Does the rifle suffer from the same "weak load spring" debacle that sullied the M-16 (prompted by the recommended/max ammo cap.). Regardless, The Friends of Dubya wishes to purchase some of your rifles.

How many can we get for: $5,500,000,000 ?

No, this has been noted and it has been studied by our military scientists. It is most likely, but not positive, that it will not suffer from the weak load spring. However, we cannot account for all rifles.

Since we are going through a time of economic crisis we can only produce 50,000 for you. If you wish we can export these to you for a worked out price (gtg now can't do math :P) Do you wish?

Ratheia: yes, I believe it is.

"Military Digest" gives it the coveted thumbs up award, only given to half the guns out there.

Still, in all seriousness, nice gun, beautiful pics. Although we have no need for them, we could help manufacture them. TG me if you want me to.

The Nation of Havock would wish to purchase your rifles, ten million to be specific. That would come to a total of 12.5 billion. Money will be wired upon purchase.

OOC: I'm just looking to reoutfit my military.
