  • Description:

    A very early patent pending AR-10 Armlite.  This rifle is one of the rifles licensed to be built by the Dutch arsenal Arillerie Inrichtigen in the late 1950's.  There were very limited sales for the Dutch built rifles.  Serial # 001135 was originally in England(BNP English proofs) and was one of a very small lot imported into Canada. The status of this rifle is converted auto. It can therefore be only transferred to a 12-3 buyer with this status or on consignment to a dealer or deactivated.  This rifle remains in excellent condition.  All original finish with excellent markings and as new 7.62 (308) bore.  The stocks remain in excellent condition showing remnants of a painted unit or group marking. A very scarce rifle at the very start of the family of AR rifles for military, police and sporting rifles.  This piece comes with a 20 round magazine pinned to the legal 5 round capacity.  Very few of these early AR's have appeared on the Canadian market and very little information is available.
