The few shops listed in the yellow pages in my area have ridiculous prices on their ARs.

Anyone in eastern. VA. know of a shop that doesn't try to make their months profit off one rifle?

TIA!

Why not purchase via the internet and just transfer to a local FFL dealer? http://www.Gunbroker.com and http://www.GandRTactical.com are both good places to start.

G and R Tactical just started carrying Bushmasters and Grant ensures they are GTG before selling. He also carries LMT if you're looking for higher quality/hard use AR.

I would do the transfer as well. That way you aren't oversold or sold an Olympic. Forget finding one at a show or looking in the Trading Post as they are trying to get their money out of it after being ripped off.

....near Richmond is the shop I generally frequent. Tim (Templar) used to work there actually.......They had a Colt or two on the rack last time I was in there. Didn't see any prices though....

Another vote for doing a transfer. You will likely come out ahead even after shipping and transfer fees, not to mention getting a better product if you are uncertain about what you want exactly.

Thanks for the replies.

I was trying to give the local guy my $$$ but I don't want to just get ripped off in the process.

Can anyone recommend some good online deals on Stag 2T, RRA or S&W( MP15 Tactical )?

I purchased a Stag Model 2 last year for $775 delivered from a dealer advertising on GT. I can't remember who it was and cannot do a search back far enough to find him. The MSRP hasn't increased since then but now the least expensive ( that I can find ) is $875 delivered for the 2 and $1050 for the 2T ( the one I want ).

TIA!!

Both DeGoff's in Mechanicsville and Greentop's in Ashland carry the S&W M&P's.

DeGoff's had a couple Colt 6520's and 6721's the last time I was there, and they usually try to keep 6920's in stock when they can.

Don't forget the S&W $100 rebate (http://www.smith-wesson.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/CustomContentDisplay?langId=-1&storeId=10001&catalogId=11101&content=49802&sectionId=10002) on ARs through April 30. DeGoff's had the M&P 15T for $1399 last I saw.

Stonewall arms in Winchester does have a decent selection of well priced ar's.

Most AR's in one place I have seen in VA is at A&P Arms in Hampton. They are on Mercury blvd and usually have a wall full of AR's.

Try A&P arms in Hampton or Lynnhaven Arms in VB.They have a good selection but prices are about average. Shooters Inc. in Norfolk quoted me a price on an M&P 15T of $1250. Ask for Jerry. I wanted one fast and he was backordered so I got one from GunsAmerica.com for about the same price. Try Gunbroker.com also. Just remember to add in shipping and transfer costs when price comparing. Better hurry though $100 rebate is ending April 30th. ;)

Yeah I bought my Smith & Wesson M&p15x from A&P Lynnhaven Arms in VB for $1100 out the door + i'll get $100 back from rebate.

The Armory also carries S&W, Oly, DPMS, and Bushmaster rifles. They are discussing POF currently; if I hear correctly and they are now a dealer for CMMG as well.

If you are going to drive to Lynnhaven; the Armory is probably closer from the Peninsula.

Update:

I just called Degoffs and they are holding an M&P15 Tactical for me. I'll be picking it up in a few hours after I pick my son up from school.

Now to cross my fingers that this M&P15 will take PMAGS.

Thanks again to all for the info.

Nice carbine.

DeGoff's manages to pack a whole bunch of stuff into a small shop.

I've had good luck runnin Barnaul steel cased stuff through my 6920 with the Crane extractor upgrade.
