lol at 300k. AMG never even built that many let alone 300k soft skin hmmwvs to sell Q demil code to us lol

I agree. From my earlier research AMG sold a total of 240,000 us to the military. A lot of them are expected to be in service till 2040.

300k is not even close to accurate...it's actually quite laughable

May i ask why that is?

Consistency and liability is the simple answer.

GP would have to sell 50 units every business day for the next 24 years. LOL is right.

There are parts that are for use on Serial Numbers 300,000 and higher so they made more than that. Probably won't be surplussing to Civilians any REV Models for quite a few years though.

I corrected in a later post, there was an additional zero at the end of the number. I also went back and edited original post. That's what I get for not spelling it out, ha ha.
And the info I got may or may not be accurate, it is just what I was told. The good news is, even though we may not have the real true accurate number, there are a a lot becoming available. Sorry for the original missquote.

30,000 is a bull**** number. They have only releases and sold 2700 so far. So now magically this next batch is going to be 10x bigger. I call bs

Yea no way. Most were destroyed and left to the shredder, destroyed in the wars overseas and left, or given to ISIS

Not sure of the source of the information but the guys in the field aren't always in the know so keep that in mind. They have good intentions just always don't know the intricacies of things.

So any m111x coming in the next release?
