| Whats the going rate for a Springfield Armory Scout model with the black synthetic stock? This is the 18'' bbl version not the SOCOM. |
      I want a Springfield Scout BAD!! BUT, it is really pricey. The lowest prices for a new one are about the same as was quoted above. That's before shipping, transfer fee, and surplus overcharge or whatever other hidden fee that will pop up (2-5% CC charge). Then mags and ammo, possible optics. Damn! I've been thinking a lot about a cheaper DPMS AP4, it's a great shooter, but I don't like it as much as the M1A Scout. |

here www.jobrelatedstuff.com/forums/topic.html?b=7&f=93&t=367072 I've seen this rifle and know the guy (although I get nothing from this) But there's your deal. |

Check the auction boards. I just purchased a like new one off of auctionarms.com . It has the black synthetic stock. I won the bid for $1096.00. It cost $35 to shipp it to my FFL. Then I had to do the transfer of $65.00 on my end. So the total was $ 1196.00. delivered to me . It was still cheaper then purchasing one locally. I couldnt find a used one and a new one was like $1500+ locally. And the thing shoots perfectly. You will not be dissapointed with the scout. I think its the first rifle I actually have feelings for..LOL Good Luck quote]Quoted: Whats the going rate for a Springfield Armory Scout model with the black synthetic stock?

Not an SKS but maybe a Vector AK variant, shoot, I might splurge and get an Arsenal AK at $800. Which is still a lot of money! I'm probably out of my league here. I ain't a poor man, but by no means a rich man. I just couldn't stomach paying $1500 for a rifle. I wouldn't spend that on a TV that I'd use everyday. The rifle, even if I shot it 3-4 times a month just couldn't justify the cost. Maybe that seems out of place because a lot of the guys on this board talk about their multiple ARs or dropping 2K on a rifle. But it just ain't for me. Oh well. Besides, I got married in May. I might risk my marriage If I brought home a $1500 rifle  .

Great Deal! I was debating between a SOCOM 16 and a Scout. I grabed a SOCOM off of gunbroker for $1200. Should be here next week.
