I am now the proud new owner of this carbine, now for the hard part . The transfer of the license apparently have some restriction, it is not as straight forward as I thought. I'll keep you guys posted as I go along in the process. To answer some of the earlier questions of Class111Gunsmith , the fire control has Full Auto & the Flash hider is an A1 Birdcage. image.jpgimage.jpg
Thanks SKP, this purchase was just by chance, so it wouldn't reflect market price . My cousin & I were at his gun club when a Batchmate of his in the Army mentioned to my cousin that he needed to sell his carbine. Because he needed a quick sale I got it for $2000 . It includes also the original army sling, bayonet & complete cleaning kit,12 Mags & 1000 rounds of ammo. Guns here cost 100 percent more than the U.S. . A brand new plain Sig P226 would cost $1,900 , they have suspended the sale of AR's & AK's or same class of rifles due to some anomalies with quite a few licensed rifles ending up in the hands of insurgents in the southern islands.

They used bogus individuals , some of the identities from dead people . A lot of individuals
are now being prosecuted for the scam.

I'm only relying on what the Original owner is saying, he said he sent it back to the armory to have it checked due to some cycling problems & the information passed on was that they change the barrel . Without disassembling the gun ,how do You measure the barrel. I'm a new enthusiast (rookie) to owning rifles so bear with me.

As I said it was only my good luck being at the right place at the right time. The second hand market is very limited but
brand new one's are definitely double than what it is in the U.S. A friend of mine bought a Mosberg-Maverick 12gauge
24 inch barreled Shotgun for $425. He was also looking at CZ Vz 858 (7.62) at $ 1,300. But as I said in an earlier post ,sale of rifles in this category has been suspended.
