Also is the sport a carbine ?
yes the Sport has the Carbine gas system and the 16 inch barrell.
I am shopping more ofr high end guns now. the reason is that the entry level guns may be 80% more than beofre the crises but the high end guns may be only 20% more.
For example I am buying a NIB Ruger 556 piston gun w/ CHF barrell for 1800 that beofre the bubble might have been 1400-1600.
A Delton Sierra Magpul MOE with the 4150 CL barrel and the MPI/HPT bolt was a fantastic value at $800 in November but now will cost $1600 on gun broker.
So the entry level guns have seen the biggest price raises.
For this reason when I look at guns during this price bubble I only look at those AR's I would not have considered before due to price.
