No affiliation WTS: MP5-K 9mm Submachinegun Transferable - NFA Market Board - Sturmgewehr.com Forums

To those that thought the price might stabilize or come down after 41f does not seem to be the case with Ruben selling 2 K guns last week at $41k/trigger pack and $40k/Sear (and I talked with him personally yes that is price he got) seems like a $50k Sear/Trigger Pack not too far off in the distance...........

Found this in a magazine I acquired awhile back, this was in 94 I wonder what the "Good 'ol day pricing" actually was lol

"Good 'ol day pricing" - Hell I'd pay the full retail price! A lottery win would be more probable than some poor unknowing heir selling a sear for $675.

I agree, calmer market now. This RDIAS sat for a while at $29k and most likely sold for a bit less than asking: WTS: AR-15 Reg Drop In Auto Sear - NFA Market Board - Sturmgewehr.com Forums

Pre 41F would have been an easier sell as people rushed to squeeze in NFA purchases. I was shot down and heckled for offering $35k and even $40k for a RDIAS during my pre-41F hunt. $29k RDIAS post 41F and I pass...

Waiting for CA to be opened up to the registry, if only we had a crystal ball.

I certainly believe we are not at peak sear yet, but the market is noticeably softer for the last 8 weeks or so. This $42K MP5K is about a year too soon.
Not sure what market you have been watching almost every Sear I have seen listed except for mine has sold and mine is pending lol...........and there are a couple of WTB Sear Ads out there

NFA Firearms Ads 38k

History proves me correct with two well publicized auction sales of sear guns since I made this post occurring at 31k (one an an MP5, one a 51). The key to knowing pricing is to be current and prospective, not retrospective.

The market is softer as it got ahead of itself but that will change come November.

You made your assertion though based on info "8 weeks" ago which I proved above contradictory/different to your statement/declaration so it def wasnt noticiably softer 8 weeks ago if anything it was def higher more robust 8 weeks ago.......Yes 2 of the last 3 auctions which I publicized on here did end softer though you conveniently left out a Sear Pack that ended at almost the same amount as the Sear/Gun couple hundred less to be exact a few days ago so how does that fit into your theory? HK transferable sear by Fleming : Machine Guns at GunBroker.com and as I have said before I believe the softer conditions are mainly due to the amount $33k-35k sears that hit the market within last 2 weeks........obviously people are trying to cash in on the price spike..........I also think there is a new learning curve or feeling out period after 41F for everyone I know my dealer has not been able to get any New Form 4's in from ATF and is also waiting on Silencer Shop to get his new Kiosk installed he is sitting on over 50k of silencers that need to be transferred..............

My post was only 3.5 weeks ago and I called the weakness only to be met with a wall of references to past sales. But I predicted the near future with 66% accuracy, I'm going to say that's pretty good and be done. Anyone that wanted a sear could have had an S&H for 25K equivalent and a Fleming for 27 out of those two auctions.
