ARMALITE AR-18 SELECT FIRE MACHINE GUN WITH SCOPE (FULLY TRANSFERABLE).ARMALITEAR-18A5527223MODERN; NFACal. .223. 19-1/2" bbl. Manufactured by Armalite in California, this machine gun utilizes a piston design to operate the action, developed as an alternative design to the M-16/AR-15 series of weapons. It is a viable competitor, although the M-16 won out for military contract as it utilized fewer moving parts, none the less in operation it is very similar with both full and semi-auto settings, provision for mounting a bayonet, flip-up and adjustable for windage rear sight with rotating post front sight and a standard mag capacity of 20 rnds. One definite plus to this model over the M-16 is that it has a hinged folding buttstock which makes it possible to make it more compact package. Another innovative feature at the time was an ambidextrous saftey selector switch. This rifle includes an orig Armalite 2.75X 20 mm scope with scope covers and four orig Armalite 20 rnd mags. Firing mechanism moves smoothly when operated by hand, this weapon appears fully functional. This is a National Firearms Act item and requires BATF approval prior to transfer. This weapon is fully transferable on an ATF form 3 or form 4. CONDITION: Overall appearance and finish is exceedingly fine to near excellent, attractive gray, smooth finish, with some high edge wear at scope attachment. Composite furnishings also in near excellent condition with some very slight handling marks. Scope optics are clear. Bore is excellent, shiny, and bright. Three of the mags are near excellent, the other has more of a gray finish consistent with the rifle. These guns are very comfortable and accurate to shoot and the piston design of operation continues to attract significant following in military circles. 51650-2 JWK723 (8,000-15,000)
