I have a chance to purchase an ARM Maadi, 2 30 round mags, 2 40 round mags and 500 rounds of ammo for $400.
Very nice condition.

Is this a good deal.  I am getting conflicting prices on line and my search-FU is not helping me.

I may have to add some compliance parts.  Original owner de-banned it but needs those parts.

That sounds like a great deal. If it is a Maadi built ARM imported by PARS or ACC/Intrac it is worth more than that in good shape. If you take a pass on it, send me an IM with contact info because I would love to pick up another Maadi for that price and I am in Florida too.

I pick it up.
Has the usual wear on it.  Very nice and head spaced out just fine.
Now for a muzzle break, Tapco G2, Grip, and piston to make it legal.

The only thing that is weird is the pistol grip on it is blue.

You can get black or brown Maadi pistol grips (and many other Maadi parts) at apexgunparts . Post some pics!

The plastic the Egyptians used was intended to be black but sometimes turned out blue. There are blue handled Egyptian bayonets as well. The blue ones are seen as desirable by Egyptian AKM collectors. The grip on that rifle is Egyptian.

As for price, you stole it.

Nice score! Given that the grip is legit and uncommon -as stated above, I would get a black or brown one and keep the blue one.

I am always on the lookout for a bargain and once in a while I do trip over one.
