This is my budget version toy. Could not afford more than $500 completed, so here's what I got.

Carbine $389
SWS Brass Deflector $25
Bushnell TRS-32 $46
UTG Foregrip $15
3 25rd. mags $50

So it actually cost me $525, but I had to have extra mags.

Nicely done! I'm trying to get a few things sold to fund one myself. Enjoy your rifle!

Looks great!. Truth of the matter is your gun will shoot as well as any gun here with $1000+ of accessories or swap outs. Plus, with the lifetime guarantee, you have plenty of time to add other stuff, if you so wish.

Good shooting!

Default Welcome to the dance floor
The basic rifle this side of the pond, with one mag, is going to set you back $900.

....I understand why some of you have two or three of these fantastic rifles to play around with

Welcome to the forum and remember we are all addicts here, when you add more stuff we will be there to support you

... And you no doubt will, I had valiant intentions of keeping a stock gun and have failed epically if the parts I have recently ordered are anything to go by!

Welcome and fill your boots with the wealth of knowledge that lies within.

I don't think I have any firearm, except my personal carry piece, that's stock.

Price per brick (500) for Eley sport, decent cheap but fairly accurate stuff...is £40. ($60) but can go up to $120 for Eley Tenex their Olympic stuff. Other cheaper less reliable stuff is available, but no bulk boxes (as far as i am aware) and ammo bought must meet the requirements of your certificate, which has a limit as to how much you can buy and store in your personal safe. So no (official) hoarding of ammo, Up to now there has been no problems getting stuff, depending on which part of the UK you are in.

Lol, first step onto a slippery slope...grip next, then BAD lever (SBR), they would be my advice to an add on addict. and they do actually make the 15-22 more fun, if that is possible.

That plus the stamp for the SBR so many of us get in combination with a suppressor.

But I had to have (insert lots of other accessories here)! If you are like many of the other people here this phrase will become commonplace!

Good looking rifle... enjoy it.
