Hello friends,

I have a trade in the works for what is reported to be an AR-10T. I have a good deal of experience in the AR15 platform but not so much with the 308 AR's. I'm hoping you could look over the photos and tell me if theres anything I should be concerned about.

The current owner put the PRS stock on it and tells me it came with the carbine stock. Appears to be a carbine lower and a rifle upper, so I highly doubt this is a factory rifle, or could it be? Upper looks to be correct Armalite, would you agree? Anything else I should check or find out before doing the deal?

What do you think this would have sold for 2 months ago? The trade value is $2500 which seems par for the course in the current market I think. Again, I'm well versed in the AR15 world, this is relatively new to me.

Thanks and Happy (ban free) new year,
Sean

I couldn't see your pic but I don't try to guess value in the current market. I do not know of armalite ever selling rifles with carbine stocks, but they did make the 10T in a carbine.

Hello Smac and Welcome to the forum. :welcome:

It's always great to see new members and I'm sure we've got guys that would like to help you out but your link isn't taking us to pics, it's taking us to some login page so you may want to change that a bit if you want some help.

Looking forward to seeing you posting about your new rifle soon.

Me neither. I can't even BEGIN to get my head around some of the prices I'm seeing at my LGS and on GunBroker. 2000 bucks for a Sig 556? Gimme a break.
