I have just bought the last of my two prebans,and while I bought them at a decent price what I would like to know is how should I go about selling one of them. It's a DPMS low ser# 21x with an M16 20 inch A2 upper,with bayo lug and flash-compensater! It's one of those E MP 5.56 nato 1/7 barrels! I haven't taken it to the range yet,chamber looks smooth and barrel is very good! Should I sell it outright of piece it out? It's an early cast and has the raised stops on the fire and safe switch! How much should I ask for the full rifle(850.00),or say sell the lower for 6 or say 650,00? Will the market bear this much? Or am I just wishfully thinking? Want to know because I am going to take it to the EE,and don't want to embarass myself! Thanks to any replys! Bob

Quoted: It's a DPMS low ser# 21x with an M16 20 inch A2 upper,with bayo lug and flash-compensater! Did you check the full serial number? "DPMS 800-578-3767 Below 10300 - Pre-Ban. Some or all lowers are cast. Black in color. Some lowers are Stainless Steel" [url]http://www.ar15.com/content/legal/serialNumberList.html[/url] |

The way I understand it, selling just the lower turns it into a post ban lower. It has to keep all it's "evil" features to retain it's pre-ban status. There is a thread on here titled "Want references on transferring pre-ban lowers?" that explains the whole mess. Basically you have to keep the whole thing, sell the whole thing, or buy a new, pre-ban upper and sell that with the lower. The lower by itself is technically worth no more than a new one is today.
