Wtb: Ar15

[Bluesman001]

Looking to pick up an AR15. Right now I have $350 cash to at least get an upper. Hit me up with offers. Maybe toss an AK offer at me, who knows?

 

[Texan2]

I dont know of any AKs that you can get these days for $350. You best bet is to just buy the AR a piece at a time if you are wanting an AR. What are you going to use the gun for?

 

[Bluesman001]

I like everyone else here love to shoot and collect guns and have wanted an AR since getting out of the Navy/Marine Corps many years ago. You might say I'm a tad impatient.....Maybe, just maybe someone has an extra they don't mind parting with.

They're out there....my most recent build is a DPMS upper mated to one of their 20" SS Bull Barrel....have $250 in the upper...so, yeah - it's possible.

$299 for a Saiga. $16 shipping. $10 transfer. $30 for new trigger. Beg, borrow, or make your own pistol grip and butt stock = darn fine AK for $355

agreed....and I own a Saiga but completely forgot about those. But he says he has always wanted an AR. Seems like if you want an AR, buy an AR. the AK will still leaving you wanting an AR.

Yeah, but sometimes scratchin' CLOSE to an itch kin bring some relief!<G>

 

[Bluesman001]

Lol, right!

True, but I feel it's better to have one rifle now and continue to save for the one you really want than to have no rifle at all while you wait.

...and then you'd have two rifles!

 

[Bluesman001]

Bueller?

 

[Bluesman001]

Ok, I'm up to $400 cash. Any offers?

 

[Texan2]

When you find $400 ARs let me know as I will place a large order.

 

[TheDan]

I'm guessing the cheapest you can do an AR for right now is about $425. Plum crazy lower for $125 and an on sale upper from somewhere for $300.

 

[Texan2]

Cheapest I can find a complete upper for is $350 and thats only on occasion. Add shipping and an FFL fee and you are up around $500.

$500.

why would you need an FFL for an upper? they can ship directly to your house.... only the lower is regulated.

 

[Bluesman001]

I get it guys, thanks a lot.

I swear I saw a complete upper on sale for $299 not too long ago, but can't find that deal now. You're right, they are normally more like $399. Don't need an FFL for the upper, tho. Just $10 or so for shipping. You can find the lower in a local store. Got my plum crazy in Georgetown. Guess it was more like $135 after tax.

 

[TexasRedneck]

I got my DPMS SS Bull Barrel for $250 (used) - thing looked like it was new. We won't talk about the rest of the stuff needed....<G>

 

[Bluesman001]

I guess I am just looking to buy either an AR upper or complete AR here locally and avoid shipping costs (as well as possibly FFL costs, although I have no problem going through an FFL and my CHL should ease worries as well....)

 

[Texan2]

I didnt say you needed one for an upper. But to build the whole gun you need a lower too. I was refering to total cost to build the gun.
