I wouldn't count ammo shipping I suppose... If I added ammo to the cost of my guns my Beretta I have had for 13 years would be worth at least $10k.

Shipping, taxes, transfers, and ammo do not count in the valuation of a weapon or project build.

Wow shipping doesn't count? Shipping is an epic price gouge for me. Not the manufacturers fault, or UPS's for that matter, but it REALLY adds up.

I try not to keep tally. I like buying gun stuff in small $100-$200 at a time purchases. It keeps me blind to what I'm really spending

Are we talking about just one rifle? If so I'm guessing low $3k for my Recce because I have 2 optics for it; 1-4x & 6.5-20x. If we're talking about entire AR collection, easily $10k (no NFA stuff yet).

skullbox wrote: I started to calcuate all the ad-ons in addtion to my AR itself. I didn't realize how much I have put into my rifle over the last 4 months. Excluding the ammo I have sent down range, I figured I've dropped about $2300. How does everyone else compare? I am going to guess I would be mid-high on the $ chart.
Anyone care to share? What additions have you made to your rifle?

Waiting on my first AR. Spikes punisher enhanced lower and 16" mid 10" BAR. About $1100 on that, $300 on Troy tritium HK sights. That's all I have now. But very soon there will be about another $170 on accessories and in a couple months about $600 on a T1 and mount. So after that I'll be almost $2200 in.
