...well, it's one that I want to buy. A buddy found two of these FN-15's used for $800/ea. Is this a good deal considering they start at close to $1600?

I am almost ashamed for saying this, but Porter, don't STFU and please do chime in.

Probably about as good as it will ever get again.
Do it now or you'll regret it tomorrow.

That's true. I've never fired this brand, either. Wondering if it is reliable and well built?

A quick Duck-Duck search shows only excellent reviews of FN weapons. Besides, everything is replaceable.

I saw that, but I like to hear directly from people who've used/owned them that can answer questions I have.
either way, I pulled the trigger on it (so to speak) and should have it in hand by this weekend.

I don't think you'll regret that decision. Worse case you can resell it.

Nothing wrong with the price if it works as expected. Not all of them do. The ergo grip and curved trigger guard are a nice touch. Pretty much a must have in my book.
Are you planning to install the fart trigger?:leaving:

Go look on Gunbroker! They are selling for about twice that new like you said! I would think a reasonable price for a good clean one would be around $1100.
So yeah, I would say it's a good deal!:seasix:
FN is well-known for quality arms. How many rounds through it? They should be good for 10's of thousands if treated reasonably well. Might want to take it down and check the BCG when you get it. I like the full length float with pic and MLok. I finally got an AR style rifle a few weeks ago and as soon as the ice clears, I'm planning on a boat trip myself.

I've been looking them up too and seems like this is a deal tantamount to theft.
