GUN THREAD...... Please put any firearm related discussion in this thread!

[YJ_Aaron]

I was requested to have a permanent firearm discussion area.  So therefore I have started this thread and will sticky it here in O.T.


First post.  I'm debating trading my .270 Browning BAR with a 4 to 12 Leupold Vari XIII for an AR15.

That depends on the kind of AR it is.  DPMS? Bushmaster? Rockriver? Colt? Home built set up? ... and what comes with it?

[YJ_Aaron]

Well I haven't even listed it anywhere to try and generate any trades.  So no details. 

[LoneWolf]

Well bottom line is... your Browning with those optics is worth a heck of a lot more than just any AR15.

[YJ_Aaron]

Well thats kind of my way of thinking.  If this one was a Belgium I'd hold on to it but it's not.  I'd like an M4 clone decked out. 

[LoneWolf]

well in my experience and opinion DPMS sucks, Bushmaster is just ok, Colt and Rock River Arms are both fine pieces of weaponry; The RRA Entry Tactical is what I have (with a few extras) and I love it, never any problems, always faithful; it'll shoot any ammo you put in it, even handloads.

Don't forget, you can always support the local economy and go with CMMG www.cmmginc.com
They're based out of Fayette, MO

I've heard good things and they always have a large table at the gun shows here in town

Alex it seems like I've seen those before.... if I sell mine out right I'll be more picky with what I buy.

I have looked at those and they seem to be priced relay good as well. I built my last on Hess shorty upper dms lower  had about $550 in when finished loved it.

     Have you priced one recently, prices are going through the roof at the gun shops.  I was going to order lower and upper receivers from Midway USA but they were out of them.  They were out of stock with no backorder for many of the bullets I reload with.

[LoneWolf]

yeah, everyone has been buying the crap out of everything...since about January of last year.

If your just now deciding to buy, I'm afraid your a day late and a dollar short, for now anyway. But don't fret.. it'll all work out and gun, ammo, reloading supplies and prices will come down and become readily available again when a Republican get's back in office.
