I brought this little gem back with me a few years ago. I still think it's one of the coolest of all the military configuration AI rifles. Purchased while serving overseas so no import marks. I'm really debating whether or not to shoot it or just keep staring at it in the case. I really want to shoot the thing but I fear it might be worth too much. Anyone have any insight on these things? Thx.

They show up here occasionally. You’re the second guy to show one off here in the last eight months or so.
Tom Irwin posts here pretty frequently. He might be able to give you some insight on the exact gun. I’d shoot the shit out of it personally, but I’m no collector.

Oh, and being a super AI whore myself, nice gun!

Yeah man... that's my problem too. I'm way more of a shooter than a collector.
 
The scope that's mounted on it...

That's the first scope I ever bought, a Hensoldt 3 - 12x. Awesome glass with some pretty unique features...
 
unless your going to keep for a investment then shoot it, rifles are like hand tools. use them up and buy a new one...
i would get a number in your head that will make it worth enough not to shoot.
if its worth 5-10-15000 will you shoot it or sell it.
if your never going to sell it anyway, shoot it and enjoy.
look at my ferrari...i never drive it.
