I didn't even know they made an AR.

That's several hundred dollars cheaper than a canted sight, made with some used parts,  new Century AK.    What a market.

I have one.  Paid a little more than this but not much last year.   These are good rifles.   I changed out the crappy looking grip with a magpul.   Shoots great and eats wolf up.
It is my pickup rifle.   Again, nice gun with free float rail.
May have to get another at that price.

Not bad at all.



This one was just under $400 not including the rear MBUS.

Quite a claim.

Any evidence to support it?

I know the rail is not made in China, I was in a shop today that made just over 1500 of them recently for Mossberg.

Wow, the price on those sure dropped! Pretty sure I remember the gun rags listing them as around a grand MSRP when they first came out.

China DOES make complete ARs.  They're sold in New Zealand and looked down on.  I just bought 3 "mil-spec" carbine tubes from FW Gun, that were marked Made In China.  No complaints - they hold glue fine.

SO Mossberg is buying those parts from china? I DONT THINK SO....

Now if you are saying that the price is dropping because parts are being made in china now...well maybe

China starts making 80% forged lowers to the tune of 4,000,000 a year. Finished lowers start selling for $40. Come to think of it, BCGs are getting really cheap also...

Also I believe they are all new parts now inserted of home guard parts kits.

Unless you're talking about somewhere else (someone had $40 Anderson blem lowers, didn't they?) the blem PSA lowers are $60. You can actually do a bit better. I was checking out shipping on PSA's M193 cans (420 rounds on strippers, in a 30 cal can for $160) and I saw a $200 upper, no BCG/CH so I poked around to see how cheap I could build a basic AR last night.

Upper minus rear sight - $290
Complete lower - $150

So $440 + what, $20 for a cheapo rear sight of some sort. If I were outfitting one of my militia battalions, maybe, () but I'll build my own with quality parts and not worry about it. From what I've heard PTAC stuff has been hit and miss.

Who ever said AR parts are made in china, and sold as Mossberg or any other U.S. brand. better start posting proof.

I don't know they're in Mossberg guns, but the parts are certainly coming in to the US.  I have 3 "mil-spec" buffer tubes marked "Made In China" on the bags - not on the parts.
