Try searching in the US eBay for M60, under collectibles and then militaria. As for the body work. The E3 barrel and Standard barrel are different. I recently decided to switch my M60E3 Shorty to the M60 Seals STD version, kinda like you, but luckly I got M60 STD parts from an auction I won on eBay (god damn my reliance on them sometimes...). Anyway, on the Nam version, the feed tray cover is attached to the barrel locker (i believe), unlike on the E3's, the feed tray cover is seperate. I dunno if that was clear enough, but if i were to take pictures it should explain itself. Link to post Share on other sites

Lax Posted January 19, 2007 Report Share Posted January 19, 2007 I was watching two handguards on ebay and they just disappeared like the one you show Link to post Share on other sites
m35reo Posted January 19, 2007 Report Share Posted January 19, 2007 well hopefully one of those on ebay was bought for me by my sister, as shes state side may as well make use cheers for the details guys my mongrel project is set to go. will post pics when done. Link to post Share on other sites
Crenna Posted January 20, 2007 Report Share Posted January 20, 2007 I had realsteel M-60 handguard and complete bipod assembly on eBay few days ago, but got them removed & eBay gave me 14 days suspension. Nice little trick from them. There's no way you could sell those items on eBay, if you expect to get a decent price of them. If anyone has any interest towards these parts, please PM for details. They're both in great, original condition. Link to post Share on other sites
SilentScope Posted January 20, 2007 Report Share Posted January 20, 2007 They have done that to me when I sell EOTechs and Surefire weapon lights. I want to wring someone's neck, but then I realize it's probably just a bot. A bot with California's collective understanding of firearms. I also realize that without eBay I would not be able to make so much money by doing so little. Link to post Share on other sites

Crenna Posted January 20, 2007 Report Share Posted January 20, 2007 master_titled, $600 for carry handle? You're sure it wasn't handguard? I've seen them for $600, but for carry handle, no deal it can be true. Even if money wasn't an issue, I'd still take GB-Tech or Inokatsu handle over the real one. Easier to find, and fit. I had real E3 handle recently, and it was way too far from Inokatsu version, and as well overpriced. You just have to do a lot of modifications and spend money practically for nothing, if you really want real deal Mk43 handle. There's a nice E4 conversion at gunbroker's. If money is not a problem, take that. $6000 for few bits can't be too much, can it? Link to post Share on other sites

Crenna Posted January 21, 2007 Report Share Posted January 21, 2007 VFC handle in their gun might be pretty bad, but WGC has the old GB-Tech handle still in stock: VFC / GB-Tech MK-43 Mod 0 Rubber Carry Handle for TOP M60E3 That one should be much better than the one seen in their Mk43.

m.thumwood Posted January 25, 2007 Report Share Posted January 25, 2007 i don't know what part lets the handle down. i've pulled on it quite a bit and nothing happened/it didn't brake. and the handle its self looks quite strong.... Link to post Share on other sites
