I'm going to the Gun Show @ the NE Philly Armory this weekend.
I want to by a Black Gun ie; AK-47, M-16, AR-15 ect.
I have some good knowledge on hard ware and MSRP pricing.
But I can only afford used.
I would like to bone up on the used price market so I am educated enough to negotiate a reasonable deal on Sunday.
Any websites that will inform me of realistic prices?
I don't want to get taken.
Any help would be much appreciated. http://www.thebassbarn.com/forum/images/smilies/smile.gif

No....I'm looking for a legal semi-auto.
There are lots of them around.
Especially in gun shows.
I just want a benchmark to help me in my buying decisions. :)

The black rifle is considered the AR-15, M4, not the AK. Even a true AK is not easy to find anymore. Their are plently of the AK clones out there, but not a ture AK. Fully auto's are available, but you must be class 3. That is not something that is done with a couple papers and a hour or two. If you want to know more about the class 3 license shoot me a PM and I'll explain otherwise it's a lil long. Many of the clones are or where going at ok prices, but since the way the election turned out they went sky high. You can expect prices from 700-1500(and +). I know of a place thats selling olympic arms AR's for $669 new. Olympic is ok, not a bushmaster or a DPMS, but ok. It also all depends on if the rifle has any upgrades to it (flash hider, removeable pinnicty rail, colaspable stock, etc). Basicly though bare bones you could be looking around 700-800 roughly. Hope this helps.
