Freedom Rifles for $280.00, everyone should have at least one or two....

Dang, hope these are around friday, I always miss out on deals like these

Yep, out of stock

I'd put it on credit if it were a 10.5" barrel and a braced lower...
Didn't need one anyway...

These always turn into $1000 rifles by the time you add all the upgrades. Not that it's a bad thing.

"A2"
They never hsve actually A2s...

They are very decent rifles for the money. It's great to have a couple of functional inexpensive AR's in the lineup.

Sorry, I meant the front sight post only.

Also typical for PSA to run out of things frequently. I don't mind that model though, where the early bird gets the worm for a ridiculous price. Just gotta check their email blast regularly. I check all the gun ad emails usually about 5 times a day, and rest assured I will let you guys know if I find a deal worth sharing.

 

[ACO]

I just wish someone has actual A2 uppers for a reasonable price.

Best to build it yourself in my experience. I bought one of these (link below) for $85 and used to to make a AR-22 that visually looked like an old M4 carbine. CMMG sells a 22 barrel with an M4 profile and the sight/plate already installed, bought that. Added the classic M4 furniture and a B5 stock that looks like a mil-spec carbine stock so I could get the look without the crappy rattle, boom done.

You will see bad reviews on these, basically because they were made out of spec to varying degrees. The one I got was entirely serviceable with no visual defects, worked perfectly, so maybe just luck? You get what you pay for, there is a risk, but Brownell's has a return policy. They also sell all the supporting parts (A2 handle sight, etc) that most do not carry. I would think you could buy a barrel and the supporting parts, including replica A2 handguard halves, for not that much money there. If the receiver itself does not pan out then come back and buy the Colt mil spec one for twice as much .

This one is an even better deal at $80. Canadian C7 version that has the A1 rear sight.

Thanks for the heads up. I was able to score one

 

[FeralGSXR]

My pleasure. For all that didn't we will find more in time.

For what it's worth I see PSA as having the best lower deals but several companies are putting out nice uppers. I recently purchased a 7.62x39. I don't recall at this moment but I think it was under $200. I was swapping it with other lowers but just bought another PSA lower so I can rattle can this one. What use is a cheap gun if you can't paint it?

PS: I'll post a pic in 8 months when the lower shows up

JSE has been sending emails with bare A1 and A2 upper receivers for under $60.
