Will Ar-15 Type guns go up in price/value?

[Ed M]

Had my eye on this one, and it's out of stock.

I suppose the one you mentioned with the 10 round mag would be OK, but I'm just gonna buy from my LGS.

Same story with the Ruger AR556.

The 10 round mag one is still available and priced like the S&W 10 rounder.

Huh? grabagun has the sport ii for $519.00 in-stock, my local lgs wants $600+ and that price has been like that a long time; maybe you were looking @ the M&P15 811000 or 11511 those are different animals than the cheaper made sport ii

I paid $589 for my original Sport from GaG several years ago - the early version with no FA or dust cover. Nice value AR that was fun to shoot.

all of you guys that don't want an AR are a bunch of armpit hair braiding, long haired, VW bus driving, hop head, commies. Sorry that was harsh....all of you guys that don't want an AR BUT HAVE an AK are a bunch of armpit hair braiding, long haired, VW bus driving, hop head, Burning Man going, commies.

Its a joke guys....please don't kill me.

I took my AR out for a little recreation on Saturday. Coyote hunting, no 'yotes came in but we did manage to find a few prairie dogs that were dumb enough to be outside their burrows. My farthest hit (actually 2) was at 296 yards according to the range finder. Funny how they don't duck into the hole when bullets hit next to them!

My AR isn't exactly a typical one, 26" SS heavy barrel, 6x-18x scope. I'm building another upper for it though, with a 16" barrel and a red dot. So far component prices haven't moved much if at all.

I have got to get me a ruger mini-30. Ive wanted one of those for a long time,

A good opportunity for a cautionary note. For those who don't already know this....Mini-30's generally do not play well with that old surplus 7.62x39 ammo that is, or at least used be, sold by the 1440 or whatever round case. I have a lot of that, but it's reserved for my SKSs. My Mini-30 lives happily on a diet of Winchester ball and Corbon hollow point.

[Bawanna]

Yup Ruger = 308, Surplus 7.62 = 311.

[knkali]

Yup Ruger = 308, Surplus 7.62 = 311.

you answered my question...thanks

Thanks for that info. Thats good to know.

Thanks, Col. I couldn't quite remember the exact diameter them Russkies assigned to it.

Mini-30 will eat it, but not the best idea other than in a pinch.

I own what I think will soon vanish as sales went in the toilet after President Trump was elected. An Original DD-M4.
It blows away any other AR I ever shot including my original Colt 6920.
Disclaimer: None of my weapons are "Assault" they are Defense only.

[Barth]

I'm not like everyone else...

Just for the record, I love domestic ammo.
But also AK reliability.
So my two Aks are 5.56 NATO and .308 Winchester.
5.56 NATO

.308 Winchester

My Son was ordering an AR upper yesterday from CDNN. They told him that the supply is dwindling down and once they restock the prices will go up "a bunch".
If you want to build your own, buy your parts now for the best price.
