Well stated, NES is famous for throwing shit and then playing victim or saying the famous “I was just joking” when you strike back. As for the OP I don't have a horse in the race, but am curious as to what the problem is here? Is it making a thread looking for feedback? I mean MA AR’s are selling for $1500 and lowers are selling for $500-$650 and nobody bitches about that. I don’t know I’m just confused why this guy is getting criticized for selling lowers in MA or $250? Honestly seems like a good price for a MA prisoner.Not really, just meeting someone doesn’t equate to “ours” or “mine” at all, if you knew me you’d understand that better, I have zero problems telling people to go f*** themselves in person, none. I just don’t think in this case it applies, unless you’re safely behind your keyboard and just like jumping on the pile without worrying about getting punched in the face (not you specifically, just the norm for online bitching).
I’m a big fan of if you don’t like it don’t buy it. Easiest thing in the world to understand. Whole lot of candy ass complaining around this, NES style.
I actually find this more distasteful than the price arguments.Is it making a thread looking for feedback?
Somewhat true. AIM has Andersons for $40 in stock right now, and my FFL charges $20 for a transfer fee.
yes. A stripped lower just needs a few parts installed with common hand tools
the 80% needs a router and drill
and to the OP... good for you making some money. Yes, your price is lower than some of the full on price gouging that’s out there. You are taking advantage of the market and that’s what free markets allow. Is your price high? For me it is, but if you have customers then it must be somewhere within the acceptable and sustainable range of today’s market.
i just think the thread soliciting feedback was over the top.
I ordered something from AIM last week and it arrived three days later, for what it's worth. And my FFL is open and taking transfers. My FFL is open Saturdays and Sundays, too. So if I really wanted to, I'd say it's probably 85% chance I could have one Wed/Thur this week. Not "today" but I'd rather save $190 and wait three or four days, lol.Yes, but you can't just drive over there and get it right now. And I bet AIM is probably backlogged at least a week or more, if not 2-3 weeks. A lot of distributors (even ones that only sell to FFLs) are the definition of "really f***ed up" right now, and that's being
very polite. Some FFLs tell me "I have dists with stuff in stock and they havent shipped me shit. Then I have others who have sold nearly everything and im getting spits of this and that on backorders" etc. To say that the industry isnt in some form of chaos
right now is an understatement.
Could you still get a lower for $60 or so in a few days? Probably, with enough legwork, but I bet the 3 mouseclick option is actually a lot harder than you might be led to believe it is right now.

I assumed he was an FFL, yeah.
The ATF has posted they arrested one guy for two sales trying to make a profit, and I assume said guy didn't make a forum thread about it, lol.

I don't need any more lowers. But more people have lowers is a net good thing for the 2A community. If they buy them from you, or anyone else. Their money, their choice.thats amazing good on you man, I’d say keep on doing that, and then sure the wealth of knowledge with everyone else here so they can get in on that too!

Maybe I just have a warped sense of humor but I don't think the intent of his posting was entirely to encourage itrader
feedback...

Until I read this you came off kind of like a dick. Maybe you still will I haven't finished reading the rest of the thread. But I do like this statement. Rock on! And as far as gouging meh. I'm sure everybody knew what they were buying and everyone purchasing these has at least 1 AR, most likely multiple. In they're safeComrade, unlike in Mother Russia where bears drink vodka and commies make up the law of the land as they go with verbal statements, here in the US of f***in' A we have a legislature and executive branch and a overall process of how we turn a bill into a law. God Bless the Stars and Stripes in the Land of the Free and the Home of the Brave #MAGA. Healey's shit may fly where the Red's exist, not here though. These colors don't run!

What is a pre-Maura?
Did your lower previously identify as an Anderson but is now post-op and identifying as a Maura? I'm more confused than your lower is about its gender/identity.
I think we all need to ask our local schools to teach basic civics again and sing those kindergarten songs about how bills are introduced and voted on and passed by the legislature and signed by the executive branch of government. Not sure where a state attorney general fits in that narrative in making new laws or altering previously codified ones.
Threads like this one are good reminders of why places like NH are awesome.
Good old NES. Where people criticize other people for buying over priced uppers or ammo when they could go to "someone else" while never telling you who that "someone else" is. Per usual many constructive responses here. So being that a good portion of gun owners in MA don't know who the "someone else" is, paying 250 for a lower is still cheaper than buying a used $1200+ AR from classifieds. The op is a very nice guy. Wish you the best of health and luck in the medical field.
