I know this isn't a sniper rifle and I know it's not vintage, but this has always been the section to share and discuss rare and interesting firearms that wouldn't generate very much discussion in their usual sections. Due to it's rarity and historical interest, I've decided to post this pistol here.
I recently purchased a legit Mk27 Mod 1 and I already had the correct Trijicon SU-291 on hand. I've never seen another Mk27 with SU-291 in private hands, so this could be the very first civilian set-up like this with the real optic! The pistol also has the correct military UID laser engraving on the underside of the trigger guard. The box has the correct model number and a blue label. It needs taller sights, so that's the next step (please let me know if you have any suggestions).
I'm still looking for a Glock Mk27 Mod 2 and I'd be willing to pay quite a bit to get one! I have another SU-291, so I'm halfway there already, lol.
Here's photos of my 2 NSN marked RMR's (SU-291/PVS). They're pretty rare, I've only seen a few others. They came in military packaging and the instruction manual even show that these have an NSN number laser engraved.

Here's a few pics of the Mk27 Mod 2, the only difference between the Mod 2 and Mod 1 is the threaded barrel. You can also see the engraved NSN number on the RMR, this is the main feature that separates it from the commercial ones.
