But I just can't find the damn RAS anywhere!*

    * Gunbroker has one but it is $530 and is "lightly" used with no rail panels or accessories. In a semi-intoxicated moment the other night I almost bought it but the seller only takes USPS MO or certified check.....and then that price! Nah.
    not sure where are seeing the FN's for $1700.00, Gun prime has them right now for $1549.00. Thats still cheaper and easier then buying the colt A4 for $999.99 and adding the rail, rail covers and folding rear sight. I don't care about roll marks at this point. only 2 20 inches I have currently is a windham and a super cheap PSA kit on a psa lower.

    The FN MSRP is $1839. For a long time it sold for $1699-$1799. Currently, it’s anywhere from $1499-$1599. Some dealers are still asking $1799, but the rifle can be had for around $1500 pretty easily with minimal searching.

    Not sure which FN firearm you were looking at on gunprime but the one I'm referring to is https://gunprime.com/products/fn-ame...0-barrel-36320

    $1700 (well, $1699 if you want to split hairs).

    The Colt AR15A4 is down to $999 at AU, but that doesn't help with the rail...

    On a side note, anyone else remember when the KAC M5 rails were selling for $100 or less on ebay? It makes me wish I had bought more. I think I still have two sitting in my "special rails" box along with the RIS II rails and some others.

    I'm surprised that the Chinese haven't jumped in to fill the void.

    Just get the FN. Seriously, the current Colt A4 isn’t imbued with any magic pixie dust.
