I sent an email asking how much. Got this response.

Hello,


Thanks for the mail,My HK MP5 is still available and its in a perfect condition, Am selling it at a cheaper prize ($3,100) because i just got some newer Riffles and need to sell this one off. I am located in Texas, Where are you located?

Firearm is on a Form 4 in Missouri, first tax



I am located in Texas




seem legit as a nigerian used car salesman.

Or a guy named bob calling from India who says he's with Microsoft customer service.

Run. Run like the wind.

[coppertales]

Nice to have. I would do a face to face on it though....chris

I am in Texas, where is it? I have the money also and a class 3 dealer to help me with it...

[N/A]

$3,100 for a legal, select fire MP5 sounds pretty damn cheap...pardon my skepticism.

[El Duce]

I thought that it was pretty funny. I asked the guy for a copy of his form. Funny as he hasn't gotten back to me.....

[El Duce]

Just checked email. Responded.


My HK MP5 is $3,100, let me know if you are ready to buy it so that i can make a preparation on how you can get it.



Send me your Cell Number.


(he did provided me with a cell number. 512 area code.

[Gunner1558]

Let me know if you don't jump at this one.

I am always in the market for a selective fire riffle at a good prize.

[Helen Keller]

lol, ask him if its factory, if not. who did the conversion

[El Duce]

I did ask him why the gun is in Missouri, and he is in Texas.

You know the old adage. If it is too good to be true....IF he gets back to me, I will ask for his SOT dealer number. EVEN if it was legit...I am sure that ANY MG dealer would know that the price is WAY too good. I don't think that you could get a post sample for that price.

Worse, he claims to be in Texas, but the gun is registered in Missouri and the "Location" on the ad is Morgantown, West Virginia.

[Helen Keller]

Even SBR HK series are over $3K easy now.

[Partisan1983]

I don't think that you could get a post sample for that price.

A new dealer sample is much,MUCH cheaper than that.

[Schuetzenman]

I smell serious scam here.

the words 'armslist' sound off like limburger cheese.

[Altarboy]

Smells funny Bro.

[1 Patriot-of-many]

Last I checked they went for well over 10K.

Well over the $20K mark in most cases now.

Reg. Sear packs are $12K+ too.

[El Duce]

Got this email while at work. Guy does not use sentences well. Or spell that great either.

Sorry should have let you know earlier was in WV for a business appointment think will get red of local guns,But back home in,TX..if you don't mind can ship it to your FFL Dealer please let me know your through...

[El Duce]

I think that for shits and giggles. I will ask his FFL to call mine. You know to verify...

[Richard Simmons]

As weird and unlikely as this seems to be playing out if it ends up a legit deal you will have made the NFA score of the century.

[El Duce]

For giggles. I clicked on the number that he sent. It was a Skype number. I tired to call it, and it was a google number.

[coppertales]

I ran this by my FA dealer. Yep, scam. Going price for one of these is 31000.....chris
