Help! Gun show tomorrow!

stitchclimber · 09-22-2007, 07:08 PM

I was a at the gun show tonight and I'm going back tomorrow... theres a guy there with a DPMS M4 16" barrel with the handle top, and a flat top Double Star with a 16" barrel, both for $600. Are they worth it? There's also a Double star fully equipped lower for $200.

I live in a small town right now and AR's are few and far between at the gun stores.

I was kinda wanting to modify and build my own... What do you guys think? Good value? or crap?

If their in good shape, I'd say their all decent deals. The only thing I don't like about Double Star is their triggers. Sometimes they can be a little rough. If it were me, I'd probably buy all 3.

sounds like good prices to me, depending on condition.

I think they were all NIB...

Well I didn't buy any of those. The adjustable stocks all seemed short and and I just wasn't to fond of the guns I was holding... I figure it's worth saving a couple hundred dollars and getting something I actually want. So I got a Mossberg cruiser and some random ammo... I plan on getting my AR before Clinton hits office.

I hope not, but I've been surprised by less.

Buy them.

Sorry guys, but if you notice the date on this is a couple weeks old... the gun show is long past, and I didn't buy them.
