    How would yall figure a price? Total cost of hard parts? Parts plus a percentage ? Look at compareable ar pistols?
    I had one built and it's just not for me. I'm just having problems figuring a fair price and need a lil guidance.

    How about you list the build and we could kinda give you an idea of how much we would be willing to pay for it? For instance, some builds are "budget" type rifles, and most of us wouldn't pay over say 600 for it. Some have plenty of high end parts, which would put it in the 1000's but once you reach a certain point the buyer will either want to buy it new, or buy a factory built gun.

    One thing to consider is the value of your gun after the election. It may be worth holding on to it for a little while if your not needing the money right now. Or maybe part it out keeping the parts you need to build a rifle.

    Plus you can order a complete pistol kit from Palmetto minus the stripped lower receiver for $400 plus shipping. They're out of stock right now. Complete AR pistol ready to shoot from Radical for $550 and up. Ya have to get in line thou.

    I've seen some guys price complete ARs or uppers based on their parts list cost here......and their f**kin dreaming.

    How about a .50 Beowulf 10.5" pistol ready to shoot?
