    quote:I ended up with this thing in a trade about 15 years ago. I am not sure what they were trying to accomplish with the trigger guard. I have put half a box through it in the time I have had it and I guess it is okay for what it is. Any idea what the interest level might be and what it's worth?

    I am not getting much info from the experts side of this outfit.

    That's the sad part...I will probably never own one because I can't find one in my price range. [:(]

    I wonder if you can find one with a laser sighting system or a Phased plasma rifle in the 40-watt range.

    I shot both the long slide and the AMT 22 mag back in 1989. Both would not shoot a full mag without a jam. Didn't they also make this in 30 carbine?

    Consider your self lucky if someone else bids higher then you . Unless you want a safe queen or large paper weight. AMT did not understand alloys of SS Quality was [:(]

    You had too! You had to polish the feed ramp also, just to get them to shoot twice in a row!

    They are hit and miss, the first ones made by amt in covina ca suffered from galling, then when they started being made by galena industries they greatly improved, the government and hardballer where same except for the sights, and believe or not the share the same none standard parts as colt gold cup


    High standard is now producing the amt automag

    AMT's stuff, for some reason, is oddly-appealing.

    I like the real machine-shop feel of their stuff --- and I don't know why.

    Anyway, save your change --- and one day, you'll have enough money to buy one. [:D]

    Good luck, man! [:)]

    PS, working with SS, isn't it AMT that "first" learned about galling and what to do to address the issue? Maybe it was someone else?
