Local Sherriff sent a few back to the state along with three Winchester 1200 trench guns a few years back. I think the state provided some plastic pistols in return.
Ouch.

Yes, I did hear about the odd LEO that still had a couple or so sequestered...

Many were rebuilt to A2 status.

I understand that most of the m16 based "precision" SPR rifles have early XM and M16A1 lowers.

The federal "aid to law enforcement" programs has resulted in distribution of various obsolescent equipment from armoured vehicles to rifles and machine guns.

Various early AR15 and XM16 variants have surfaced from the very first experimental and trials rifles, sometimes in original parts condition (buffers, charging handles ect).

This too is illustrated in the past when early gas trap M1 rifles surfaced from armories for rebuild as far as the '60s. These time capsules should be exploited but likely never will be. As soon as they're stripped it's over.
