I snagged one of the thoroughbred armament mk13 mod 5 takeoff packages and was wondering if anyone else got in on it?
Mine arrives thursday or friday. Very excited

My 2 came in. One had an IMUNS
These have Navy Seal pecker tracks all over them. Mostly on the cheek pieces I would guess.What an I not understanding? Cause I see a case and beat chassis for $2k+
Just thought the same thing.What an I not understanding? Cause I see a case and beat chassis for $2k+
Back in 2007 or so, McMillan sold the used M40A1 “return stocks” for I think around $200 plus $20 shipping. Some guys only saw an antiquated old “beat stock” and passed. Other guys saw a unique piece of USMC history with providence and bought them.
Ten to twelve years later the old take-off M40A1 “return stocks” sell for 5x to 10x what they cost when released. Demand is still high, supply is extremely limited to basically non-existent.
As for today’s Mk 13 Mod 5 take-off stocks, some see a “beat chassis” and old case, but others see a unique piece of Naval Special Warfare/Navy SEAL history with providence...
The supply of take-off military a Mk 13 Mod 5 chassis is very limited and likely to soon be basically zero. Given the higher starting price I wouldn’t expect much appreciation, but I expect these items sold by the vendor with NSW providence will at least hold their value for those who want to replicate/clone that rifle.
In other words, me thinks history is likely to repeat itself about the value of such things with providence. Just say’n...
