Although I'm going to shoot at the Phoenix next year, I'm trying to judge how good the trade side is. James, if you don't mind me asking how much was the A5?

Mike, It was £525 S/H. Was in good condition but was not 100% on the colour. When I finally go for mine it will be either Coyote Tan or OD.

Hi mate, I wont say as I have a lot of respect for him and he hasnt had it a year it is me.

I bought the gun a year ago and decided to make it into a vietnam M16. The long time (months) is due to the upper reciever being hard to find, and one was found, so I am just awaiting some machining and anodizing to be done.. juts taking a while but the guy IS a legend.
