But not always at a reasonable price. I lost $1,500 to a crook out in WA. state, who was recreating an exact replica of the FJ 42, (first model) in it's original 8mm. configuration. The estimated cost when from an original $4,000 to $10,000, until a number of original depositors banned together and called a halt to the hikes, at which time this crook closed his doors and walked with all the initial investor's money. He got to keep the 2-3 completed prototypes he created and we lost our seed money.
Most of the rare German WW2 guns, (MP44, MkB 42H, FJ 42 first and second mode) are being manufactured in semi and in original calibers or 7.62x39 in Germany at reasonable prices. Our own idiotic gun laws are the only thing preventing us from owning any of these.
