I am sitting here looking at two stripped DPMS lowers that I probably won't be able to get parts for to finish for a couple of months.

What do you think - sell them or keep them?

Not really. These are the last two from a order from before all this stupidity started.

Stupidity is right. If you can make some money and want to sell.

If I part with them, I am not out to screw anyone. Going rate on GunBroker seems to be $350 and and up - which is completely stupid in my opinion. People must have lost the minds!

All depends on which way your morale compass is pointing and what affects its direction. Me,I would keep them. This nonsense isn't going to last forever.

If you sell for what a willing and informed buyer will pay at any given point in time, you are not "screwing" anyone. Sell them now and buy what you are looking for when you can afford it.

Thanks for the offer but I believe I would have to pass. I wouldn't want you to have to deal with the shipping hassles...

I agree, but I also have a hard time willing letting someone screw themselves too. It absolutely baffles me that people are so willing to part with that kind of money so easily or freely. Especially on ARs...

You have said all I need to hear to know that your character is impeccable. That said, I know you will know what is right for you to do.

That's why I put mine on Gunbroker. If somebody wants to spend crazy money, that's fine. Just, don't want to crap where I eat.
Good luck,
Tom

Put em on GB starting at a penny and let the market dictate the price. That way you aren't gouging anyone. They bid what they want to pay.

Sell one and use that money to build the other.
