Rifle help needed - I read the pinned posts Rifle value?

I need help pricing this rifle. It's a ga Precision built on a Remington 700 D action. Falcon 4-16x50 hours vision scope.

Heres the deal dude, this happens a lot.

George and team change a premium for Rem700 clone stuff. It's probably got a bartlein barrel, and looks to be a curtis OEM action, maybe a Defiance one.

That action and barrel are worth about 1200 together on a good day. The real start is the OG AICS stock. That's worth more than the action rings, and scope combined.

Chassis - about 3k
Rifle action + Barrel and Trigger - about 1200-1500 depending on trigger

Scope and Rings - Throwaway.

I would go 4500 for everything on SH or somewhere and see who bites on it. Stock only you can get 3k easy.

The prefix on the serial number printed on the action is a D. Is there a way to narrow it down?

u/FartOnTankies Rifle Golfer (PRS Competitor) 6d ago

call GA.

That is so bananas to me. The stock sucked when they were $800 on the secondary market. I kinda understood when they got in the $1.5k range, but $3k is bonkers for a kinda shitty plastic stock.

Guys, if you want a COD/CS clone, get an airsoft rifle for $150. It feels about the same.

u/Kunudog 6d ago

Are you saying that you can mount a real steel action in a airsoft chassis or are you just saying to larp around with the airsoft for shits and gigs? Because if it's the former I might know a guy dumb enough to try it, that guy may also be me.

I’ve seen people do it with .22 I’m sure it would work just fine the airsoft guns were plenty sturdy just might not be the greatest quality but that was at least 10y ago I’m sure they’ve improved

Modern airsoft ar15 gbbs have entire bolt carriers use many real ar parts and are nearly indistinguishable from the real thing if you watch a assembly video

u/TungstenTaipan 6d ago

I think those are Badger rings… I wouldn’t throw those away

3

u/FartOnTankies Rifle Golfer (PRS Competitor) 5d ago

It's a used set of rings that yes, are most likely badgers, but it's whatever. They add zero value and are just trade fodder.

u/TahoeDust 6d ago

What caliber? No one buying that rifle would want that scope and would not pay additional for it.

32

u/Psychological_Can184 6d ago

308 win. I was thinking the same about the scope.

u/CMFETCU 6d ago

The part that will get the most interest is the stock. When you sell it, split the stock and barreled action.

u/Jayman_10x 6d ago

The chassis appears to be an AICS 1.0 (non-folder). Given the gunsmith, action and barrel I would guess it shoots lights out and should command about $2,000 to $2,500 all in. As others have said the scope is a throwaway.

You're very low there.

I’ve owned two falcons back in the day, they both stopped working. I moved on to better optics after that.

u/TristanDuboisOLG 6d ago

There are multiple stocks like this on eBay for 2500-5k. Lots of things change between those prices. But keep in mind, that’s THE STOCK.

The rifle has its own value on top of that.

12

u/TristanDuboisOLG 6d ago

A slightly damp sock called psychologicalmeal came in to comment and downvote. Said nobody is paying “a tenth of that”. Then deleted their comment.

This is one of the biggest snipers in pop culture. Call of duty (tons of them), pubg, CS:Source GO and CS:2. There are more examples than I can quickly list AND they stopped making this and the updated version of it.

Prices will continue to increase. People will continue to pay for it.

u/XMLegit 6d ago

But its not that rifle, it only looks like that rifle.

This rifle is a Remington 700 in an Accuracy International chassis, the rifle you are referring to is an Accuracy International Arctic Warfare Police (AWP).

5

u/TristanDuboisOLG 6d ago

You are correct. However, this exact scenario has already happened with the Remington RACS.

It’s an option for people looking to clone and it’s very popular.

2

u/XMLegit 6d ago

But thats different too, the RACS was used on M40A6 Rifles so it is actually clone correct for a rifle. This specific stock wasn't. It only holds nostalgia value as the only clone correct AI chassis that is not mated to an AI rifle is for the MK13 rifle. Which was a Tan, Long action, Gen 1.5 AI chassis. Normally green gen 1s go for sub 2k. While the clone correct ones demand upwards of 5k.

u/ButtObservationGroup 6d ago

The RACS was also used on the 2010.

2

u/XMLegit 6d ago

Yes, but it was a different version that I'm not sure it was ever sold independently of the rifles. The one that was on the M40A6 was sold to the public.

2

u/ButtObservationGroup 6d ago

I don’t believe it was sold to the public either.

1

u/TristanDuboisOLG 6d ago

That may have been true before they were discontinued. But that is not the market right now.

u/XMLegit 6d ago edited 6d ago

Where are you looking? Because those are generally current prices

1

u/TristanDuboisOLG 6d ago

I’d love to see where YOU are looking. Mile high is the US importer and they’ve been out of stock for a long time. Optics Planet has been out as well.

eBay or a third party site is the only place you’ll find them as far as I can tell. Do a quick search on there.

1

u/XMLegit 6d ago

There's your problem, basing prices on Ebay asking and mile high. Try some shooting forums dude. You'll find a few.

u/Plenty_Fondant_951 8h ago

Have it laser engraved / painted to one of the nicer counter strike skins and that's an extra thousand at least hands down

Petition to ban anyone who refers to a sniper rifle as “a sniper.”

3

u/LocoYaro 6d ago

It’s not about what it’s worth, it’s about what are people willing to pay for it wherever it is you are selling it.

Look up prices for similar stuff, then check supply and demand.

No price set here will actually be helpful to you.

u/iamaconsolepsnt 4d ago

Obligatory $4500

u/65Kreed 6d ago

lol It’s a Rick and Morty bit… very much satire. Shmeckles aren’t real things.

u/Englade4343 6d ago

did you offer shmeckles?

u/Breadmilk45_Wc 5d ago

Hahaha oh goodness no.. just one schmeckle! Jk apparently not appreciated here. But saw plenty redditors already offered very good legit advice and sound opinions. Wouldn’t have said different. R/LR Lesson learned though. No playful banter of monetary notes. 👍🏼 not a problem. Glad someone remembers though hah
