Well, our president talked me into getting a second 15/22... So I've been looking around and all that is left around here are over priced non-threaded barrels. So I had been following GunBroker for the last couple weeks looking for a reasonable priced standard, threaded barrel model. I finally was able to snag one just a couple dollars more than I paid back in November for the first one at Cabelas. Score!

But when I opened the box I discovered that it was not the model that was shown in the description on GunBroker... It has all this Magpul ****,,, Magpul sights, Magpul Stock and Grip. Bummer...

That MagPul Moe **** is awesome **** if you don't like that Magpul **** sell it for a profit as many are looking to buy that Magpul ****
 
As luck would have it, I happen to have a set of factory sights and stock for a 1522. Being the kind and generous person that I am, I'd be willing to swap with you for the MBUS and stock. ;)
 
it shows he is currently online.....Hmmmmm. he must be rattling our chains....even though he is new to the forum..
 
I was quite pleasantly surprised, the first thing I saw was the QD Sling Swivel on the side of it and thought - what the heck is that, I don't have that on my other one... Then saw the MBUS... Considering the MOEs are going for a couple hundred more than I paid for it, I think I made a pretty good buy. It did say stock picture in the description, but....
 
I was being a bit on the sarcastic side in my original post... Heck yeah I like it! But I wasn't going to be bidding on one for what they have been bringing on GB and I haven't even seen them ever on the shelves around here, couple performance models but not the MOE. Ideally I would have prefered an FDE, but I guess I shouldn't split hairs...
 
Ah... I think reading this it came across to many like you were really bummed about it. That "just a couple dollars more" turns out really to be not so true at the end of the day.
 
I have a brick of Remington Thunderbolts I'll trade yah for.

I'm hesitant to offer up good ammo, but to help you out of this dilemma , I'll trade you a brick of Remington Thunderbolts for your inferior 15-22. It's a good deal. I'll pay for all shipping. :)

Best Regards, Mike
