Mega is gone. Zev bought them out. Warranty is pretty much in question.AR industry is upside down. Sorry, may not be the best time to try to recover your expenses. Mega made good guns and purportedly Zev can as well. Best wishes. May be more of a a GunBroker item.

WTS/WTT Ruger Precision Rifle RPR Gen 2 6.5CM (18029) - $999 OBO
Boarman03 replied to LonePineOutdoors_AZ's topic in Classified Ads
Welcome to the club. I got a butt chewing for being fairly new and asking too many questions on an AR that was priced high. So, feel at home. I guess you are family now. I feel comfortable with anyone face to face signing a bill of sale and allowing me to document their AZ DL number and verify their identity by looking at their AZ DL. I offer the same in return. Pretty gun. I have the 308 version. -

Be very careful shipping. Tons of scams. Even if payment clears it can still be bad and come back. So many fake cashier's and fraudulent personal payment methods. Be very careful. -

Prices being asked? -
How many rounds down the barrel? With that many mags, you can put some serious round count out the barrel fairly quickly.

Bought a Sendero. What a difference in the finish work. Newer ADL 700's seem so rough now. Amazing the different levels of workmanship and finish through the years and quality levels, ADL, BDL, CDL, Sendero, etc. I know know why a gun builder friend has decided to go strictly custom actions (clone 700's finished well.) He says they also retain their value better as well. I'm still learning.😁

Where did you buy it? Was it a Blem? I do prefer Aero lowers as I mentioned, but I've not encountered the problems you have with my many Anderson's. Any manufacturer can drop quality at any time, so your problems are good to know. All plastic mags won't work? PMAGs as well? That would be frustrating. Is it the well or the mag release? You can adjust the mag release. On the bolt catch could it have been an under sized pin? Did you use the right pin? The trigger guard pin can be different. Who's lower kit did you use? CMMG and DPMs are pretty consistent. You may want an improved trigger assembly unless you polish your kit one really well. May we all have fun.

Carbine length, not cabinet. Sorry.

Are you wanting a Caliber and magazine specific pistol lower? All of the before mentioned come in pistol length barrels or cabinet/rifle length. There are magwell adapters for some common pistol rounds. 9mm comes in Glock or Colt. SBR3 braces are nice because they can be changed easily to rifle stocks for barrels over 16". They adjust like rifle stocks and use the same buffer tube, unlike Kak Blades. 5.56/223 in pistol length (must have pistol brace to be legal, or registered as sbr) is a lot of fun to shoot as well. Soooo, the real question is, Caliber and magazine specific or standard AR15 multical lower?

Anderson stripped lowers were $39.99 at Primary Arms. Palmetto lowers may not play nice with some uppers. I prefer Aero lowers with the screw adjustment to tighten the upper. David Beaty of the former Sun Devil Manufacturing invented and applied for a patent. Aero incorporates it in their lowers and have not been on sale like the Anderson's. I would watch all of the known AR parts vendors as AR parts are pretty much at an all time low. Primary had Anderson complete lowers not long ago for $109 each. Other sites had complete upper kits for $159 and less. Complete nitride BCG's were selling for $46. These have nice handguards, even 16" long m-locks. I built an 18" barreled 450 Bushmaster for under $350 that is shooting cloverleafs at 100 yards. Nikon Prostaff 5 scope and Burris mount prices not included in build price. Bought 6 of the Nikon's when they had a screaming deal last year, I think around $180 each, and I paid $63 for the Burris mounts, bought 6 as well on sale. Whole complete gun was about $600, scopes, mounts, gun, sights, complete. Now for a 350 Legend and a 50 Beowulf. 9mm AR pistols are cheaper and 9mm is about the cheapest center fire ammo. But not great distance. SBR3 braces can be a little pricey, around $100. AR's are definitely the Legos or Erector Sets of the gun industry. So many calibers can use the same 5.56/223 BCG, and same lower, and same magazine. 204 Ruger, 223/5.56, 22 Nosler, 300BO, 350 Legend. Have fun

Same type pm I got on the binos.

Sent me an unsolicited pm on binos. Out of state. No thanks!

Maybe he didn't understand how large Tucson is and how many other entities exist in the Tucson area. Not a small Pueblo, but similar to Phoenix metro. Just not as large, yet.

PM sent to arrange meeting.

Remington 700 it is then. Price range? Short action, long action, magnums?

We're you banned or just problems getting in? Or was your in box too full? I couldn't pm one great member because his box was full. He had to clean out some messages. If I have too many tabs open with coueswhitetail, still learning Google, I can't get in to it again. I've learned to watch how many Google chrome tabs I have open. Old dog, new electronics.

P.S. the Early 03 A1's are possibly not safe as many were not hardened correctly.

If you have time see if you can spend time around a gun builder that does quality work. Should reduce your risk of destroying parts. I can tell you the gun builder I've watched earns every penny. The cost of the equipment, his machining experience, his setup time, there are so many facets. The lure of doing it yourself I understand, but it is an expensive commitment. I'm excited for you. You're young enough to dedicate the time, and the money. It truly becomes a way of life. Best wishes and good luck. You could practice on cheaper military sporterized actions first. They become worthless as collectables. Old Mosins, Eddystones, 03 A1's, Mauser 98's like the fire mentioned. Experience on different actions should help on all actions in one way or another. Better to destroy a $75 to $150 gun practicing barrel removal than a $300 to $600 gun, in my opinion. Old Eddystones (1917's) have a nearly indestructible action that can be recalibered, using the nickle bolt, to some Magnum rounds. I picked one up a few years back in 300 Win mag. Without re-barreling. Cheap practice for rechamebering? Role milled the sight dog ears off and many were not the best job. You could really clean some of the sporterized ones up. Probably not exactly where you are interested, but it would get you lots of practice. I'll keep my eyes open for cheap Remingtons. Why don't people use the Winchester 70 actions? I've seen some of those cheap in the past.

Sorry, thinking scopes. Saw s on Razor. Realized later they are great Binos. Old man fauxpas.

More info. How many? Price each?

Too beautiful to shoot! Work of art.
