So my wife won a fmk 556 lower in a nra auction years ago prob like 13 years ago. We got it for like 20 usd, so being dumb at the time i bought a cheap delton kit to fit it. Took it to a smith and the hand rail doesnt fit at the time i got it for like 140 usd but it doesnt correctly fit its crooked turned . Rather than being square its more diamond in shape , the gunsmith a vietnam vet said he didnt understand why it didnt fit properly saying something had to be defective on the threads. Regardless im going to try and get 200-300 for it then buy a 500 - 600 usd 556 rifle. Any suggestions? Will prob be doing that this week. and buying a Taurus pistol also. Plan on getting both for less then 800.
>>64407555Of course my budget for 800 may or may not include shipping. But im not really counting ffl fees.
>>64407555>>64407559the lower looks fine, just get a new upper. you can get one from PSA for like $300-$400. as for the rail, I think I own one and it's pretty trash.
>>64407555If that's the actual gun the smiths just a retard who didn't seat the handguards correctly before trying to insert screws and tighten it down. You can see how fucked it is in the pic
>>64407555no offense but you sound really poor. Id focus on the handgun stuff and buying ammo. Its more practical. Get a police trade in glock or M&P. They typically run like 350-400 online. Glock mags are super cheap. Holster are widely available. 9mm is as low as its probably ever going to be moving forward.
>>64407571 (me)>>64407559wait, is it one of those polymer lowers? if so, disregard my advice. replace it with a PSA, they're alright.
>>64407583Oh no im not poor i own many rifles and pistols i just wanted to take this cheap crap and make something cheap but usable from it. Ill prob put it in a safe for another 13 years lolI have plenty of pistols. Its just a fucked up project i want to rid myself of in return get a cheap AR.
>>64407590Yep Polymer FMK and everyone i have talked too didnt like them, prob why they where auctioned for charity and my wife won.
>>64407555nice /k/ot
>>64407675yeah, I heard they break.
I paid prob paid like 210 for this rifle with the lower delton parts and the labor to have a smith jank it up. Im not interested in modifying it myself or taking it to a smith i will sell it prob for 200 - 300 and lay down the rest to get a cheap AR. Nothing fancy. What is a better brang for a cheap AR.Radical ArmsRugerPalmetto ArmoryDiamondbackLooking for a good cheap base start to add mods.I already have some good stuff just want to get something for fun.
>>64407678TY but she isnt for sell
>>64407583I have a Glock , SW, Ruger, and Diamondback, Beretta, Hipoint pistolsI just want a Taurus not micro but the full sized they are cheap and i want one.
HiPoint just started making a cheap ar15.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hi-Point_HP-15
there's no reason to buy old cheap stuff anymore fudds
>>64408102>needs a rear sight
>>64408118duh, it's an AR for $250 of course it doesn't come with an optic. You better be able to afford one after only spending $250
>>64408191redo your math on that bro
>>64408193oh I didn't see that the upper needed a bcg and carry handle for $90 more. Still that's a great deal
>>64408198everyone wants the front sight taken off and that's a hasslethey have a sightless upper don't they now?>I own this setup since obama days
>>64407555Get an 11.5 PSA AR unironically
>>64408587bless your heart.
