I'm adding up the cost and looks like I will be at $1400. MOE, geissele trigger, metal charge handle and a silencerco sparrow can. $$$ for a composite gun lol. Add some dura coat, red dot mags and ammo and wow it all adds up quick.

I got mine lightly used from a friend.. paid $325... $26 for weaver brand extra high rings, and $20 for harris bipod adaptor.. im at 371.. sold the barska holographic red dot so drops to $331 ;)

Already put close to 2k rounds threw it, invested will go up as i plan on adding a utg tactical light, a lazer sight, angled front grip addition and a moe? Butt stock
 
If I could leave out the can, geissele and find the MOE for a good price it wouldn't be so bad. I just almost feel bad for having so much in a polymer .22lr haha.
 
i started with the MOE version. then, before it arrived in the mail, i picked up 3 extra 25-round magazines, a folding bipod foregrip & a case (not to mention a few thousand rounds of ammo).

the fun my wife & i are having at the range: priceless.
 
$369 For the gun with flash hider + free Red Dot thrown in,4 extra magazines @ $15.99 ea That's it & have no plans for anything else I am perfectly happy with it as is.

  • $140.00 for 7- 25 round mags

And the Scary total for everything except ammo is....$1198.00....OMG that's $719.00 in parts....:eek:

And it only took 7 months to do....
 
The thing is most of those components would have cost tripple, if not more, on a center fire AR.

When you are looking at $600 for an Aimpoint H-1 and a La Rue mount, $700 for a DBAL Civilian legal IR laser, same price components for the Magpul gear, $60 for a decent AR charging handle..... it adds up even faster.

I'm just trying to make myself feel better about it. Haha I'm glad there are people out there putting a bunch of $$$ into this gun like myself.
 
I don't even have mine yet and I'm already another $250 into it. :) I'm still waiting for the thing to get imported to the country :)

It IS. Add up what "real" components would have cost you, on a $1000 rifle.......

Then factor in ammo.
