I just bought this bad boy off of a guy at work for $200, including the body and tail switch. I just added some arms 22L rings, and threw it on my 9mm AR15. the guy only wanted $150, but I felt bad and gave him $200.
Here is the obligatory pic of the laser mounted:

These steals deals can occur, it's just rare that one of us gets to be the one bragging about it. Before y2k I put together a very nice AR for just under $250 (before optics & accessories) but that involved several lucky finds and selling off some of the bonuses in those finds --
I know it's an ugly duckling to some but that's a pristine Colt 1/7 hiding under that camo paint and it shoots like dream. The barrel, h.guards and complete stock were part of the biggest "steal" because the seller was apparently only after the pre-ban lower and didn't care for the original owner's camo job. The lower receiver was another "steal" after I sold off the M855 ammo that was purchased with it.
