They are a legit dealer, and all of those m113s are Canadian surplus. They are under contract to sell them for the Canadians. You as an individual cannot buy one, they can only be sold to a US agreed to country. Being a Canadian, and partly paid for them, I was pissed to say the least I could...

Wow, at 49,500 pounds that works out to 74k and change US, not including shipping, I assume you are not looking to spend that much? looks cool but what are you using it for? could find some real armor and weld a plow onto it :)
