Consignor indicates this is one of only two of this machine gun model in the National Firearms Act registry which are registered as Pre-86 dealer samples. The Ulimax 100 was tested by the Marine Corps as a competitor to the Squad Automatic Weapon. This absolutely mint specimen had the original factory preservative grease on it when this cataloger first saw it, and the consignor cleaned this grease off for photography. It includes in addition to the buttstock, one 100 round drum magazine and one 30 round magazine, a spare barrel, just as it came from the factory in its original Styrofoam and cardboard shipping box. The Ultimax machine gun was designed in the 1970’s with particular attention to reducing recoil. It utilizes a short stoke gas piston system and no buffer. This allows the gun to be very compact and light with obvious advantages. This Mark III model incorporates a quick change barrel and is the “Ultimate Ultimax” for the shooter/collector. CONDITION: Overall appearance and finish is mint unfired in original shipping box. Bolt has been withdrawn only to ensure it was not loaded. Bore and bolt are mint. Mechanics are crisp. This is a select-fire machine gun. Museum quality specimen which is an important example of a firearm considered for modern U.S. Military use.
