Hi Folk's, Question: Were these ever offered as surplus? I noticed Bud's offered these at one time used while searching the web. A local shop has one complete (Both target sights) listed as "bore good, finish very good" $475 + Tax. Thank's for any info-Dave

Yes--the DCM sold them to folks at one time--and that's not a totally bad price if it is complete and "as advertised"

CMP released the last of these 8ish years ago.

I was glad to get the one I got, but it was a little rough:

Thank's for the replies Folk's. Their closed on Mondays, this gun was new on their site. This guy has a lot of cool stuff, but his prices generally keep me from going in. About ten minutes away, think I'll go look. Any ideas where they came from? Thank's-Dave

if it is a CMP issued one $ 475.00 seems overpriced to me - - Springfield Sporters in PA. sold a large quantity of them brought back from Columbia + a few sold by Ye Olde Hunter that came back from Israel - the foreign marked + pristine original commercial ones usually bring more money -

Thank you for the info. He also has a H&R M12 for $395, it has target blocks but no sights or rear sight mount. At least that's what the one pic shows. The H&R looks cleaner. Does it compare accuracy wise? Should I walk away from both? Thank's for any insight-Dave

The H&R M12 is a match rifle; the 513T is a trainer. The H&R has much greater accuracy potential.
