If I don't score any from whatever is left in production I guess I'll just dump my mags and SBR 15/30 lowers and go to SR-25 only. Damn. |

I hope you're right and I'm wrong. Charlie Mike It was in one of the groups, either Jack or Reed specifically stated they would keep making the lowers. It was whatever thread it was first brought up in, so unless something changed in the last month they're still making them. |

Interesting, Do you shoot high volumes ? Just curious |

Originally Posted By AndysAR15name: Wow dumping 556 completely for 300? Interesting, Do you shoot high volumes ? Just curious I made the reverse decision a few years back and regret it. Better SBR performance, shared cans with SR-25s. I'd say I'm medium-low. |

Wonder how many more of these they plan to make. Just glad they're keeping them stocked right now as I get my roller delayed collection in order. Ordered another 93 rail and a 91 rail...thinking about ordering one more MP5 rail also. Attached File Attached File |

What was range quality 308 at pre crazy? I only ever shot x39 and 5.56. These Sr25s are new to me. Sucks even Tula is a 1$ a round right now |

It’s probably like anyone else. Multiple calibers mean multiple machines and production lines. Why not pull the .300 bo and convert its production line to 5.56 with demand as it is. It doesn’t seem like SR-30’s sold that well. I don’t know that for sure. I just would see them in stock more often than anything else. KAC added 6.5 a while back so maybe it was just time to drop their least profitable line. I do not live in CA but I hope they will still make the SR-30 marked lowers for people who do unfortunately live there. If I ran a manufacturing company I would concentrate on 5.56 and 7.62 only. I totally understand their step into 6.5 with the mil asking for it. |
WTB: ARMS swan sleeve for PRI gen 1 or 2 tubes. Sleeve is not notched on the bottom to fit gen 3 barrel but. Looking for any early PRI tubes and charging handles.

I totally understand their step into 6.5 with the mil asking for it. My guess is that the SR-30 turned out to be too much of a "commercial" item. There was probably interest from some units early on but I can't imagine there have been a ton of huge .gov/agency buys on them. The uppers were using in-house made CHF barrels for a while now. Since they are the same caliber as the -25 if they ever scrap a barrel during production to a chambering mistake (unless the ODs are already turned by that point) or something they could always retain instead of throwing them away and potentially later on do more runs. Don't know how often they have to toss/reject a barrel for QC reasons though. All the other parts are standard SR-15 fare, except the rail is shorter than the CQB rail. |

The OD is not profiled before hammer forging. The ole smashy-smash machine wouldn’t like that. |

Bargain SR-30 Lower What in the Actual... |

Well, the last one to sell went for $3600 so ..... Guess we’ll see if that was a fluke or the beginning of a trend ETA: There’s this one too - SR30 Lower #2 |

I’m not trying to single you out or anything homie, I just filling in some hammer forge details. Edit: Aaaannnnnnnnnd I re-read your original post and I’m going on a tangent to what you’re saying. I’ll stop, hammer forge discussions can go elsewhere. |

Sold for $2250. Quite a bit less than the one at $3600, but still pretty high compared to SR15 IWS lowers |
This ones still got my head spinning.![]() Chrome bolt and sand cutter gunbroker. |

ETA: seller on that one has no sales feedback and looks to be a Non paying bidder as a buyer! Good call. Checked the completed listings. Seem to range from 2800 to 3800. I would need the lower figure to get my glass and mount. Decisions. |

I am not sure if you are in the KAC/LMT Card Group on facebook, but there have been a few people looking for the CQB in there. It would save you the fees on GB. You may even find someone to do a trade. |

Hello Gents, been a while. Just curious if there's still a market for a BNIB 870 RAS since shotguns aren't as popular as they were in the past. What would be the current value of one? Please do not blow up my inbox, not looking to sell it just yet and if I did, there's already a mental list of OG's in this forum that I would offer it up to first anyways out of respect. |

If it doesn't sell quick I'll look into that, or throw it to the GB savages. I have mixed reservations selling it, as I really have no idea what the future holds with this stuff. This year was so darn expensive though, gotta turn off the tap. |

This year was so darn expensive though, gotta turn off the tap. Just as an FYI, in the EE you are already competing with two other lower priced CQB listings that have been sitting unsold for a week. At $2800 plus shipping I imagine it’s going to sit for a while. If you are looking for top dollar, GB is going to be the way to go. |

I'll prob move over to GB then. |
