Are they serious?

[glowdotGlock]

I saw this ad on a Facebook gun sale site. They are asking $3,800. It's a "snipper" rifle. With a VFG.

[spazz023]

They forgot to add the flip up sights! Hurry someone buy it before they notice!

[Ted S.]

Maybe I'm dumb, but that looks like a carbine length AR 10...not a "sniper rifle".

[spazz023]

Well of course not that would just be stupid, it's a snipper rifle....

[mikegideon]

Snippin' with a red dot. Nothing better, I tell ya. :)

That's for snippin' practice. Just 'cause you got a snipper rifle don't make you a snipper.

[Dustbuster]

Real snippers pay to hide in the snippers hide.

[spazz023]

I love how they list everything out at retail price or higher, for what I assume is a used rifle, and then don't even give a discount in their out the door price.

Then again who hasn't spent $5700 on a snipper rifle, right?

If ML doesnt take it ill grab seconds on it!

[daveW]

If anyone just wants the rifle, I'd take the 500 rounds for $250.

I wouldn't buy a riffle from someone who can't even spell it.   :shake:

[Jamie Jackson]

I didn't even know I needed a snipper rifle...but if it'll give me karate kids skills...then maybe... :squint:

[monkeylizard]

Sorry Dustbuster, you missed out.

 

Thanks glowdotGlock. It was great meeting you. That snipper rifle is going to be awesome when I'm in my Gilly suit.

There are enough Mohel's that they get their own rifle type?

Sure. There's a whole lotta snippin' in some parts.

I joke all the time about how my 8.5" 30 Blackout is also a snipper rifle and how I need it to do some snipping of the enema soldiers when the SHTF.  

 

But seriously it is like every other ad you see in my area it seems. I can't count how many time I have seen on local seller pages a "Riffle Four Sell" or "Trailor" or the used underwear, socks or "bedroom toys" people want to sell for 2x new because they are already broken in.

 

And what the hell is up with the $485 in California taxes?

The tactical bibbed overalls that the gentleman holding the snipper rifle is wearing tell me all I need to know.

[glowdotGlock]

I believe grammar and a little common sense go a long way especially when trying to sell an item. I was wondering about that tax too Dolo.

We need to talk about the buy-sell-trade pages you visit.  :D

 

Specifically, do we need to add a forum for that here?  ;)

[Peace]

He had better close that dust cover.  

 

Snipping with a 3x optic - absolutely

Snipping with a dusty BCG?  ... can't be done.

[monkeylizard]

And what the hell is up with the $485 in California taxes?

 

Sales Tax, I assume. 5733 - 485 = 5248 before tax. 485 is 8.8% of 5248. I don't know CA sales tax, but that seems like a reasonable guess. Either way, it was money well spent. I got up early this morning to do a little pre-breakfast snipping. I love my new riffle!

AAARGH! nothing makes me rage like when I see an ad that says "Rifle for sell"! I'm no perfectionist, and I know I misspell stuff all the time, but I swear 10% of the ads I see do this.

For humanity's sake I hope it's an inside joke that I'm not in on...but I doubt it.

Rant: And another thing, what's with kids saying they're gonna win me. Like playing a video game it's "I'm gonna win you" instead of "I'm gonna beat you". Heard it from FL and here in TN.

Sorry rant off, maybe I'm just getting too old.
