I would be surprised grasshopper that uncle zeek paid 34K for the weapons. Most likely they are dealer samples or in the dealer vernacular, "demo's" which Class 3's can get to use to sell to PD's, etc. I could be wrong however. Been out of that world for a few years...:) Now us poor average non dealer types will probably pay more than 25K for a M16A2...and that's probably on the low end nowadays.
Just gotta find a Class 3 who is giving up his SOT and selling off his post-86 machine guns. And yes, these are very useful as sales samples for local LE Nice! Is that the one I sold you? Well, the upper is.

Ammo bill can sky rocket with one fun filled range trip. Could be a character builder though in that it can help you strengthen your will power.

Well unclezeek one thing I did learn while being in the class 3 world about LE's is that they like the latest "stuff"...:) Get a dealer sample of the new Sig that the military is switching too...bet the pd's would like those...:) Used to be H&K MP5's were the hot item. Don't know if they still are...probably not since they are "old" now but they were, and undoubtedly still are, a very good weapon to shoot. Now just convince your local PD to buy a Dillion gatling gun....:)

Well, I can't afford the Sig Spear yet ... heh, I can't even afford the semi-auto SBR version right now. Those two M16's cost me less than $900 apiece (including the cost of the AR's I bought from THF/TFF classified for uppers). If/when I get any LE orders, I can build them for a bit less than that, but I'll have to pay ITAR fees then, so I don't want to make any of my own unless I'm certain of sales. Have a couple of HK autosear trigger groups on the way as well so I can set up MP5 or other HK variants.

I do know the LE's around here favor the short barrel M16 variants. 11.5 inch or so....easier to maneuver in buildings and such. Only seen a couple of HK MP5's here. Probably more but the trend is to the short barrel M16 style rifles it seems. I always preferred the HK MP5 as it was accurate and easy to control. And the short barreled rifles are LOUD when you shoot them...:) A suppressed MP5 would be my ideal choice. I think they made one called the MP5SD that had an integral suppressor. No need to advertise exactly where you are when "hunting" the bad guys...:)

Not to worry, when, not if the fight starts, there will be some battle field pickups readily available.
