imschur Posted April 10, 2012 Report Posted April 10, 2012 I blew the last of my spending money a week ago. Today not one but two deals pop up on a local forum. #1 a CT preban AR-15 for about $200 ($1300) more than I paid for a stripped CT preban lower two weeks ago. #2 a CT legal unfired Bushmaster ACR for $1500 >:(
Team Helotes Posted April 10, 2012 Report Posted April 10, 2012 I am glad to live in a free state without stupid gun laws.
Retired JM Posted April 10, 2012 Report Posted April 10, 2012 Do I understand you correctly? You paid $1300 for a stripped lower? That's re-donc-ulous!As for the ACR, I've shot one. Liked the ergos. Didn't like the weight (for a 5.56 rig). The killer for me was the 1:9 twist barrel. Now that Remington's involved with it, maybe they'll make some improvments.
Jgun Posted April 10, 2012 Report Posted April 10, 2012 What exactly are the restrictions in your state that make the pre ban stuff so desirable that the prices are so high?
imschur Posted April 10, 2012 Author Report Posted April 10, 2012 The CT ban pre dates the Federal ban for one. Many weapons are banned by name. So the AR-15's that arent named in the ban and were manufactured before the ban was implemented are highly desireable as you can have all the evil features. CT AWB forbids more than two evil features.High Capacity MagsPistol gripThreaded Muzzlefolding/Collapsible stockBayonet lugWe mostly seem to see Essential Arms, Bushmaster and Olympic Arms.
