[KEEPING. Stag Arms/KE Arms AR-15 KP-15 16” barrel, M-LOK]

Dropped to $750

[SPM: Benelli M1 Super 90 12 Gauge- both stocks, chokes, etc]

Location is Blackman/Murfreesboro.  Must be Tennessee resident/of legal age and willing to show ID.  I accept cash and Venmo.  This is a private party transfer.  NO TRADES.

I’m hopefully going to be thinning out my collection by a considerable amount.  I’m just not shooting as much as I used to and I have some pretty good stuff collecting dust.

Picked this up used about 6 months ago. Original owner said he bought in the 90’s and had it in the back of his safe.  I have shot about 25 rounds of 00 buck through it.  Added a side saddle (removable) and upgraded the follower to an aluminum one.  I think it’s pre-ban, but not sure how relevant that is here in TN.  Original chokes, box, included. 

 

Asking $1300

 

 

[KEEPING. Stag Arms/KE Arms AR-15 KP-15 16” barrel, M-LOK]

Location is Blackman/Murfreesboro.  Wiling to meet within a reasonable distance, but my schedule is insane M-F, so those days are “you come to me”.  Must be Tennessee resident/of legal age and willing to show ID.  I accept cash and Venmo.  This is a private party transfer.

 

I’m hopefully going to be thinning out my collection by a considerable amount.  I’m just not shooting as much as I used to and I have some pretty good stuff collecting dust.  I have lots of extra mags and other accessories available, although I’m probably not going to package any optics.

 

This rifle was brought to the range once and zeroed with an optic that is no longer on it.  Round count is less than a magazine.  It’s a KE Arms KP-15 polymer lower that I absolutely swear by for weight, durability, and ergonomics.  Upper is a complete Stag 16”.  All purchased in last 6 months.  It’s 5 lbs, 13 ounces unloaded.

 

Upper:

Stag Arms 16” Factory Built Upper with 1:7 twist barrel and MLok handguard

BCG included

Strike Industries charging handle (blue)

Magpul MBUS sights

Lower:

KE Arms KP-15 polymer lower receiver- extended hammer pin, QD rear socket

Larue Tactical Flat 2-stage trigger (breaks clean at 4 lbs)

30 round M2 PMAG

 

Asking $700

[SOLD Glock 19X w/Trijicon HD night sights]

Location is Murfreesboro/Blackman.  Must be TN resident and willing to flash ID.  No paperwork please- private party sale.  NO TRADES

Glock 19X.  I haven’t shot it much and when I did, it had a threaded barrel and compensator on it, so I’m actually not sure if the factory barrel has even been shot.  Very little use, which is why I’m selling it.

Important note: the front tab on the bottom of the grip has been shaved off and polished.  Yes, it’s a turn off for the Glock purist, but with that tab, Gen 5 magazines with the longer base don’t fit in a supposed early Gen 5 gun.  After one failed mag change, I figured life/death was more important than the most useless feature Glock has ever added to a pistol.  It looks pretty smooth, but some of you 1000+ grit nerds can get it better.  Info here:  I admittedly only made it about 30 seconds in because my modification solves this problem- 

 

Original stuff included, although the original sights are gone.  It has Trijicon HD sights with an orange front. Also included is a Parker Mountain Machine compensator, but you will need a not-included threaded barrel for that to work.

Add an Apex trigger and connector in red or black for $70- butter smooth with it installed.  I can also sell you 9MM ammo (range or SD) at a below insane market value/above super low 2019 price point.

$700 w/factory trigger, no ammo

I wonder...

Do you find yourself buying mags for something you don't own (yet) when you find a good price on them?

Or hanging on to a supply in a caliber you don't have a gun for anymore?

Too tempting.  I’d have the gun for the mags in a week and I’d lose my mind not not selling off ammo I can’t shoot.  Related to mags, one weird thing I do is justify a duplicate pistol purchase by pretending I’m paying for mags I would have bought for the other gun, anyhow.  So a $425 Blue Label Glock with 3 mags is really 3 $25 mags I would have bought and a new $350 Glock.  I don’t need a Glock, but a $350 Gen 5 Glock is a no-brainer...and I already have new mags for it.

I really believe that Glock made a low key genius move with its mag prices. Their OEM mags are about the cheapest of anybody. I think that those mag prices have had a bigger impact on their continued market dominance than anyone really gives them credit for. 

Agree.  I miss the days of new $14.99 OEM.

One of the first mags I bought was a NFML Glock “hi-cap” mag for $80 during the AWB in ‘03.  I never want to be stuck in that situation again, so I stock up.  Harder to do at $45 a pop. 

[Any feedback on the FN509 Tactical?]

I sold all of my 509s earlier in the year.  I’m also a Glock guy.  Here’s what I didn’t like:

Trigger.  The factory FN trigger shoe is SLIPPERY.  The factory trigger pull isn’t terrible, but my bony fingers always ended up at the bottom of the trigger guard and constantly adjusting.  The Apex kit fixed that.  Installation was a pain with that one pin.  I actually snapped one and had to buy a $3 part with $8 shipping  

Mag prices- I think they are $40+ for mags.

Recoil.  Whenever I decide to get rid of a pistol series, I do a side by side comparison with a shot clock.  I don’t remember the splits, but they weren’t great compared to Glock or CZ, however better than Sig (dumped those too).  I think bore offset plays a role, but can’t confirm.  With the Tactical, that dot was bouncing all over the place.  I can run a red dot Glock as fast as I can pull the trigger.

Other than that, the 509 was 100% reliable and my Tactical ran great with and without a comp.  If you’re not fanatical about other platforms, you’ll be fine.

 

[Murfreesboro area pin and weld?]

Nomad doesn’t pin/weld, unfortunately.  Any other suggestions?

[Murfreesboro area pin and weld?]

I’ve used ADCO in the past.  Would prefer to just do this locally, however, I don’t want it to look like crap.  I hate an ugly pin/weld job.  Just looking to pin a Surefire SOCOM flash hider to a 14.5” barrel.

Any suggestions?  Would love Murfreesboro, but can shoot over 840 and go up 65.

Just seeing this now.  Funds sent.  Merry Christmas and feel better.  I’m also in your zip if you need a hand.

[Rimfire Experts- you have $2K for a complete build...]

I ended up abandoning this 22LR idea until I decide what I want to do and how often I want to do it.  I suspect this ends with me shooting groups at 25 yards, so I probably should have just kept the TacSol X-Ring that I never shot and sold here.  Will revisit at a later time.

Used Royal Range.  Their FFL is posted on the site.  You just provide them the guy’s name that’s selling it to you and he sends a DL copy.  Super easy.  Thanks for the help.  

Benelli M1 Super 90 on the way.

Oh wow, that’s my FFL.  And it even says it on their site now.  This is great.  Thanks!

FYI, Music City’s site says they do not allow private transfers:

Not sure if this is the right forum...  Just looking for recommendations on any FFLs that accept incoming transfers from private parties (that include a DL copy).

The few that I’ve talked to say they only accept incoming from another FFL. Nashville area, but include Franklin, etc   

I hate calling around and figured I’d try here first.  
 

 

[Rimfire Experts- you have $2K for a complete build...]

Cheap 22NRL gun.  I’m not cut out for door #1 and #2.  Punching paper off a bipod with rear rest.  Not sloppy semi auto plinking.

Right now, my interest is in the CZ 457 Varmint Precision Trainer...which is probably junk compared to that “cheap” NRL22 gun.  But even that CZ is $1K.  Add scope and accessories, I’m really not that far away from $2K.

So first question do you just want to shoot off of a bench or are you thinking you may like "Benchrest" shooting.  Big difference between them.  I am about as deep down the custom 22 rabbit hole as one can go and would be glad to discuss real details with you about what may work for what you want.  Also, are you looking to travel to some matches, or is this just informal plinking where you want a really nice gun, but aren't really interested in competition?  Lots of variables that would lead me to give you different recommendations.

In the BR world, 2k is not a lot for a gun, let alone a gun and scope, but it could be done.  If you think you want to shoot something more like NRL22, then that's a different discussion, but there also expensive guns in that realm too.   I have them all and will try to help you get what you actually need.  Glad to have a call with you if you want as well.  

 

Great questions.  Spent some time on Rimfire Central and those dudes go DEEP in this.  I thought I was interested in competition until reading over there.  I’m realizing I’m not willing to take something that seriously right now.

Pivoting.  For the ONLY 22LR you could own for target shooting, plinking, and maybe some casual competition, what is the best bolt action option in that “higher end” category?  Is that $1K?

I do appreciate the offer for the call and I may take you up on it, but I think this idea just got much simpler and cheaper based on the reactions.

$2K for a .22 is kind of mind boggling unless you’re a professional competitive shooter or an Olympian.  Sure you want to drop that much on a platform that has very limited range?

Not sure are all, which is why I’m asking.  I’ve been looking at $2K-3K base rifles (no optic) this morning with $1K-$2K optics, which is probably overkill.  These guys are shooting FAR for a 22LR.

I probably shouldn’t have sold my TacSol X-Ring without giving it a fair shot, but I really don’t like 10/22s that much for some reason.

If you are going to put a can on it, you don’t need to spend $2K. Buy a $150 rifle, but a $100 scope on it and call it a day. 

Fair point.  I’d like the option to put my can on it, but if it’s going to just blow back carbon into a highly accurized barrel, then I can pass on that.  I saw pics of some high end rifles with cans and (not knowing rimfire) figured there was some purpose to it.  

[Rimfire Experts- you have $2K for a complete build...]

What do you get?  Looking for bolt action for bench shooting and must include glass   I can probably go a little over that budget if needed.  Looking at potentially shooting Rimfire matches.

Do you buy new or used?  Any recommendations on forums/websites/places to buy?

I know almost nothing about rimfire.  I do have two Surefire 22LR cans, so threaded barrel is important.  

Any advice is appreciated.

Not to mention that looks like one of those Chinese clamp on blocks. Its highly possible it was out of spec from the jump. Let your friend know you really get what you pay for in the gun world.

My first thought.  I already don’t love set screw gas blocks, let alone this clamp style.

I would not say it was a thing to around 2014 most people were still arguing its not milspec and reduce reliability.

Sounds about right.  Before midlength, we had the Dissipator- 16” barrel, rifle length gas.  With no dwell time, the gas port on the barrel had to be opened up.  

They ended up just putting a carbine (now midlength) gas block under the rifle length handguards and leaving the A2 FSB where it was for the sight radius.  

Gas systems aside, the “long handguard with minimal barrel exposed” era is only a few years old.  Most of my ARs are set up that way.  I was actually looking at my 18” guns over the weekend wondering how weird a 17” handguard would look on them. 

[Post Your First AR]

First was 2003, just before the ban sunset.  Bushmaster ”postban”.  Paid $1100 and was just glad to buy it.  Bought a WASR-10 AK for $299 that same week, along with some cases of Wolf for $69/1K in 7.62x39 and $79/1K for .223.

Pinned stock (can’t actually collapse it), muzzle brake, no bayonet lug.  That one is long gone.
