Item has been relisted, you can find the new listing at: https://www.theoutdoorstrader.com/t...n-bolt-semi-banned-in-1982-very-rare.2323870/
Location: Berkeley Lake, GA

Sale Price: trade for Mitchell AK47 UF or milled Legend UF and I’ll add cash

Caliber: 380 acp

Bill of Sale?: no

Selling part of my 30 years of collecting firearms.

This is a semiauto Cobray MAC carbine made by RPB in Atlanta in 1979-1982.

It fires from the open bolt (aka: OBS) only 290 ever made and has a low serial number (#90). Comes with 1 original 30 round steel magazine.

This RPB has been grandfathered and is one of only a handful of open-bolt semiauto firearms that were not banned from private ownership in 1982 due to the ATF claims that open-bolt guns were too easily converted into machineguns.

Buyer must be 18 years or older, a current Ga resident and legally able to possess firearms.

Your welcome to your opinion :)

380 pill out of a long barrel will be more accurate than 380 pistol barrel, plus it’s a heavier carbine rifle, stabilizing this open-bolt RPB under fire is so much easier than any MAC pistol considering its soft shooting 380 bullet, even with its large reciprocating bolt :thumb:

This 380 carbine’s upper & lower receiver is dimensionally similar to the newer SWD M11/Nine receiver except mine’s shorter behind the grip (rear-end doesn’t stick back as far as m11/nine).. so there are mounts available for it online, and if someone mounted an optic on this 380 carbine.. I’d say the accuracy results would be in line with some other sub-caliber carbines with similar weight and length barrels :p

For $200 tax, I’d SBR it and simply drop on a common pistol upper receiver found online.
Cool
 
Thanks
