How much would yall think a low round count (around 200 rounds) Armalite AR10T should cost. It has the 24in stainless steel barrel.

I have a friend with one and were tryin to settle on a price but dont know where to start.

$1300 is what I'd pay if condition is good, for anymore $$ than that I feel the DPMS LR308 offers more for less.

I would say that Kirk is about right unless the rifle comes with a bunch of mags, scope mount, accessories, etc., etc. I wouldn't go higher than $1400 MAX and that would be if you just really want it.

Armalite doesn't offer the 24" barrel models any longer (they went to 20" tubes) and the uppers alone run around $900 or more when you can find them.

Are you a 1/2 MOA driver?

Re: art 10

I can usually get my 6.5x47 to shoot 1/2moa groups or better out to about 500 yrds, havent shot for groups any farther than that though.

Re: art 10

Driving a gas gun VS a bolt gun is completely different, I would expect the AR10T to run 3/4-1" out of the box. I have owned 3 AR10Ts, all were 3/4-1 MOA rifles after I learned how to drive them. They could produce the occasional 1/2" group, but I wouldn't give them the <span style="font-weight: bold">1/2 MOA seal of approval</span>

1200$. If lots of extras then 1300 maybe.

I would expect MOA or better with handloads. Also until you've spent a fair amount of time shooting it you may have trouble getting consistent groups.

Re: art 10

Thats not too bad, I think I may make him an offer. I think I would want to put a quad rail handguard on it, it has the smooth fiberglass one now. Which one would yall prefer?

Re: art 10

smooth, they shoot better off bags packs ect (to me anyways) and i dont hang alot off a rifle. how it shoots is more important than looks... spend that money on ammo instead.

Re: art 10

Keep the fibeglass one. In the end you will regret taking it off. Just buy the rail pieces that attach to it if you want to add something.
