Because it's me.  I'd rather under promise than over promise.  I still got dozens of fucktarded questions about it.

What's the difference between LMT ambi CH and KAC ambi CH? Looks very similar to the naked (untrained) eye...

At one point I had KAC ambis on all my -15s,-25s,-30s.

At the time they were pretty widely available, it seems most thought they weren't worth twice the price of the current trend of Geissele/Raptor/whatever.

When I sold them all (I prefer an aluminum latch) they took a while and I lost my ass.

I figure they lowered volume because they weren't selling many.

Damn. I can think of a similar story... KAC Bipods. They were sitting on shelves but as soon as they became hard to find/discontinued, people selling them for $1,000+ now. I paid a huge premium for one to complete the look, but it is what it is. Cheaper than the Ferrari game, that's for damn sure.

If the bipods are going for that much then I'm putting one on GB.

They are awesome bipods but not worth 4x an Atlas.

Take a close look at the pin holes on that Folding Front Sight Gas Block. They’ve been butchered pretty bad. That item has been previously listed multiple times.

They seem to bring an easy $800 right now. Pretty sure the last NIB one that went on GB pulled over $1K.

Saw that. That FSGB may be worth it to build a SR16 FSGB clone shooter with Marvin Pitts barrel and dimples?

Yeah, I noticed it was pretty rough looking. I thought the value of the other parts might actually make it worth picking up and trying to repair for some people is all.

All I wanted was to trade it for a NIB SR-30 upper, the later style with CHF barrel and smaller FH.  Couldn't find any takers.

Now I hope I can score 2-3 of the backordered 30 uppers when they hit.

I was looking at those completed in Gunbroker, anyone know why there is such a swing in prices for them? Some have gone for $2700...all the way to $3900 for a stock one. Makes sense why this one went so high due to the extras, but other ones seem new in box only.

I'm glad @762AR25 got almost $4k for it, but I'm not sure I'd go as far as calling it good deal for the buyer. Hard for those of us who are used to paying less than MSRP to consider anything a good deal right now.

Yes, but they didn't all become available at the same time from all vendors. There was plenty of time to get several if you had your head on straight.
