For those of you in the know...

What can I reasonably expect to pay for a new DSA SA58STD or SA58C?  A lot of folks w/ FFLs that I contacted are offering to do the transfer, but said I'd have to contact DSA to make the purchase.

Lemme get this right, if I order it myself, I'll be paying full MSRP?  It's been my understanding from past purchases of firearms in general, a dealer ordering a firearm can generally do better that full MSRP.  I'm I missing something here?

Sir, are you referring to the SA58 or the STG58a Austrian FAL rifle?  I never did see that price listed on their new FAL rifles.  Thanks anyway for the reply.

I bought an SA58 from them a few years ago, and aside from a few minor inconveniences, the deal went fine. Just one guy, just one purchase, for what that's worth.

You could also try Atlantic Firearms.  

Atlantic Firearms

When I inquired about a JLD he stated he gave $25.00 off list price for AR15.com members.  I don't know if that is for all members or just team members though.

Good Luck

I don't see SA58 models selling for much less than MSRP, on most every other firearm I may check prices on, it's MSRP less 20%. If the SA58 model is $1495 suggested retail, it would sell for $1200 and that never happens, not that I have ever seen.

I did look at your links but I think the rifles being sold on Gunsamerica are the STG58's using some used parts from kits, the SA58's are 100% all new.

On second glance you may be right.  I thought I searched for "SA58" but evidently I searched for "DSA".
Oh well, it gives me hope that I can get over $1k for my used SA58 carbine when I sell it soon.

I'll take this to mean that I should be prepared to pay MSRP from DSA.

Thanks for the info hapjack; oh, and in_burrito, thanks for your input also...

I asked for a email qoute from rbprecision.com on the predator model with a msrp of 1595.00 and got a price of 1430.00.  

It seemed like a really good deal from what I've found.  To your ffl of course.

I got my DSA STG 58 for $940 out the door.  That was about 8 months ago.
