OUTSTANDING CONDITION HARRINGTON & RICHARDSON REISING MODEL 50 (C&R). H & R M-50 REISING S5066 45ACP MODERN; NFA; C&R Cal. 45ACP. 14" bbl with compensator. Exceeding fine Parkerized finish with 14 finned bbl and corrugated magazine housing. Includes two 12 rnd corrugated mags and orig Nobuckl sling. Standard markings on top of receiver with 3-poistion selector for safe, semi-auto, and full-auto. 6-slot muzzle compensator. The Reising M-50 machine gun was a substitute weapon for the Thompson machine gun in the Pacific Theater, when insufficient Thompsons were available to equip Marine Corps units. It also saws widespread use by Police Departments. Many of the earlier versions which accepted only the smaller capacity mags, were later converted with smooth mag housing which would accept the higher capacity, slab-sided mags. Firing mechanism moves smoothly when operated by hand, this weapon appears fully functional. [b]This is a National Firearms Act item and requires BATF approval prior to transfer.[/b] This weapon is fully transferable on an ATF form 3 or form 4 as Curio & Relic eligible. PROVENANCE: From the estate collection of noted discerning firearms enthusiast, Donald W. Dix, Jr. CONDITION: Overall, appearance and finish is simply outstanding. Near perfect Parkerized finish with a couple of very light scratches on the bbl. Wood is also near excellent with a couple of very light scratches and dings. Mags and sling in commensurate condition. It would be difficult to upgrade the condition of this specimen. 51794-2 JWK135 (3,500-5,500)
