I have to agree. I see a lot of bumps on some ads with little price drops. I have one AR for sale and I have dropped the price from $900 to $650. Now I am getting responses. I started at $900 because I had no idea what it was worth. I'm not losing money at $650. People who paid $1,200-3,000 for $600 ARs post Sandy Hook bought into the panic. With such a glut of inventory in private hands and the best salesman in firearms history no longer being POTUS I expect firearms prices to continue to fall. That includes Milsurps. The more used firearms that hit the market the more prices will fall. Simple supply and demand. This will also drag down the prices of new firearms. $250 slightly used entry level ARs are not too far away. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

My mistake it is just under the second rifle that it cost $1,200 to build. Still $1,200 sold for $400. Sent from my XT1585 using Tapatalk

Or FN-49, G43, French MAS, FN-FAL. And that is just the semis. Try buying a rifle with the craftsmanship of a 1908 Uruguayan, 1909 Peruvian, or even a Swiss K31 today. You will easily spend $2,500. Sent from my XT1585 using Tapatalk

I am referring to the mid range and upper range Bushmaster, Alexander Arms, Stag, etc. I believe you commented on the post where the 2 ARs that he had $1,200 into each sold for $400 each. Sent from my XT1585 using Tapatalk

It's mandatory to raise if you don't want your insurance to be more than your taxes. Not sure if money is still available. It was 2 years ago. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

I can agree with not every AR is the same or worth $400 however it seems that right now the used market is only commanding 1/2 to as low as 1/3 the new value. I would venture to guess if you spent $1700 the most you would get is $850. Doesn't make sense to me, but that is where the selling point seems to be. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Good point. Probably also have to raise it 6-10' Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

I don't get it. It's a giant handgun. I guess if you want to look like Robocop it makes sense. It's kind of cool, but if you want an accurate pistol without all the extra stuff to get in the way buy a Lahti. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

The only new Rifles I have seen under $400 are PSA and other off name stuff. Granted I don't really look for new stuff. I agree about market value to an extent. I buy what I want regardless of the market. I am price conscience in case God forbid I am ever in a situation where I have to sell quickly I want to be able to at least recoup what I paid. I don't see a reason to ever buy a Black Rifle new based on the prices; maybe if you are a competition shooter. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

So black Rifles after a few hundred rounds lose 2/3 of their quality? They certainly don't make them like they used to. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

That's exactly like what I had in Bayville. 2 bed 1 bath bungalow on a lagoon. If I didn't despise this state so much I would buy another one. Perfect for owning a boat. Park in the backyard go right out Barnegat inlet or some crabbing off the dock or in the bay. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

It seem ARs that members dumped $1,200 into are selling for $400. Three Questions. 1. Why the low prices 2. Why buy anything but used 3. Do you regret building multiple ARs instead of buying Milsurps like the FN-49 which have doubled in price in the last year. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

It's very easy to figure out go to NJ Legislature site and look at roll call. Sent from my XT1585 using Tapatalk

Not sure where he saw it but it wasn't the ATF. A knife is not alcohol, tobacco, firearms, or explosives. Only knife ATF would possibly deal with is a ballistic knife. Sent from my XT1585 using Tapatalk

Yup nothing about duel citizenship. In fact it is not recognized by the United States. Sent from my XT1585 using Tapatalk

I don't have a 3D printer, nor do I plan on getting one, but I too collect books, and the plans are just another part of my collection. I have had the original plans for years and I have downloaded the new plans. I will also download any updates to the plans. Never know when they could become of use.

Because he was in his home. They reference prior decision on carpet knife as being still valid. That one was guilty. Sent from my XT1585 using Tapatalk

Exactly. So I think that answers Paul's question about not being allowed to carry for self defense in NJ. Sent from my XT1585 using Tapatalk

It was in Millstone. Please enlighten us. I remember someone warning about Florida and offering condolences. That's right it was me. I concede Florida is better than NJ but it isn't Tennessee or other Free States. Florida falls in line with VT. Both falling fast.

NJ is so screwed up.@PK90 here is the specific case law that says you can not arm yourself with a knife or blade for self defense. However they have conceded you can arm yourself for self defense inside the home. NJ v Montalvo (2017), due to Heller, they concede you can arm yourself with a machete inside the house for self defense. However they maintain that in State v Kelly (1990) arming yourself with a carpet cutting razor before leaving the house to use for self defense is illegal. https://caselaw.findlaw.com/nj-supreme-court/1863588.html Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Nothing about immediate need. Explainable lawful purpose makes all knives legal. Sent from my XT1585 using Tapatalk

You forgot "unlawfully". There is nothing unlawful about using a knife, gun, or ballpoint pen in self-defense. I agree. Except that in NJ if you are carrying with the intent of using against a person it is unlawful til you actually use it in self defense. As I said chicken or egg. Easier to say you are carrying to open boxes, then if you have to lawfully use it in self defense you are protected under the law. Sent from my XT1585 using Tapatalk
