I think it's really great he is building it for the kids. They are the legacy.😁

Interesting. Some people may be a bit hypocritical. But this all does appear to be harmless fun despite it's obvious lack of usefulness, other than potential entertainment. So much judging. Interesting.....

Thanks Lee, I appreciate your sharing of knowledge.

If the Mauser is still available, I'll take it. I'll have to figure out the logistics.

Blogs say they range quickly. Many people seem to like them. Leaves me a little confused on them. Since you haven't had problems, that's a good sign.

When was it made? Warranty is only good for 5 years from date of manufacture on the electronics. Could wind up being a monocular spotting scope if there is a problem with ranging.

It's a very nice rifle, period.

Still a nice AR15.

Also the disaster contractors that do fire and other damage. Many times cabinets are pulled that can be repaired or cleaned up.

Stardust and classifieds in other sites. Talk around to remodel contractors. That's where I got mine for a couple of my rentals.

I know next to nothing about pistols. I've learned a lot about rifles, but there is a lot I don't know. I do know this guy has a lot of more expensive parts on his AR. It looks to be a very quality gun. It is a good looking gun and 18" is more desirable than 16", unless close quarters. If someone doesn't buy it I may have to make him an offer, even though I have enough very similar guns.

Definitely not the smartest, but open to learn. I've spent a lot of time chasing AR parts. I'm having fun with them and have more than my fair share. One of my goals is to have an AR in every available caliber they make. Even though I have the resources, I am very frugal and I scourer the internet constantly. I try to put together the best gun for the lowest amount. And I have no problem sharing the information in a pm. Prior to 2014 I knew little about guns. Since then I have been absorbing as much information as I can daily. I became good friends with a guy who manufactured AR's. Unfortunately he had to close his shop with the economic shift. I am friends with a great rifle maker. I know some very knowledgeable people that I pester on occasion. I'm not a know it all, but I do want to absorb as much as I can, while I can. And I don't mind sharing.

I understand, but $250? Like I mentioned, the bottom off brand 16" build from the cheapest source was $269 less a stripped lower. I'm extremely frugal but $250 was just a little rude. A base lower end complete and built is typically worth at least $350. This has brand named parts, not the cheaper ones. You make my frugality look like frivolity. That's quite an accomplishment! One person posted a generic AR15 for $650, later dropping it to $550. I would have paid only $375 for it, but this one is different. Probably worth more than what I would want to give but I seldom offer what others are willing to give. I'm not saying you are a terrible person. I'm just saying that your bid was extremely low and truthfully a little on the rude side, even for an AR15. This site in general has not been kind to AR15 sales, and perhaps we should be a little more polite. Maybe you were just poking some fun, but even so that "bid" could be considered offensive. Let's play nice in the sandbox together and everyone enjoy life.

$250 was rude. Those name brand parts run more, although not always worth the cost. With this soft AR market and on this site, not the kindest on AR's, $350 for none name brand parts other than upper and lower to possibly $900 or more for all name brand, depending on the names. Last Thursday one vendor had a complete 16" AR15 build minus only the stripped lower for $269.00 + tax, free shipping. Stripped lowers have regularly dropped to $34.99 + tax. Sorry for the timing. In a good market $1000.00 + would not have been unusual. Maybe with the elections the market will move up. Nice build and 18" barrel.😁 Just curious, how were your groupings?

22-250 should be pretty "kick butt" for varmints and smaller game.

I bought two, 204 Ruger and 6.5 Creedmore. Nice rifles.

Fortunate to be so frustrated.😁

NW Phoenix to Tucson, you are a traveling man. Be safe.

May be more of a GunBroker item. Very pretty.

Truthfully, the larger the Dutch, the greater the value, plus names may add even more. Size and names, as stated before, adds value onto condition. Don't short change yourself.😁

Yes, anything above 7 is too many! LOL

Impressive. Very full description and justification for requested price. Lots of great parts. Only two negatives are lack of funds by most people and a crappy AR market. Six years ago that gun would probably have brought $2,000. Looks like you had fun with that project. Wishing you the best.

It's been down a few times in the last few weeks.

Just saw your post on the items that were stolen from you. Sorry that you went through that. I do have a small suggestion; if your price is firm, kindly post that in your header by your price. If it is Tucson only, kindly post that as well. Again, sorry for your past troubles and I wish you well.
