Yeah, tax stamp included. I bought the parts and Josh-L put it together.

Approximate part prices.

Lower: $100+shipping+transfer = $130
Upper: $140
Barrel: $190
Bolt: $175
LPK: $60
Rail: $75 (huge YHM sale score)
Mag Block: $200
Stock kit: $65
Grip: $30
Trigger Guard: $20
Sights: I paid $100 used but they are $215 normally.
9mm Buffer: $25
9mm Hammer: $10
VFG: $25
Stamp: $200
Mags: $20 each
Shipping estimate for all parts (5 different places I think): $50
$1610 or so plus mags and suppressor.
Why did I add this up?:(

May be able to get it cheaper going through MAS or Josh, but you'll have to pay tax too.t

Not quite all of it. You forgot the can and stamp. Isn't that a Trident? So probably another $800-$900??

Yeah it always hurts when you add up how much you actually have tied up. There are also cheaper options it just depends on what your end goal is.

Thanks for moving this to the rifle section.


That's an expensive little rifle Dustin. I was thinking on spending around $1000-$1200 max. I guess that goal might be impossible to meet. I might be better off buying one complete rather than trying to build one.

If you build a 9mm without all of the stamps it willl be significantly less expensinve... but not nearly as cool! lol... I try not to think about the money that was spent.

It adds up over a regular 5.56 build. The mag block is an instant 200. The bolt and upper receiver are more expensive than 5.56 too. Then 200 for each of the two stamps required for suppressed SBR. All on top of the standard 16" 5.56 base price. You can definitely have a 9mm SBR for less than I spent, but to get to mine and Rusty's coolness level you gotta spend some $$.

I've got a buddy in KS that is selling his 10.5" vanilla 9mm upper for like $4XX.
