PreBan Carbon 15

Dryridge · 06-14-2007, 03:26 AM

Looking to sella Pre Ban Professional Ord. Carbon 15.
It is still in factory box w/all paperwork blank. It has been shot less than 100rds total. It is a custom factory order gun w/18.5" match stainless bull barrel. Lightest AR ever made.Comes w/scope/mts/orig. carbon fiber clip mag/box/all paperwork. This gun was purchased by an elderly gentleman several years ago as a coyote gun. He shot his cat w/it first night out and put it away. I bought it from him 2yrs ago and have only sighted it in and checked a few loads. It is VERY accurate. I am not a black gun guy. My son wanted it, I got it, he has never ever picked it up. He is now away to college and into old lever guns or Mod. 70s. So, it is up for sale.

I am flexible on price. I know the old man that orig bought it paid $1640. He was an ffl dealer (now deceased)

Make an offer on gun as you see it in the photo. PLUS actual shipping charges and an FFL handling fees that may incur. Lets Dikker! Consider trades of high end varmint rifles, lever guns or Mod 70s

Thanks for Looking

Dscp,

Well, as for groups. I shot some of the winchester bulk pack varmint loads and they put up sub moa but barely @ 0.912". I tried aload I had for 26" bull bbl gun I had and they only did a bit better than 2moa....if I recall I think it was 1.764" for 5 shots. However it was too slow powder and too light bullet. Then I tried some match ammo 10rds, ALL TEN RDs WERE MEASURED AT 0.446" ....again that was a 10 shot group, off a good bench rest and no magazine...feeding one at a time as the mag got in the way of the bench. What a pain putting the mag in release bolt, feed a rd, pull the mag. fire, repeat x 10...LOL!!!
I live in West By God Virginia. You know the place God built on Saturday so he come here and relax on Sunday!!!
As for price. I am not set. I know the value of these vary greatly according to your geographic location. Now here they are bringing $900 or so, Other areas $1200 or more. I guess I am hoping for somewhere in that range. I know what I have in it....$1250. I have put 42 rds through it. The old fellow that bought it new said he put 17 through it and gave me the rest of the box he had. I pulled one to see how it was loaded. Thus....42 I put through it.
Trades. You bet. Whatcha Got? Not real into handguns but I will look. No Shotguns. Rifles...I will look at any heavy bbl or any mod 70 or older lever gun. Also about any bolt action.

Any more ???'s just ask.

Thanks for looking,

Dave

PS: I am not sure if you know, but this is the company that Bushmaster bought to get the patent for the Carbon fiber gun. They are no longer made, a bit of acollector and yet all bushmaster parts will go right on it. (of course of the parts are suppose to interchange) It is the lightest one ever made...even with the match bbl it weighs less than 6pds. These new varmint uppers weigh more than this gun does complete w/scope and full mags!!!! I can imagine it would be a dream to carry.
