Dayammm.  I guess the AR panic is officially over.

I almost want to buy a couple of those to scalp in 2016.  I have like 6 or 7 AR receivers these days, so it's not like I need another.

"Temporarily Out of Stock"

Being clearance, "Temporary" probably isn't.

Get on PSA's email distribution.  You will get 2 or 3 emails a day with different offers.  Often they are pretty good if it is what you want.  

I saw this sale the other day after buying another $40 stripped lower.  I just figured these wouldn't sell so well when the prices come back up.  I figure well known name brand uppers would be better.  However, if all the name brand rifles are $1200, this might still net you some profit.  The potential resale value later of these super cheap AR's has been a something I have been pondering for a while.


They also have 22 LR and 22 Mag for sale quite often also.  I have stocked up on some 22 Mag for my PMR30 from them.

If you go to the desktop site it shows them in stock. Phone call in order, or if would be if I had the money right now. *grump*  :mad:

Half of PSA's inventory is perpetually Temporarily Out of Stock while they make more.

IIRC, $399 was the price for AR-15s at the PX at MCRD SD in 1974.  Pretty sure I am remembering that correctly.
If there really was intelligent life on other planets, we'd be sending them foreign aid.

Conservatives see George Orwell's "1984" as a cautionary tale.  Progressives view it as a "how to" manual.

My wife often says to me, "You are evil and must be destroyed." She may be right.

Liberals believe one should never let reason, logic and facts get in the way of a good emotional argument.

I thought I had seen that deal last weekend, but finally saw it today.  Interesting.   =D
