Fleming/Heckler & Koch “G3” Selective Fire Battle Rifle, Class III/NFA Fully Transferable Machine
Gun - Serial no. A045070, 308 cal., 18 inch round bbl., matte black finish, synthetic stock. Originally manufactured in 1981 in Germany (likely as a HK91) and imported by HK Inc., this rifle was converted
to fully automatic by Fleming Firearms, which included adding a “G3” model
marking to the magazine well. Originally designed and manufactured as the CETME
rifle due to post-WWII armament restrictions, the G3 was the standard service rifle of the
West German Bundeswehr from virtually their beginning, being trialed in 1956 and accepted in 1959, serving through the Cold War and into the 1990s. Hooded post front and four-position drum rear sights, with a JP brand tank style muzzle brake on the threaded muzzle (installed by welding the brake to a cut down HK factory pattern flash hider), triangular forearm, textured pistol grip and fixed synthetic buttstock. The “shelf” pattern receiver has the model and caliber markings on the left side of the mag well, importer markings on the right, and the Fleming address on the right side under the trigger housing, with a clamp on rail and an Aimpoint CompM sight on top. The trigger housing is fitted with a right-handed selector switch, and bears “0/1/A” markings, with a shelf pattern trigger pack within. The bolt carrier is a Portuguese FMP full auto model dated “2/68”, with a “HK 12/64” bolt head and matching number “246” on multiple components.
