The biggest things that made this platform attractive were:
- Cheap rifle
- Even cheaper surplus ammo
Neither of these things are true anymore. Change my mind

You are not wrong, it’s come full circle bullshit pretty much

5.45 is fun to shoot

Indeed, but plenty of cartridges are fun to shoot. If 5.56 was able to be found at 10 cents a round people would be like "5.45 who?"

You’d have to pay me to take that. Looks like the only thing intact is the bcg and dust cover.

Just save another 300 dollars and get a rifle that isn't sliced up.

Are they easy to find?

Your locals you could probably get something for that much. Or online (same thing) or for example American made like PSA or RAK. But that’s me.

Basically $1900 in before receiver and rivets. If you can build it yourself it’ll be like $2100-$2200 total. If you need to pay to have it built you’re looking at another $500 ish depending on who builds it. You could probably buy a complete rifle for less pretty easily.

Ouch! $1500 before you even get started assembling. Then another $350 for the original barrel.

1500 for that pile is crazy talk.

If it was a complete rifle

Not one bit. Tack welded brake when the cheapest ammo is corrossive, ground bayonet lug, not demilled, and overpriced. 1600ish shipped for that garbage is a horrible price. It'd be cheaper to buy an OG barreled kit than to buy this.
Are the kits from what a country Gtg?
They are wildly overpriced. Your best bet would sourcing one on the files.
Well of course. But are they isd or circle 10s
Circle 10.
