Honestly, one of the major goals I believe all NJ gun owners should have is to get the NJ AWB repealed.

 

All I want is a stinking M1 Carbine!

Where?? The lowest I've ever seen in the last 2yrs for any M16/Converted AR15 type registered receiver was $12k

 

You can get an RR "M16" for $12K and a Colt firearm converted to M16 specs for less than $10K.

thanks mipafox for the weekly reminder that you can have full auto stuff, and we have mag limits and live in a state run by commies.

 

 

disclamer: if i spelled something wrong or didn't use proper grammer, tough shit.

There are a few ways to get a few $K off of MGs. First, don't shop Gunbroker/GunsAmerica/Subguns/etc. unless you are looking for something unusual that most people don't want.

1. Be patient.

2. Post WTB adds. Many people want to sell their MGs but don't want to advertise them for sale. They'd rather deal with one serious buyer cheap than a dozen assholes and Bloomberg people.

3. Check local boards or smaller ones. People love to sell NFA local.

4. Post WTB adds on local or smaller ones. (obviously)

5. Word of mouth. Put the feelers out on what you want.

 

The last one really helps if you know some dealers. Even if you only bought cans off of them. Believe it or not, most dealers will refer direct deals to you that they think they can't make money on. I picked up an MG and a can that way.

 

People in the loop or posting WTB adds should always get all but the most in demand MGs 20% cheaper than the cheapest online national WTS adds that get scooped up in seconds. And I have even seen converted ARs go on below $10K on the national online sales several times this year. Just not most of them.

I'm planning to get a RR early next year, might I ask you for assistance when the time nears? If you don't mind.

No problem. Hope I can help! And at least consider RDIAS

If you had left out the disclaimer, you'd have been OK. Your capitalization could use some work though. .

If I was in such a state where I could have one a RDIAS would be my choice. Can't you pop that thing in and out of any AR lower you want to turn it FA? Drop in when you want it, take it out and back to SA only.. am I right?

You need the other 5 AR parts and a lower with a low shelf.

I would, but aren't those like over $15k? I'm not looking for an investment, just the most cost effective way to get into select fire on the M16/AR platform. Failling that the AC-556 looks pretty good (for half the price) also.

You can get an RR "M16" for $12K and a Colt firearm converted to M16 specs for less than $10K. "Tens of thousands" would apply to rare items. Or, of course, a LL for $6K. Like I said, I wasn't arguing with your sentiment. I wanted to clarify because a lot of people think MGs cost more than they really do.

 

Living in this shithole I have no reason to so I don't normally go out of my way to price them but I have seen true M16 receiver guns listed for sale here and there between $15k and $20k.
