RiverRat70 0 Posted November 26, 2013 Been out of the gun world last few years due to work and lack of extra income, but now things are normalized financialy (kind of) anyways always wanted an AR, but last i was checking few years back the prices were going sky high... have the prices settled, dropped, or gone up even more, this would be my first AR so im not sure what to get just something to shoot and eventualy like every thing else i get, upgrade Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
xkon 0 Posted November 26, 2013 They have come back down from the recent scare in the beginning of the year. I would suggest building your own if you plan on upgrading it anyway. It will save you money and you will have exactly what you want Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Blake 50 Posted November 26, 2013 If its been a few years prices have likely gone down, then up, then down again lol. Right now there is a glut of ar's on the market and some really good deals can be had if you look in the right places. Look at slickguns.com in the rifles section for good deals on assembled rifles or use marketplace listings to piece together your own rifle for cheap and exactly how you want it.

RiverRat70 0 Posted November 26, 2013 thats just it, i dont know what i want, i mean i know how i want it to look, but i wouldnt know a good part from a crappy one, so what i would deem a good deal could really turn out to be a bad one,, guess its research time Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Blacksmythe 71 Posted November 26, 2013 The ever popular M&P 15 Sport is around $700 or a stag arms model 3 is $895 is a good basic AR. I built a CMMG lower with a CMMG parts kit mil-spec buffer tube and Magpul stock with a preassembled Stag 3H upper and CMMG iron sights for 6-7ish.

ZOMBIE 19 Posted November 26, 2013 My friend just built an ar for just over 400 bucks. Only thing he still needs is a rear sight. They can be built on a budget Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
areacode201 4 Posted November 27, 2013 The prices seem to have dropped and stabilized back to pre-Newtown rates. Now wouldn't be the worst time to buy. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
