Value Opinions? Aero Precision limited edition .308
« on: December 06, 2019, 06:03:53 PM »
An acquaintance has a collection larger than he needs, and sounds like he needs money for something else.  He built this up, claims to have spent $2700.  He figures it's probably worth $2000 but will let it go for $1200.  It's really pretty, so I am considering buying it.  Just wanted to confirm y'all think it's a fair deal.

Aero Precision limited edition 76 upper and lower
chambered in .308
mag pull grip and adjustable stock
26" stainless barrel
CMC single stage flat trigger
foregrip and bipod included
Scope in the color pictures is included, 4x illuminated.
20 and 10 round mags
50-100 rounds goes with it

Kids today don't know how easy they have it. When I was young, I had to walk 9 feet through shag carpet to change the TV channel.

$1200 seems good to me, that’s a giant barrel for not much reason.   

The parts list seems like the value is there.  How many rounds through it ?

Have you personally run it? Reason I ask is because I’ve built a couple .308’s and one of them was really tight to start with and I had to loosen it up a bit to get it to run.....
Living in the remote north hoping Ken doesn’t bring H up here any time soon…..

Definitely worth $1200.  If it has a quality barrel and bolt carrier group he certainly could have that much stick into it.
The question is what you would do with it and if it's worth it for you.

Thanks for all the thoughts everyone!  Thats a good point to ask how many rounds it has seen.  I would guess not a ton, his sister says its been on display in his livingroom ever since it was built.  She is actually the one we know well.  I have not seen or fired the gun yet.  But thats a good thought to try it.

He said the barrel is a RRA varmint barrel if that makes sense?  Wish i knew more about these.  But it looks cool and matches my other 308's so no new ammo to stock.  If it helps out their family to sell it I would like too.
