Price???

[Thad]

What is a good price for my new Bushmaster A3 AR shorty, includes case two 5 round clips, both stocks and sling? I was told $1699 regular and $1450 for me, is this good?

I think 1450 is the regular lol

1699 sounds like a chump price.

Thanks that is what I thought. I cannot seem to find too many around so I thought I would ask the good people here. I should check Questar I think.

I may have been looking at the wrong rifle. The one I was quoted for has steel sights and carry handle whereas the ORC does not. My mistake, do not know if it makes much difference? Bushmaster site says $1085 for ORC version but does not come with steel sights adjustable stock or carry handle.

Who is it quoting you the price?? I saw that one of the CGN dealers is selling new ones at 1495. what is ORC?

FWIW, a retailer in Vancouver had a Bushmaster for 1699.00 retail. Collapsable stock and fixed stock, flat top w/carry handle, 1 5/30 mag, hardcase and sling. Another had the same kit with 200 rounds through it for 1575.00 but it came with two 5/30 magazines. Not ORC but they got sold for what they were asking.

A CGN sponsor has this Bushmaster kit advertised at 1495.00. It was a toss up between this kit, a LMT or Stag until I stumbled on a used Bushmaster on the EE.

greentips, ORC=Optics Ready Carbine, ie. no iron sights.

Thanks Misfire, you have given me all the advice I need. I made a good purchase! Just wanted to make sure I was not paying too much, no point in finding out after the money is spent.

Greentips it is my local gunshops quote.
