Hey everyone, I'm expecting the Seekins SP15 lower I ordered to arrive at my FFL this weekend, so I'm planning to put put my DPMS rifle back up for sale. I was originally trying to sell it for $650-750 (with no takers) before the madness to raise some cash to start my own build, but decided to keep it until I could secure another rifle when things got crazy. Now that it appears the ban push is losing ground I want to put it back up for sale once I have my lower in my hands and hopefully make a quick sale. My question is, what is it worth in the current market? I know its a cheap rifle, and I'm not out to screw anyone over, but I don't want to be robbed either. Honestly I have no idea what these are going for.
It's a DPMS "Lo-Pro Classic" - 5.56 chamber, A2 stock, Flat top, 16" bull barrel, 1x9" twist, target crown (muzzle is not threaded), no ejection port cover or forward assist. I bought it new in '08 right after Obama was elected not knowing anything about AR's and it has sat in it's hard case ever since for the most part. I've put around 250 rounds down the pipe (plus/minus 50ish), mostly Federal .223 55gr. FMJBT. It's really nice for targets/bench/longer shots, but it's a pig for any type of up close close/mobile work. I do recall shooting something like a 2.5" 5 shot group at 250 meters, I think the tightest 3 were less than 2". Maybe that's not real impressive, but I thought it was pretty good for one of my first attempts at shooting that far and using run-of-the-mill Federal ball and a wadded up sock on a picnic table for a rest.
It's currently wearing Promag back up irons, a Nikon Monarch 2.5-10x42 Mil Dot, a CAA adjustable stock with a battery compartment (bought as the full kit with spring and buffer tube), aftermarket pistol grip with storage, a UTG four rail hand guard and a Mako VFG with the flashlight holder. I was previously trying to sell it with everything but the scope, but now I'm thinking I should just strip it down and return it to it's original form and sell off the accessories separately. What do you guys think? (P.S. I'm including the factory hard case, owner's manual, and the two black mags it came with... keeping the other 4 pictured)

Please don't flame me... I realize just about everything here except the scope is pretty much second rate junk in the eyes of most and many of you wouldn't touch this gun with a 10 foot pole. I'm not asking you to buy it. I just want to know what's a fair price for me to tell the guy asking me about it.![]()
