No, the run of civilian M249s that FN did a while ago are closed bolt and not readily converted back to the same config as the military models.
Open bolt semi-autos were banned in the late 80s/early 90s as they were deemed readily convertible to full auto. Existing guns were grandfathered, but new ones going forward were considered MGs and banned from registration to individuals.
Honestly, the newest iteration of the Ultimax would be absolutely tits. The Singaporeans licensed Sullivan's continuous recoil design, which makes them very docile under full auto fire.
Holy shit, really? I read somewhere that there are only three civilian owned examples in the entire nation.
Personally, I would go for a Stoner 63a if I had $50k, as they are extremely capable SAWs if you put in the work to maintain them.
This one is a āSā model(M249S). Legal civilian Semi-Auto.
That's disappointing unless there is a boogaloo modification option, like how all you need to make an AR-15 full auto is one small part.
open bolt weapon friend... we shall say nothing more š
