The gunbroker seller of the bayonets I bought still hasn’t called me for credit card payment. I guess he doesn’t want to get paid

We bought these for $229-239 shipped with a hard plastic case. Nobody is trying to say these are as valuable as a WW1/2 trench gun. View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted:

My FFL offered me $500 on the spot for the folder when I picked it up.
He told me straight up he can sell a lot more giving it a bit time. |

I know this is a long shot, but if anyone wants to sell one, please let me know. I'll even pay a "reasonable" premium to get one.

so im assuming the fixed stock ones are going to be used more is it a good idea to maybe replace the mag spring or just leave it and maybe it will function fine?

That extra weight from the bayo adapter might make the gun swing and hold steady like a longer barreled gun. With that extra capacity, I think it would make a great swamp bear gun.
Mine fixed stock is on the delivery truck circling my FFL waiting for them to open (at noon). |

Quoted:
Springs don't wear by age, but by use. If the gun doesn't look like it's been used a ton, I wouldn't worry about. View Quote Just thought maybe from being potentially loaded and and unloaded several times But then again the fixed stock ones will probably just have been carried alot and shot little |

This topic has me wondering.
Is the name on the order, invoice, credit card, a legal basis for “ownership” in the sense that it would legally have to be transferred to that person on a 4473 before it could be sold or gifted? If I ordered a gun to my FFL, decided I didn’t want it but my buddy did, and he paid me $500, could he go to the FFL and do the 4473 for himself? |

Finally got to pick mine up. Definitely not the cherry gun some of y'all got. Biggest issue is a screw missing out of the bayonet lug.

Quoted: I hate to be all technical but you are wrong. If they are gifts its not a straw purchase as ruled by the supreme court. However if you are buying them for someone else and they will buy them from you or gave you money for the purchase then its a straw purchase and illegal under federal law. The guy basically admitted to a felony. View Quote |

That bayo screw was probably specially made and will be difficult to find a replacement for at even Ace Hardware. Probably have to find the thread pitch with a thread measurement tool and then see if any places that sell gunsmithing screws has it (like Brownells).

Mine had surface rust all through the inside, including inside the mag tube and extension and the inside of the bayonet mount. Likely from use in a very damp environment. Katrina maybe? Anyway, I'm not disappointed for the price. I bought it intending to fire it some, and if I had got a cherry I don't think I would want to. |

Can anyone point me to some folders that have already sold or are for sale? (Not an EE post!, just looking for price points)

It would seem that’s probably common, but I’m wondering if it’s a regulation/law or just a store policy. You could argue that maybe the person that ordered it is not eligible for the firearm and the person doing the 4473 is doing a straw purchase, but if the person that ordered it changed their mine before the transfer and someone else bought it from them while it’s at the shop, I’d the first person did the 4473, they would have to lie on question 1. Idk. View Quote Now having said that I can assure you of this from experience... If you call the ATF 3 times to ask them this question it is very likely that you will get 4 different answers. |

Picked up my fixed stock and I am happy. No rust on the metal, a few wear marks. The stock is a little more beat up, nothing major, no missing parts. I will post pics this evening. SSN S37XXXXV

Mine is sitting at my dealer as of 10 minutes ago can’t go pick it up for another three hours now as I’ve got a few other things going. The wait is killing me
