A turd is a turd is a turd!! BUT it is all in how you sell that turd that makes some dumbass feel like they just got the deal of the century.

Winning - Most prolific use of the words "mil spec" and "military specification" in a single, ridiculously long, @#$%ing BS item description of 2013 thus far.
LOSING - Selling a chicom equipped, marginal quality parts AR for $3k+ to somebody who either: a) is too @#$%ing stupid to know any better; or b) is so #$%^ing desperate that they just don't care.
I think some of our Kentucky contingency here on the Hide needs to pay this uber-special, "mil spec" outfit in Louisville a visit and find out the super secret manufacturing process that goes into putting together such as "Super High Quality" firearm.

Re: Polished turd of the year
Damn! What a piece of shit! I would like to shake the sellers hand and give them an award for salesman of the year!
Do people with the internet not know how to use google? I wouldn't pay $400 for that rifle, and I wouldn't be caught dead shooting it with all that chinese shit stuck to it.

Re: Polished turd of the year
I recently sold a carbine for what I thought was big money so I took another rifle to the shop and put it on the wall for well over double what I spent putting it together. HNIC said it would be on the wall tomorrow. Sold for full price first day...

I now know to ask......."Is the bolt made from 158 Carpenter Steel? This question will be asked of every potential rifle I buy in the PX.

Re: Polished turd of the year
OK....first time ever seeing/reading "CHICOM"....that's Hilarious. Definitely need to throw that out there at the gun show coming up this weekend as I'm sure there will be plenty of CHICOM AR's selling for ridiculous money.

Re: Polished turd of the year
I have 6 AR's and my low end rifle is a Colt SP-6920MPB with the following mods/upgrades:
Surefire X600C light
Geissele SSA trigger
Spikes T2 H Buffer
Eotech XPS-2
Eotech 3X magnifier
BCM handle
If I compare mine with that "mil-spec" frankengun, mine would be worth about $5k in this market. Thankfully, I don't need the cash so I'll just keep it and continue building my collection.
jbh, since you got banned, I don't expect a response. Nothing wrong with you making money, but you are dead wrong for using fancy wording and misleading verbiage to portray your gun as a top of the line rifle.
You obviously realized that it's possible to use fancy pseudo-military jargon to beguile gun enthusiasts who are simply trying to buy a gun in the face of a possible gun ban. You're worse than an opportunist. You're a charlatan.

Re: Polished turd of the year
Original link says "this auction has ended but has been relisted" with a link, the current auction is same craptastic pos, so apparently ole dickwagon didn't like the 3,025 sell price(which was below his retarded ass reserve) so he relisted it, what a mouthbreather

Re: Polished turd of the year
I'll tell you what's sad. I posted an AR on the broker yesterday that won't bring near as much as some of the crap I've seen on there. Some douche has a pieced together ar w/ a counter sniper scope that hit $4000 sometime last night. His description was very super snipery too. My honest description w/o all the super ninja crap will not net the big bucks...

pretty sure b/c it met the reserve and didn't sell the seller was likely bidding on it himself......so not only is he selling a turd, he's bidding up said turd to try and squeeze the pennies out of it, ridiculous

Re: Polished turd of the year
People that have never owned a firearm are rushing to buy an "assault weapon" before the "ban" and actually have no idea what they are bidding on.
Wasn't it PT Barnum that said "A sucker is born every minute?"

Re: Polished turd of the year
So many people absolutely refuse to educate themselves on rifles. Then again, so many people refuse to educate themselves on all sorts of things these days. What's worse is that these people will likely have kids. I guess ignorance does breed more ignorance. If you have the money, I guess go for it. We can only hope they learn from their mistakes.

Re: Polished turd of the year
Sad part is the next rifle the idiot listed is $2,700+ already.
It must have been the "custom" in the title, as in "custom" chinese shit which is way better than regular chinese shit.
Also, if you read the "manufacturer" part and then look at the pics, he took the pictures in his piece of shit shed (I mean custom factory) and it still sold.

Wow....just wow.
You guys have got to stop posting crap like this, I'm trying to maintain my high moral character and resist the urge to sell my PSA 16" middy to some unsuspecting moron for a vulgar profit. Judging by what I've seen if I kick in a couple of GI "millitary spec" mags and a couple hundred rounds of "military spec" 55 fmj Herters and I should be able to get 4 grand out of it.

A lot of these NR auction winners on GB are shills by the seller. Guns are bid up and when you check often relisted. Too many of them to be all deadbeat bidders.

I think he's fishing for a sucker, bidding on his own stuff to create the illusion of demand.
The buy it now price is all designed to give the impression of value.
I think he won his last auction and that's why it re-listed. Don't get too greedy this time.......N-K
I couldn't find a single lie in his ad.
jbh5000 You are wasting your time on gunbroker.
You are a marketing natural.
WTF? I want to not like you, but damn.
You're really good.
You want to sell some of my shit?
I could give you 10% just for brokering the deal, but somehow I'd end up with a bunch of Leeper's, and UTG goodies............... and somehow I'd owe YOU money.
