[ARCHIVED THREAD] - What are parts kits running for now?

Posted: 4/29/2015 2:53:25 AM EDT

Several years ago when FAL parts kits were cheap and plentiful, I was able to put 5 complete kits aside. These kits all have the original barrels. Now I've been thinking that I should sell a couple to finance getting the others built. I just don't have any idea what parts kits w/barrels are going for these days. Just what are they going for now?

400 and up, lots depends on what is exactly in the kit, numbers matching, condition, etc.

Really! I guess that I will have to pull them out and see what condition they are in. IIRC I have a couple of G1 kits from Tapco and the rest were from Dan's Sporting Goods.

Do you remember what grade the Dan's kits are?

What I would also recommend is to head over to the Falfiles. If you post particulars and potentially some pics, you'll get some good responses. Chewed up Imbel kits are around 4, with rare kits like L2A1's going well over 2k.

I don't remember what grade the kits are that I got from Dan's. I suspect that they are not anything special. I did swing by Falfiles. Turns out that my membership was still active. Just had to get them to email me my username.

Edited to add: I just pulled one out and the receipt was still in the box. Looks like I paid for the hand select.

When I set these parts out to photograph, I noticed that the serial #'s on the bolt and the receiver stub match.

I got a similar kit from Dans 7 or 8 years ago. It sat around and I had it built a couple years ago.

I did not shoot it much because of the loose rear sight. Added a 4x scope and a DSA top cover and it is a shooter.

Mine looks like crap but shoots very well.

Might be interested in one if you decide to sell. I have a CAI FrankenFal that goes bang every time I pull the trigger, been thinking about adding a nicer one to the safe.

Sweet. That'll bring a good price. Nice kit. You just don't see them like that anymore.

I have two hiding in the garage from Dan's. Somewhere.
