Ahmadi6490 Posted February 13, 2011 Report Share Posted February 13, 2011 Looking to buy one around $500....if not i'll settle for an Ak @ Vances. Would be willing to throw in a few things too as well as cash. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scotty2Hotty Posted February 23, 2011 Report Share Posted February 23, 2011 Good luck with that price tag. I'd sell you a lower and a rear sight for that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark1647545493 Posted February 23, 2011 Report Share Posted February 23, 2011 Go to Vance's and put a deposit down on the Bushmaster AR they have on sale for $599. They will call you when it comes in. A good friend bought one and for $600 it's well worth it. You're not going to find a new AR15 cheaper in Ohio.

Mark1647545493 Posted February 23, 2011 Report Share Posted February 23, 2011 Also, you'll be glad you spent the extra $100 getting the AR over the AK. You're not getting near the quality of gun in an AK. I'm sure Scotty will agree with me on that. He's the one that convinced me the AR is a much better gun.

MrMeanGreen Posted February 23, 2011 Report Share Posted February 23, 2011 Are you seriously telling him to buy the Carbon 15? Your buddy is a retard for buying one.

Just uses it for target shooting. I can't say that I've researched them just going by what he's told me. What's the issue with them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark1647545493 Posted February 23, 2011 Report Share Posted February 23, 2011 (edited) ok... upon further review of the carbon 15, I retract my previous advice on purchasing this rifle. I had no idea it was made of a carbon composite material. Reviews aren't the greatest on this rifle either.

MrMeanGreen Posted February 23, 2011 Report Share Posted February 23, 2011 Lol, a rifle made entirely of plastic is basically what it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GSXRAntwon Posted February 23, 2011 Report Share Posted February 23, 2011 So is this like a carbon fiber rifle??????????!!!!!!!!!!!! If so, I can has one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
copperhead Posted February 23, 2011 Report Share Posted February 23, 2011 A $500 AR would be possible if you are willing to build it yourself. Stripped lowers are as cheap as $60 online, dunno about locally. Then, buy a parts kit or piece the lower together, then buy a used upper from arfcom or wait on a super deal online, then go with a basic iron rear sight, no optics. That can be done, but will be time consuming. I'd still rather have a super budget AR than an AK, the only things I like off the AK platform are the Saiga's and they are as expensive as an average AR.

Mark1647545493 Posted February 24, 2011 Report Share Posted February 24, 2011 Lol, a rifle made entirely of plastic is basically what it is. Agreed... This is from Bushmaster's website.... The Bushmaster C15 Carbines are a unique hybridization of traditional AR-15 type features with space-age Carbon 15 composite molded Receivers for light weight and rugged durability. Anytime something is described as "Space-age" it makes me laugh. My buddy said that it shots good but this is the first AR he's ever shot. He also said that Vance's has been selling a ton of them. good luck with your search. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ahmadi6490 Posted February 28, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 28, 2011 Haha wow I never knew that about the Carbon 15...those shoot the NATO rounds don't they? I was actually thinking about doing the deposit but now hell no. Thank you Dark Formula for the info. I always wondered why they were so cheap especially since it comes with a sight too. There's a gun show next week at Westland i'll check it out around there...AR might be outta my budget untill the summer. Was looking at the sks vs ak47. Looks very identitcal except the ak has a pistol grip. I like the ak because of it's durability and i'm obsessed with the look. But then again I want a gun that is really accurate.
