This guy is attempting to sell a Special Weapons clone for 6k.
http://www.gunbroker.com/Auction/Vie...Item=304713636
Just sent him a note to take HK as it's not HK out of the title, and this is the reply I get.
Sell it for what it is..
"You obviously have no idea what you are talking about so keep your comments to yourself please. This is a 3000 dollar Hk PDA kit build price was 1500 receiver was 250 extra laser and parts 1000.00 so please just go away you obviously can't afford it."
Looks like the item is no longer on the site.
What is the the seller's ID on Gunbroker since his ad is now down?Quote:

sorry here is the full link
ensdesign is the seller
the listing itself is somewhat confusing, maybe because i am not into mp5's. doesnt sound like he is trying to mislead anyone.
is your beef with him the title? if so, big deal numerous auctions and for sale items list names of things that they arent. it gets people to look.
i really dont see a problem with it.
when i had a 300-221 for sale, i had whisper in the title. someone like you told me to take the listing down because it was not built by jd jones.
Sorry to go off topic here but the pic of the bottom of the grip with the metal wire catch that holds the trap door shut... Doesn't the shape of it look like HK is giving everyone the finger?!
My beef here is he is selling a 1500$ clone for 6k, he lists "All PARTS ARE GERMAN", when clearly it was built on a special weapons reciever. At most this gun is worth 3k, but more than likely 2-2500. He is trying to list it as a legit HK, which it's not. It's illegal to mark the spine with HK now the spine can be marked with MP5-K, but it's not HK MP5-K which he clearly displays on the spine.
People like me know what they are looking at when it comes to these, and trust me I know the price ranges they fall in, and this was an intended ripoff. I am unsure of your situation, but don't assume I one of those people, when you you admited to that you don't know much about the MP5.
Success he changed it to reflect what it actually is. No more "all german parts", and it's listed for what it is a clone.

thier $$$ and then come back to bite us as a community in the ass.
So go ahead and defend the guy all you want, he misrepresented his product 100% until he was "called" out on it.
I have an AR-15 that has all the colt parts, but its labeled as a Stag that Colt made a rollmark error.
Wanna buy it for $900 way cheaper than the real Colts or we could go $2k since its a Colt mistake that is SUPER RARE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
(Understand what IM getting at now?)

Freaking win,.
maybe he changed it before i read it, because what i read is apparently not what you read.
the pictures clearly showed the receiver, anyone stupid enough to believe that it was a true HK after seeing the different name on the receiver deserves to be separated from his money.
And what's with the selector switch being able to rotate to the full auto position ( see the pictures in the link ) ?
Even if it doesn't fire full auto, wouldn't the ATF be very interested in this person and weapon just for the selector switch being able to move to the full auto position ?
No, the full auto trigger housing is okay and legal to install, just not the actual trigger pack that it houses. These are clipped and pinned for that purpose.Quote:

When someone makes a highend purchase, it maybe their first firearm purchase, and he/she may not know the ins and outs like we do, but what he ultimatly desires. This douche bag was feeding on that.....POS in my opinion.Quote:

[LOL][BooHoo][Puke]Please do not become an FFL because your scaring me. P. S. All my Fal's have a selector that will move to the FA position.......................................... ............... Any Questions?
No Jerry I haven't seen a Fal up close, I don't go for that foreign crap........just kidding. [Tooth]Quote:

they do have real HK receivers out there... but this one is not one of'em.
... one of the ones I love (Misleading titles) is the confusion between the Dragonov and the PSL [Coffee]
He's relisted it.
Still wants 6200 for an MP5 clone...It's got HK parts.
They do? Where? I've never seen one...Quote:

It's pretty rare catching these for sale... but they are out there. It must be nice back then to be able to purchase one for less than $600... that sure would've been one hell of an investment[Stooge]

I have an HKSP89 sbr'd, which is similar to the MP5K, but doesn't have 3 lug barrel, none the less it's a sweet gun. Will post a pic in a few minutes..
I gave up years ago trying to tell people that my PSL was NOT a Dragonov. [Bang]Quote:

My bad[Slap]... I was speaking of full built MP5's in general that HK produced back then... not stripped receivers [Beer]Quote:

... I could be wrong.. but that's what I recall pulling up back then when I had a MP5 clone [Tooth]
