Off Season Lets Talk Guns
Been a while since we had a guns n' ammo discussion.
Some of you are AR shooters Im sure. Im looking at a Colt 6920. Will be my first AR. Picked up a Glock this fall and really enjoy shooting it. Any feedback on that weapon? Anyone else been in a buy/sell/trade mood with hardware? Part 2: http://www.chiefsplanet.com/BB/showthread.php?t=293623 Last edited by Bearcat; 07-28-2015 at 06:06 PM.. |

If any of you out there have that ammo, I would say use it as your last resort emergency supply in case of a zombie apocalypse (IDK why you would be using .223 against zombies, but whatever) or clean your gun immediately after firing even a single shot. I may be overreacting and maybe that lacquer shit isn't so bad, but it just looked horrible and it was everywhere.

I agree, there are a lot of high mark up items including ammo at them. I have a few guns/rifles in mind what I want. But I'm not paying rip off prices. Dick's had bricks of CCI 22lr ammo and a lot of .40 cal ammo today btw. |

I may have a chance at a Russian ak74 with 6 mags, dark wood furniture+$400 cash. He wants my Ruger LCR 38 special and my Para Ordnance 1911.
Or both my guns for the ak74 and a ruger lc9. I really want a 74 but don't want to trade my 1911. |

AKs aren't really worth shit, good shooters but have next to no value.

You can buy a brand new LC9 for 420 right now...and probably less in a bit and he wants to charge $400 for a used LC9? Someone's math isn't right, unless there is a TON done to the LC9 or a ton added to it.

The AW ban is dead and frankly it's unlikely to come back. Supply will return to normal soon. The only wild card is if izhmash prices will go up because of the restructuring. Possible but I don't think it represents the 30% increase that kvar put on. You'll get one it will just take time for supply and prices to normalize. Unless your state is doing something stupid there's no reason to rush to buy one right now.

I'm not a big .45 guy myself, but I know the value of these guns. I wouldn't get rid of the PO 1911 if I was you.

The mags could be something special but realistically they're more likely Tapco at which point 6 mags is worth about $30 An Arsenal/Legion/FIME that comes factory converted would be worth more, but most likely it's someone's converted saiga. Without knowing who built it and what parts they used to convert it the gun might only be worth $300. Base gun probably only cost 350-400 and you can convert for ~$100. Brand new might be worth more but I assume this is used. The problem with the AK market is that the devil is in what parts are used and what mags they are. Without knowing specifics it's really hard to price. 'Russian' doesn't really mean much because of all the converted saigas on the market. The market is whatever someone will pay for it, but honestly I wouldn't pay much for a used AK unless there's something special about it. Likely in a month or so we'll be flooded with them and great deals will be had new. Frankly, rather than buy used if I were to do it inexpensively I'd rather buy a cheap unconverted saiga for ~400 new and pick the parts I want to convert it with.

I don't believe it's a Saiga or Wasr. I also don't think it has been fired much if it all. When he gets it I'll get the specifics of it, upload a few pics. The owner of it currently is a class III dealer in Texas, some ATF guy. |
