Yeah, now 2 ar 15's, 1 ak 74, 1 C93. Does this ever end? I feel like heroin might be cheaper.

Been looking at gun broker and prices are random. But I'll check grab a gun. Thanks for the info.

What are they going for right now and were would I find two? (dont like not buying 1911's without it being a pair, dont ask why tho)

Bought the complete PTAC upper. Will have pictures when it arrives. Until then, I shall swim in tears for more money spent. Then again, it was just a flat $289. As long as it doesnt explode, I will be happy.     Crunched all the numbers together. This AR once finished will set me back $460. Thats not all that bad for a AR 15, just need to find a rear sight and I am good.

Next build will be a spikes for sure. I'm just using this a test bed since it will be my first build and I need to get acclimated with the ugly if the need ever arises. 

Thats a bit harsh, but I am going to buy it and see. Placing the order now. Just trying to figure out when it will arrive.

Sorry, I was too excited and completely overlooked the PTAC part. Work is really slow. So between looking for parts and watching the paint dry, I may have zoned out.

AWESOME! Now the question is, is why is this one cheaper than the others for a complete upper?

I will probably pick up a model 92 after I buy these two regents.

Sorry, For some reason those links didnt pop up on the ipad I was using last night. Since we aren't supposed to use work pc's for personal stuff.

Whats a good to go brand for a inexpensive upper. 16 to 20 inch? Trying to make frankenstein but dont know where to start.

I had a taurus model 99 and a black .357 in six inch ( can not ever remember the name) and I regret selling them. Specially the model 99. But these regents are surprisingly well machined for being "budget" pistol. I did keep my 17 round taurus mag from one I buy one again.   Brasil makes some great weapons.

Thats so true.   That great deal now looks like not such a great deal after all.

Picked up the lower, and he have me a stock and everything else. No cracks or lex on it. Now I just need to find a budged up and test it out. Then again, northside gun shop as a ar pistol upper but putting a stock on it turns it into a SBR, and that sucks :-\

That wolf ammo.... Holy how, even with shipping is worth it. Would it be suspicious if I bought three 1000 round cans?

Looks like that. I'll just wait for the gun smith to diagnose the desease

Anywhere where I can find cheap .223 in bulk? At the moment the best place so far is everything weapons in cool springs since they are about $100 cheaper then the franklin gun shop. I looked on gun broker as well, but the best deal was 1000 rounds of reloaded 5.56 for about $400 but its reloaded.   I am tempted to go buy some of the steel case tula or what ever it is called ammo from walmart, but I wont be able to shoot it at the armory. And its too cold to go enjoy the Charley Haffner memorial range  :-\

I am going broke. Between college, rifles, and cars. I need to find a cheaper hobby and beat the crap out of my friend who introduced me to firearms... I swear, I must have spend about $11k on cars and guns alone in the past five months. Good thing I am divorced now otherwise I might be typing this from the beyond. 

I might get back with you on that one. Im going to try some configurations with this one tho since all it needs is an upper..... and my friend has a AR 15 pistol that I am dying to modify  :whistle:

I was going to use it for a test build and try to put my first rifle together for around $500, so if it turns into a dud, I will know what to do the next time.

$120 for the complete lower and stock....

Yay or nay?

Anyone know of any place that has these around here? I love my two D100's and would not mind adding two R350's my collection. And what are some good 1911's chambered in 9mm? I had a star a couple years ago, but that was a largo and not a luger so I let it go.  And I know, most people will say there are a million pistols better than a 1911 in 9mm, but I just love the simple and elegant design so much. 

Thanks for all the replies, and I am leaning towards a unconverted saiga as some of you suggested. I have left over stocks and lower parts from my AK 74 and it could make it work. Thanks for the great input tho. And if I had the money to blow, I would get that sweet looking Krebs AK in 5.56, but budget is a bit tight right now.
