Wanted one of these since I was 14 when I saw Saving Private Ryan. That was 14 years ago. Last night I picked up my dream gun from C&S Metal werkes here in St. Charles. It has a 3-53 Barrel, WW2 trigger group and mostly USGI parts. I got her for $3750 (brand new replicas are $4500). Im happy with the deal. Anyways, here are some pics:
This is one HEAVY SOB. Going to take her shooting tomorrow and take some video. I'll post that sometime when I get home. What do you guys think???
You KNOW we all hate yo right? Just sayin.
Must be nice to have disposable income. I vaguely remember that.

WOW.....When you say WWII trigger group, USGI parts, what are you referring to?? It's not WWII GARAND trigger group, obviously.........or is it just real 1918A3 WWII parts and trigger group?
The trigger housing is of ww2 manufacture. The bipod, flash hider, bolt, and gas tube are usgi parts. The stock and receiver are of newly made Ohio ordnance parts. barrel is a sa 3-53.
Definitely cool.............
real nice jb, wish I had one.
In God we trust, all others pay cash.
Very nice! One of those is on my wish list as well. Let us know how it shoots, range report w/pics!
JB, like the others said, I now hate you with every fiber of my being.
Just kidding, Congrats on your purchase and I can't wait to see how she shoots! Way cool!!!
