your searching in the wrong place for a real steel ACOG if its $900. On a good day, I can find one for about $600. Still, I see your point in that its so expensive. That's the reason I got an EOTECH for my M4
So if you wanted to get a fully auto gun from a dealer, public or private, like an AUG or something, could you buy it with your departments permission? Can you still keep the firearms after you quit the force?
