I dont think we'll see much cheaper.

I agree. Production costs have to prevent them from going too much lower. I work for a manufacturer, generally MSRP is about double production cost. So assume a production cost of even as low as $300-$400, by the time you add shipping and distributor markup, I can't see them going much lower.

For those prices. it's even hard to put together a parts gun.

They cant get much cheaper than they are now. You might want to pick up several extra receivers for when the prices skyrocket again

Ok thanks guys... Really eyeballing the bushmaster! IMO the 687.00 is tough to pass up! Peace toolman
