Is that a good trade?

[agent]

I was telling my friend that, I have a bunch of guns that, I really don't care for . so he offered to trade his 2 SCAR-H (STILL on back order) with my unwanted guns .

My unwanted guns : ( All brand new )
IRON RIDGE complete AR-10 lower with match trigger.
kel tec .223 pistol with handguard, Flash hider, sling, deflector.
colt lower complete.
alex 6.5 14.5" with permanently attached hider and midwest industry rail .
sig swat with Sig light and front grip.
DPMS complete lower .
XCR Lower complete .

Is that a good trade ?

No, I wouldn't do it.
The SCAR can be found for 22-2300 dollars if you look hard enough. I'm no expert in the Rob and Alex arms stuff but I think your items are worth closer to 3k to 3500. I would sell your stuff off and buy your own SCAR off Gunbroker and you will have no wait.

I'd do it, but maybe try to keep the AR10....but if you don't want them, then by all means trade them for something you would indeed want.

But get the backorder thing settled, in writing. I wouldn't trade a known quantity of real firearms for a slip saying "I have this on backorder", unless they're paid in full, etc. Or don't do the trade until the guns are in-hand, etc.

AKA--check it all out first, but if you don't like what you have, get rid of it to get what you want.

Thanks for your reply
SCAR-H are not available yet, also I am not a good sales person ( where and how can I sell all of those ?)

Huh? Oh heavy barrel SCAR. Who cares, why do want a heavy barrel in a semi auto carbine? Kinda ridiculous to me I thought the regular SCAR was heavy as it was as I handled the one priced at 2700 dollars at my local shop. Well I guees it just fall under "different strokes for different folks".

SCAR-H is .308 not heavy barrel

 

[Mags]

Ah forgive my knowledge of vaporware. Like I said who cares I wouldn't trade for vaporware. Although a 308 SCAR sounds nice what mags will it utilize?

 

[agent]

If I want to sell those unwanted guns, then buy my own SCAR-H .

Where and for how much should I sell those unwanted guns ?

 

[Labyrinth666]

A SCAR-H takes a 7.62 NATO (.308) and a SCAR-L takes 5.56. It isn't a heavy barrel.

 

[Mags]

You could sell your guns here or on Gun Broker.

How much should I sell each for?
IRON RIDGE complete AR-10 lower with match trigger.
kel tec .223 pistol with handguard, Flash hider, sling, deflector.
colt lower complete.
alex 6.5 14.5" with permanently attached flash hider and rail .
sig swat with Sig light and front grip.
DPMS complete lower .
XCR Lower complete .

Another Question , Which gun dealer (FFL) can buy them from me for real fair price ?

 

[GunsBeerFreedom]

You won't get what you want if you sell them to a dealer. A dealer will give you enough so that he will still be able to make a profit.

 

[Wingnut13]

Agent, As long as you don't need to sell these overnight you'll get the most out of them selling them individually. You don't have to be a salesman, just honest about what you have. (should be easy it's all new) Right now the market is somewhat flooded with lowers (I'm only saying that because of the recent price drops I've seen) so you might not get top price for them. If the bother of selling all these is too much it might be a trade that makes sense for you. Like it was said before just make sure you get it in back and white though! ~wingnut13

 

[Dr.Mall Ninja]

just go on gunbroker and see what they are going for, then list it here or on gunbroker.

 

[waldonbuddy]

When is the SCAR-H supposed to be available?

"When is the SCAR-H supposed to be available? "


some time this year.

 

[nwilliams]

I wouldn't, but that's just me.

 

[agent]

"I wouldn't, but that's just me. "

Why ?

 

[Hatterasguy]

The Sig Swat is worth probably about $1,500. Thats probably about half of what that new SCAR will MSRP for.

 

[GunsAmerica Fan]

I would sell off your guns on GunsAmerica for what you want instead of doing a firesale at the auctions. It's not like these are 1970s Savage shotguns, it's all good, high demand stuff. Don't let him take advantage of you just put one on order. I want one too!

 

[MrCleanOK]

Does your original post say he has two Scar-H's on pre-order and available for trade? If it's all your stuff for TWO scars, I'd probably do it, or see if you can work out a trade for some of your stuff for one of them.

 

[hso]

Not a good deal for you.

If you don't want the guns post them here in the appropriate Buy,Sell,Trade forum, take them to a local gunshow or contact any number of on-line dealers who may purchase them. Or, go with gunbroker.

 

[DAVIDSDIVAD]

I agree the original post seems unclear.

Is it two Scar-H rifles you're trading for?
