Rare SPIW XM19 Serial Flechette Rifle Magazine #ed - **THIS LOT IS INERT AND DEMILITARIZED** The very rare prototype 30? round magazine was part of the Special Purpose Individual Weapon (SPIW) program are started by the AAI Corporation in the in the 1960s to replace the M16. The SPIW program came up with the prototype XM19 Flechette Rifle. Very few rifles were made and very few of their 30? round magazines. This magazine is serial numbered 230 and it is our opinion that may be only 5 to 20 rifles in existences and thus very few magazines. It is fair condition and shows much wear and age. The follower is stuck at the top of the mag and won't push down and it has no spring. For the collectors that have one of the few weapons left, this is a golden opportunity. Also as a bonus is included a 7” prototype with no magazine bottom and numbered ”3”.
