[QUOTE="Glocktogo, post: 1124392, member: 1132"] A pre-May dealer sample is a full auto that was manufactured for civilian sale prior to May 19, 1986 but was not subsequently transferred to a civilian buyer prior to the cutoff. These are worth a little more than post samples because a dealer can purchase one from another dealer and then transfer it to their private collection if they give up their license. However, they may not subsequently transfer it to another person. When they die it must be destroyed per ATF regulations, or turned over to ATF. Pre-May dealer samples are not transferrable in other words. :( [/QUOTE]
