what is ur budget?

what do you look for when you purchase a firearm? Quality, performance, budget and etc.

Probably $1200 range. I was going to look at a pawn shop and see if they had any good deals on used ones. Quality and performance would be equally important.

Check gunbroker.com and find one you like. $1200 is going to get you a mid level AR. POF's, lwrc, noveske will run you $1800+. Bushmasters, colts and Rock river arms will run in your range. I would go with a RRA (rock river arms). U will find some great deals on gun broker and may be able to score a really nice setup for cheap! Post up what ya find ;)

Just looked at a FNH scar on the way home. Way too expensive for me, but it was cool.

They are very hard to find parts for too! But def a nice gun!!! My gun range where I am a member has one on the display case and I've held it a few times. The only problem are the sites lol try flipping them up after you have shot a few rounds... The fronts get really hot and you will burn yourself trying to flip them up.

bullitt5897 05-25-2010 12:09 AM

Yours doesn't have the Troy battle sites in the front hmmmm.... Typically you keep the iron sites as a back up set on the gun and I know a few ppl who use both simultaneously.

That's not the gun I saw, that was some picture I pulled off of the net. The one I saw was black. It was $2500, he said that was a great price.

bullitt5897 05-25-2010 02:14 PM

That is a great price!!! They are usually like $3k

Yeah I've looked at that site and find it horrible to use. I think if you knew exactly what you wanted it would be fine. Have you used gungenie.com?

I agree that gunbroker is not very user friendly. They really need to update it.
I've never heard of gungenie. I wonder if it's better than gunbroker.

I've read those FN rifles are crazy expensive (6 to 7k). I read that in ar15.com. Personally it's not worth it and why do people buy it. But if they can afford it i guess why not.

I was curious to know. As some of you guys know I own a POF upper. Because POF is a small company and they have proprietary parts (one of the down falls of owning a Piston AR. They should just all make it none proprietary. Hopefully one day when the military adopts it fully. I've read it in a guns and ammo mag that it will be in the next couple of years or so), what happens if the company goes out of business? If something should happen to the gas plug and op rod or the barrel where would I be able to get spare parts?
I guess that means i would be **** out of luck. Hopefully it won't happen. But you never know.
