I was looking for a second hand price I dont know what to offer theres 7 30 round clips, the Acog I couldent find anyone in Ireland selling the sand brown model with the red dot on top, quick release base and flight case but in the US as we all know is cheper its $1700 and in Germany its 2000 euro the single point sling is $160 flash hider and threading maybe another 200 theres no problim with the garda and hes not pushed about selling it so can any one tell me a fair but good ofer to make ???

Lads would you not consider an AR varient. Cheaper & easier to customise. Plus there's a mountain of bits & bobs available for them. If you spec. one right you'll have a fantastic gun.

I still didint work out a deal with that guy re the sig 551 so Im looking at an AR type tell me where you get the Acog with the dotcor optic on to for 1200 euro every one I say that to just laugh, Are ye winding me up or can some one tell me ?????

macnas

Here's one for €1350

harly1516

Thanks but there the older models they dont compare to this its what Im after and about 1700 from usa Im told they havent started shiping these models to europe yet can any one tell me diffrent ???

packas

Have you considered as a alternative:-

Leupold Mark 4 1.5-5x20mm MR/T M2 in a nice La Rue SRP mount
or
Leupold Mark 4 1-3x14mm CQ/T

With either of the above you could then get a nice offset rail to mount the dot sight at an angle either on the left or right hand side.

Pat.

Thanks Packas the leupold scopes are really nice I think it might be a case of having to go down that line as it looks like the Acog is out its a pity there really nice but know one seems to be able to point as to where to get one thanks any how

hi lads, has anyone ever tried for a cert for such a rifle?

if so, did you have much hassle?

could you use this for hunting and target?

Murph,
seeing thats a 5.56/223.You could hunt with it.Just foxes and bunnies tho.

I know everyone sings its praise as a fox round, but isn't it a little overkill for the likkle bunnies?
