I love it when some one turns up a copy of an old slick rag and scans it. This isn’t even that old but its always fun to look back a little.

All of that is pretty neat!
I bought a lightly used SP1 spring of 1985. Paid $450 including half a dozen USGI 20-round mags and a couple hundred rounds of TW72 M193 and a nice Koplin gun bag to carry everything in. My runnin’ buddy at the time thought that was too much and maybe he was right, but I did not care then nor do I now. Still have it and it still works as advertised.

the last one I saw was selling for 2800 so I think you did OK . I paid about 800 for mine back in 09

I don’t know whether to be happy or sad if 2800 is the going rate these days. I haven’t been following them.
Oddly enough, 09 was about when I bought my SP1 carbine. Paid more than that but it did come with a Colt 4x scope. I think we both did all right on these deals. And even if not, I’m sure you’ve heard the old saying that you can never pay too much, but you can buy too soon.
