Also, a Sterling SMG(if they are still being produced.)

One of the local shops is building an indoor range. They are buying some class III to have for on-site rental. They will also be providing escorted, off-premises arrangements, ostensibly for wealthy tourists. I asked about those two guns, and was told that they are not amongst the order that was decided on. He said that if I wished to pay for one, they would charge me only the dealer's cost, and it would be available for me to shoot for free anytime that I wished. Of course, they would be able to rent it out for range use also.

I have no clue about real-world LE pricing on these. If it's equivalent to a quality pistol, it may be something that I would entertain. Can anyone give me an idea?
