Sell two, buy one

[bonkers1919]

I am sitting on the fence about this.

1. Do I sell a Diamondback AR and a Stag Arms AR then use the money to buy a Daniel Defense AR?

2. Do I Keep both and add upgrades as necessary?

 

[Bigtanker]

Is this just a range gun or competition/training rifle?

 

[451_Detonics]

what does the Daniel Defense AR do better than what you own already?

I've sacrificed quantity for quality on several occasions. I've never regretted it.

Same here.

 

[bonkers1919]

There are items I drool over, guns, motorcycles, etc. This is much like me trading two Yamaha motorcycles for the Ducati.

Quality wins every time!

Hmm. When i a younger Soldier and intoxicated i always believed it was quantity over quality......Oh we're talking about firearms....Yes quality....

 

[JettaKnight]

Yup, same here, sold two to buy one.

Does one of the two serve a different purpose than the other (i.e. One is a lightweight 16" with a red dot and the other a SPR with a 2-10x. Scope)? If so, I'd say save/upgrade later.

If there both serving the same purpose, I'd personally think about it differently. You can swap BCGs, barrels, rails, etc, etc, etc.... And make either of those uses nice as a DD. Put a spreadsheet together and see what makes the most sense. Maybe selling both makes the most sense. Maybe selling the upper off of the stag and buying a dd upper makes the most sense. You won't know until you lay it all out there.

But one things for sure.....you're going to take a hit selling those rifles. Take that into account.

I had a buddy that thought like in college. He was never picky about what he did with his gun.....oh I'm not talking about firearms. Herpes is not funny.

I would go for it.

I plan on doing the same thing whenever the next panic comes into swing.

Does selling the two and buying the DD leave room for a quality optic? A DD with a Trijicon MRO would be a sweet setup.

The past few years I've been on a quality kick. My collection is noticeably smaller than it once was. But everything I have now is quality and exactly the way I want it. For the most part, I no longer keep a gun if it doesn't have a purpose. With the exception of a few sentimental ones. But thats just my opinion.

I have gotten to be the same way. This past year has been a sell and trade fest. I even got rid of sentimental stuff passing them to other family. It was a great move and am pleased to say the least.

 

[RustyHornet]

I recently last year sold three to get one. Haven't regretted it and don't see myself regretting it. Definitely quality over quantity. That's where my whole collection is headed, that's the plan at least.....

 

[BogWalker]

Two for one. You can only shoot one at a time anyways.

 

[BOLTGUN]

I have sold full rifles/pistols to fund high level optics and Custom Precision Rifles, etc...quality over quantity = more value and more use. Too many guns equal to little use of the ones you already have.

 

[milton]

I've been thinning my herd also and replacing them with quality stuff that I will use. I've been debating moving my glock 19 rtf2 and glock 17 to fund a BCM rifle. So far I haven't had any regret. I used to have a boat load of pistols, but I'm down to 5 or so, and really only shoot one to stay proficient.

 

[tylerr23]

I hate, with emphasis on hate, selling guns. But I did sell 2 so tht I could pick up a quality rifle. I made a bunch in profit so I definitely didn't lose out but I do find myself regretting the sale day in and day out.
