If either of them want to shoot them, that'll be up to them. Yeah, my shooter is a 6.5 cm KAC. I have a 25 to shoot (and to be blunt, in a far better caliber) so I’m not missing the 25 experience. Based on that bid, this one would be tough to shoot. Of course, I may change my mind next week and say F it. Frankly I don’t think it would impact much of the value, if any. They’re extremely rare regardless. The CC parts are going for a sure money, I expect this would be similar. |
I'll just leave this here so we all have a baseline to go on for current market value; kinda under performed imo but ~$17k ain't bad. What surprised me most tonight is this! I didn't think it would be over $12k but at the end of the night it outperformed even the LB

The most valuable part of that rifle is the upper and there’s another one of those on GB that’s been listed for months currently sitting at $7200 unsold. Makes me think non-paying bidder. |

Considering sales tax collection plus shipping, $17,025 is about that number depending on the rate. It would be $18106.50 here in bluegrass country. |

Maybe some limited HEAT auctions go for that. But most other auctions don’t have that kind of pull. Guessing since this was the first complete LB to sell it has a premium and others that follow will fail to perform. Just my guess though. |

I know one of the guys from the FB side passed away for round 2, and his wife was picking up his orders. I really hope this one was his and she made some decent money off it. If it was just some rando...well...I don't think I'm allowed to say what I want to say about it. |
|
There's at least one more on GB again. I have my doubts it sells. Feedback on the user is really low. |
President-Elect Donald Trump will return to the Oval ofc, January 20, 2025. His election was certified 06JAN2025. HAPPY INS*RRECTION DAY! America's path forward will be epic.
The above statements bring glory to the empire.

Originally Posted By tac45: Judging from the last auction I think the market has already determined that to be exactly his asking price That’s exactly what they’re counting on. But auctions tend to get people to spend a bit more than they normally would with “just one more bid…don’t want to lose it over a couple hundred dollars”… |

Originally Posted By abpMN: I wonder why an admin of the group would be interested in resale for his LB. I can’t speak for him, but I can say I’m interested. Not that I would ever sell mine, but it’s cool to know you have a coveted item. Bragging rights and all…. |

Originally Posted By tac45: I’m curious to see if a set still in an unassembled configuration will pull more than a completely assembled set. So far the assembled rifle is still there at not much far off from the price of the first LB Good point. I'd also be curious to see how much people were willing to pay for each part. Mines assembled and not for sale.

As for why he's selling Idk since Idk him personally but I guess money does get to some people. Edit to add: I just got words that another LB sold 2 days ago for $16.5k and there might be 1 or 2 more popping up for sell soon. |

Sucks there wasnt more due diligence with vetting the list...I've seen so many resell or try to resell which is a shame as there are many that would cherish it forever had they gotten one. |

(Yes I obviously saw the reddit thread where they dragged you) I especially laughed at the under performance remark lol So when you listing it? |

Yeah, I understand that's what it comes down to. Just odd how someone who took the time to set the page up and manage it is looking to offload it this quick. Sucks to those who didn't make the list who would've kept it and enjoyed it rather than make a buck off it. I suppose it's possible it was a second hand one he purchased from another member. |

Could be it was the entire reason he set that shit up in the first place lol. Not a bad little payday for doing next to nothing. Edit: I wouldn't be surprised at all if he had multiples...seems like most of the usual suspects do. |

Hahah I already knew who you are even before you posted this respond. Still butt hurt much? As stated on Reddit I’m not selling any of mines. They will be pass down. And just for transparency here's my Reddit post. If y'all read the comments where I got "dragged" you can obviously tell who didn't make the list and has sand in their vajayjay

| So much butt hurt from dudes that didn't get one. If only you could have been in the right spot at the right time 5 years ago. |

Due diligence? What did you expect? KAC requiring every person on the list to get a KAC tattoo before they’d ship your parts? We all appreciate what KAC did, but it started in 2018 and just finished a few weeks ago. Family and personal circumstances change in 7 years. Some on the list even passed away. So why judge… |

Then buy the one off GB. Sorry you missed out, but I really don't understand why you're so concerned about what people are doing with their purchase. |

HEAT and NSArmory auctions get more attention than your average Joe schmo, my guess is they settle in around 10-12k. Special runs don’t seem to have the same pull as mil-surplus or clones. I mean that magpul dynamics sr-15 posted at 6.5k for weeks now has me scratching my head a little when they had been selling at 8-10k on GB. |

There's a Silverado cerakote listed at $4,000 and I would have easily expected that to get bid on by now. |

I joined this forum a long time ago but did post or come here much until the last few years as my focus was on other things. The next thing is convenience. Its one thing to buy something on GB from a company with a ton of feedback using a credit card. Its entirely another to risk $10K in cash to someone here unless you know them or are local. Just saying... |

Finally shot it for the first time this Saturday after making it in the list Christmas 2018  Idk about yours but my LB can shoot for a 16" chrome lined barrel  100m 5 shot groups with: My hand load (Lapua .308 case, Federal GM210M primer, 42.5gr IMR 4064, Sierra Match King 175gr bullet, 2.805" OAL)  And factory FGMM 175gr  No adjustment was made to the optic between those 2 groups. |
