I've only owned my Kimber for a short while and I do really like it but I've been really itching to get myself a "Black Rifle" again.
A local gun shop said he was building one right now but I've never heard of Superior Arms before and it was going to be as simple basic as it gets.
I'm gonna take a look at it but thought I would throw the Kimber up on here too.

How Much?

I'm actually just trying to trade it for a AR-15.
I know this Kimber Target II goes for around $850-900

should be a good trade for a very nice AR - not a very basic one tho , you have a very nice kimber with extra mags and a nice case - wish i had an extra AR right now

a basic DPMS sporticle is around $700-750 right now , 16" flat-top , adjustable buttstock , all milspec , case , cleaning kit , two mags , "basic"

the superior arms is OK , they are a recognized name in lowers , but when you talk ARs its more of the components that make it up than just that lower ,

you should be able to get a nice setup in trade - but the dealer needs to make a profit

Don't do it Brian!!!!

I have a receiver here & for around 400 you can get a kit & we'll build it together (after tax season) Plus I don't think Superior is one of the nicest receivers out there.

Bruce, how much do you think I'd have in the whole setup to be complete? I'm really wanting a flat top

damn bruce you ruined it.I was going to spray paint a M44 black and see if we could do a even swap. .

KEEP YOUR KIMBER

about 490-500 even with shipping of the parts kit

Sounds like a plan then Bruce. I'll get to you on this after I get my taxes back

now theres the solution , and i agree

or you can come see me down in my new office in Uhrichsville & I'll 'MAXIMIZE YOUR TAX REFUND' !!!!

Where's the new office?
Give me a ring when ya can, my last phone took a crap and I lost all my #'s.

that sounds a win-win to me , nice rifle and big tax refund to pay for it , cant beat that

I know I'm coming to this a bit late, but I figure I'll throw my two cents at you too:

I happen to have a fair amount of experience with Superior Arms, they're an alright company, not trash, not a maserati, just ok.

Spec, nothin fancy, finish ain't all that great, but the kind of company you'd get a stripped lower from for $110 at the funshows.

But I'd reckon your Kimber is worth more than a Superior Arms AR. Honestly keep the Kimber and just build yer own AR.
