Love the rifle! Not sure I would pay that much. Unless you were a serious history buff.

There’s only a limited amount of XM-3s around. Billions of women. Just saying.

It comes with the PVS22 clip on night vision.

 

[308Gunner]

That would be great to have, but if I bought it I would have half of my stuff.

 

[buffalowinter]

i'd buy it for 8K...it's going to go for at least double that.

Ironically enough, since she’s my sugar momma, she’d be paying for it.

There were 52 XM3 rifles built and issued to the USMC through IBA/DARPA. There were also 2 takedowns built. I don’t know the history on those though. I bet this XM3 sells for close to 20k!

$20,520.00 is the winning bid.

$20,520.00 is the winning bid.

That’s insane.

That's awesome for a collection. Also, now I know a 18.5" barrel does well with the M118LR ammo out to 1000. Good info to know for a build.

 

[Huskydriver]

That’s insane.

Flipping stupid.....
