Armory lower that has an Armalite Super Sass upper on it. The entire gun supposedly only has three rounds through it. It also has a Trijicon Accudot? 3x9x40 scope along with the one-piece Armalite mount. The gun looks as new and all Armalite paperwork including the fake suppressor comes with the deal. Is $2400.00 a fair price with the NON-Armalite lower on the gun? I need to decide buy tomorrow so any help is appreciated. Thanks.

The Iron Ridge is a billet machined vs a forged lower. As far as I know they are decent lowers. Don't get too much brain warp over the machined Vs. forged carp.

The price seems a little steep but I remember when a dollar was worth thirty-five cents.... :side:

That scope may be 1/3rd of the package. Google Trijicon and see what th MSRP is for the glass.

I may be showing my age here but a good aftermarket, match barrel is $600, an upper is $200 plus, a lower, ready for an upper is $500 anyway...$250 for a stripped reciever, lower kit w/o trigger $60, good trigger $200+...

You couldn't build one new for that if the price for that scope is over a grand.

Thanks for the reply. I checked Iron Ridge, Armalite and Trijicon websites and I came up with: Iron Ridge complete lower w/ magpul stock $899.00, Trijicon Mildot Accudot 3x9x40 $815.00; Armalite Super SASS upper $1814.00, Armalite one-piece scope mount $100.00= $3548.00 + tax. Of coures this is all at MSRP pricing.
The good news is I talked with him again after posting my question and he "offered" to take $2200.00 if I would pay cash today,15 April.
It appears I am trying to justify something I really don't need as I already have an AR-10T with a Swarovski on it. I wish I knew more about Iron Ridge Armory incase I am the one that needs to sell. In these uncertain times I just don't want to get stuck with something that I would loose money on. Anymore advice? Thanks.

Iron Ridge is good quality and great customer service. I think if you take that package you'll be very happy with it. That's also a great price for the kit, by the way.

I have 2 Armalite AR10 Stripped lowers that I need to sell if that would make you feel better about the deal. I also have several (5 I think) 25 or 30 round 2nd Gen magazines I need to sell (I live in CA so I left these evil parts with my parents in Indiana).

I'm also open for trades... I want:
a couple 5 round magazines
a long (>=20") SS barrel
an upper with Forward Assist
2 stage trigger / Lower Parts Kit

I haven't looked at the current rates but I think they're worth around $200?
