I thought it useful to post what brands of ar's are available to us in S.A!
Please feel free to add anything that i missed!
Here goes...
1)There is a par mk3 made by pro armory in czech republic http://proarms-armory.com/en/
2)the next is from khumba on the forum they bringing in north eastern arms made in canada going under honey badger armaments
http://northeasternarms.com/
3)Then theres the sig sauer 516 made in U.S.A under license
http://www.sigsauer.com/CatalogProdu...16-patrol.aspx
4)if you have about 50000 grand to spend then the Heckler and koch MR556A1 is also going to be available.its basically the civillian version of the 416 but important to note it is made in U.S.A not Germany

The original 416

5)then theres the v-ar which is made in czech republic as well but has a lothar walther barrel!

6)There is a cheaper alternative which is the norinco cq

8)Lastly we move on to the original Armalite Ar15

Would be usefull to know where the listed FA's are available from as well, which dealers?
I am opting for the NEA, well constructed, smooth shooting and not heavy even with the RIS.

I don't think all these models were available to us. Most of them were but not all and most of them are sold out. There is a similar thread somewhere.
My choice woud be HK416.

Re: Ar 15's/M4's Available to us South Africans
Is this meant to be a secret because I have not seen anything about it on the forum.
Anyway the more variety the better. Is there a link or pics available on the forum.

Re: Ar 15's/M4's Available to us South Africans
I had a look at these and they are very well built but are demos, and I am not aware of any more being ordered as of yet.
At least however we are starting to see some nice kit coming in and big thank you to all the dealers in this regard.
Regarding the Sig and Armalite I would be interested to know if and when those were ever imported; the rest I am familiar with.
Regards

Silly q maybe, but what would you need to do to qualify for a licence for one of these?
