    Mauser dated 1890 @Pawn shop $100 worth it

    like the title says i just saw a mauser dated 1890 can't make out any other markings, looks to be in decent shape given the age, so would it be worth the $100? don't really have much time to debate it since i'm going out of town tomorrow for a week or two, the tag says it's been there since nov...

    New AR. Colt, RRA, PSA, or build

    New AR. Colt, RRA, PSA, or build

    This will be my first personal AR, but being military not new to them. I'm not sure if I should just buy a complete one from Colt, Rock River Arms, Palmetto State Armory, or if I should just build one. I know the Colt is the most expensive, but there is something that appeals to me about owning...
