rather than dollars? I have never seen anything like that.

    I have been looking all over for a Colt 6920 for less than $1800 dollars and I finally found one. At $1795 I can't believe my luck.

    Maybe he hasn't updated the site since November 2008?

    Then it occured to me .. . maybe they are "in the shop window" but not really for sale. Dude gets the appropriate FFL to collect machine guns (post-86) and then sets the prices up so he never moves product . . . but he can buy Post-86 & what is a sample if it doesn't get fired . . . .?

    Just one flaw in your theory.

    1. Those are pre86 dealer samples, not post samples.

    2. You still would need a LE demo letter for each and every post sample you wanted to buy.

    And a lot of dealers use a variation of your idea. They buy a MG for their "inventory" and mark it up say 25% above current market prices. If it never sells, no biggie as it was mostly a personal toy in the first place. If it does sell, no biggie buy another at current market prices and pocket the 25%.

    The only thing that a 500% markup is going to do is guarantee nobody will ever buy anything from you or ever take you seriously. Keep in mind these aren't transferables, so you aren't gonna get a uninformed rich guy to buy one now and then by mistake. Only a FFL/SOT can buy pre86 dealer samples and generally they don't have a half million dollars and if they did they will know that pre samples go for.

    + The dealer gets to keep them after they give up their license since there Pre Sample! That has a bit to do w/ the price also...
