New help from AR guys

[Lennyo3034]

So I was offered an AR in trade for my Nightforce. I know nothing of ARs so I'm hoping to get help from AR guys on what they think is the trade value of his rifle. Build sheet is:

magpul moe stock
egro grip pistol grip
noveske chainsaw lower
barrett upper
lothar walther 16" barrel threaded 1/2x28
troy industries alpha rail
midlegth gas system
RRA NM trigger

Any suggestions on what trade value it would bring? Round count is 0.

Stock- $50
Grip 20
Lower $150

Barrel $200
Rail $190
Trigger & lpk $115
Gas tube and block $50
Total $885

Bcg and charging handle depending on what type $150-200

Also which NightForce you have?

 

[Lennyo3034]

Hmm, not looking good. Nightforce is a 2.5-10X32 compact model with zerostops. I'd put trade value around $1200.

 

[RW2111]

i personally wouldnt maybe if it were brand new but would still be questionable

 

[Lennyo3034]

The rifle is brand new, but the scope is not. However I'm in no hurry own an AR and only need one that goes bang reliably and shoots 2 MOA (easily acheivable). So baring further opinion, I think I'll pass.

 

[BenL]

That scope is ~$1500 new. Maybe the rifle plus some cash...

 

[RW2111]

Yea brand new still wouldn't swing me to trade

 

[Ar1b3nz]

Ask him to get you an eotech or aimpoint and close the deal

I would ask for a noveske upper to match the lower

 

[niftyvt]

If he put it together himself I would take it to a gunsmith to make sure it was properly assembled before I even thought about trading for/ buying it.

 

[Russ D]

Id say its close.

 

[Lennyo3034]

I ended up passing. I instead traded the scope and an M1a for a Nightforce F1 and a SWFA SS 5-20X50. Only needed one of them so I'll likely hock the other. 7 more posts and it might end up here.
