Default New Rifle...also new to AR15's

Just got this upper in the mail this past Monday. It's a YHM lightweight carbine upper 1/7 twist rate. The lower is a PSA with a Magpul MOE lower build kit. I've been sitting on it for a while now since my upper has been on back order through midway. I'm wanting to do a red-dot sight and a light and laser. Any suggestions?

Also, just out of curiosity, what would be the current market value of this rifle as is right now (with all the high demand/low supply stuff going on)?

That's a nice rifle. I've seen a basic Delton go for $1800. This is obviously much better quality. I would say at 2k or more depending on where and how you sell it.

I'll give you 5 bucks and pay the shipping. Nice crisp bill too, straight off the press

beautiful gun.

Luckily the markets starting t come down a bit. 6 weeks ago I would ahve said 1900 bucks.

But 1100 new windhams and bushmaster are out there now for the taking at some dealers as stock slow fills up again.

There is still a huge shotrage and now is a greta time to sell again. no mistake about that.

But its less frenzied now IMO than 4-6 weeks ago.

If we just spent half of that money on supporting the NRA, we wouldn't have to worry about maintaining a stash "just in case"

Thanks guys. Despite all the enticing offers I don't think I could put a dollar value on any of my guns right now with all these ban talks.
