Price question

Not a total expert on weapons but wondered if anyone thought that this guy was asking a fair price, or if he was out of his tree...


I offered him the following trade for his AR 15, it has a Rock river arms upper and what he said a Custom tactical lower, and he wants $900 for it... I could get a Bushmaster around here for that.


Winchester Model 70 7mm Rem mag with bipod and 3 boxes ammo and case

Mossberg 88 with extra 28 inch barrel, extra synthetic fore end and pistolgrip, box of 100 rounds of 12 ga... and case

This guy tells me he waned more money on top of trade, or more stuff, as he could get these things on "Auction Arms all together for like $400????

Is this guy for real or is he a doofus?

You can get anything on auction cheap almost, does not mean that that is what it was worth....


Here is his a copy of his ad...

"AR-15 .223 Rifle. Rock River arms 16" FLAT TOP upper with a "Mid length" handguard with mid length gas tube which is preferable for it's superior performance. The Lower is a tactical custom lower and come with a 6 position collapsable rear stock. Has a hard case, one 30 round mag, a Blackhawk tactical sling, A2 flash hider and a it has a
a yankee hill flip rear sight. It has had around 500 rounds through it $900 --- May consider trade ----- 247-4332

I have an RRA upper on a Stag lower and love it. It is a 24" bull though. Not really sure on that lower, as the only custom lowers I know of are machined billet, which are very expensive. If it's forged it should be good, although some Oly's have spec problems. Look more into the internals in the lower. $900 is excessive for a used standard AR, especially a pieced one. That upper can be had for less than $500 new. I got my complete Stag lower for $250 including FFL/tax. He doesn't really have much else to offer, except the YH which is around $100. That's $850 for a brand new, never fired rifle.

As for your guns. The Mossberg probably wouldn't bring much. I checked on resale of my mint M500 and I couldn't get over $200. The rifle however is a different story. What model is it? I haven't checked on prices, but I assume they've probably rose with Winchester discontinuing the M70 line.

Personally I'd say a straight trade would probably be fair both ways, depending on the model of your rifle. Hope this helps and let me know if you have any questions.

Edit: Just saw your paint thread. I assume it's the rifle you were talking about? What scope is that? I stick by it being a fair, straight trade both ways.
