Transferring as a DD though... ugh. I saw it's a TRW, but what is the engraving under that... Summit Ordnance in Clinton OH? What's up with that? Also, the receiver looks good (meaning original C&R TRW) but the barrel does not look like a correct Vietnam era unit. Nothing wrong with it of course, just looks post war mf.

StrangeRanger Posted December 27, 2022 Author Report Share Posted December 27, 2022 Summit Ordnance is an 07 SOT named James Coots. He is well known here locally primarily as an M60 guy. I assume that the receiver is a rewat/reman of the original TRW and engraved accordingly, in which case it is not a C&R. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Upon closer examination the barrel appears to be genuine USGI! Note "P" proof mark on top, by barrel lug. It may have been refinished, but I'm pretty certain the barrel is a good one.

I guess my Kanaar C&R was a great deal at $7,500! Thanks for the update... good news for all of us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StrangeRanger Posted January 10, 2023 Author Report Share Posted January 10, 2023 (edited) Both Keystone and Sienna Armory both seem to get WAY above market price for their gun sales. There has been a LOT of speculation as to why, none of it flattering. Edited January 10, 2023 by StrangeRanger typo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rekraps Posted January 11, 2023 Report Share Posted January 11, 2023 It does seem that the selling price was quite a jump from what the market was paying... then again, as and as been said many times on this forum, all it takes is one or two interested parties and the bids go crazy. Still, the result is good for us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rekraps Posted January 11, 2023 Report Share Posted January 11, 2023 And it was a good looking gun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
