Yup, and it's just not your pets, I know several people who's had to drop a grand or more in their furry friends lately.
Plus, it's a franken piston AR (sorry, but it kind of is). It just takes a special person to buy a piston AR, and an educated person to know what they're looking at.
Some people think AR means it has to be cheap, and they see no reason to buy a used AR for $900 when they can build a new one for $600 give or take. Quality or parts and some parts not being equal in quality doesn't blip with some people.
Might have better luck selling the upper and lower separately. Or just wait, never know, someone out there might be gathering up funds, trying to sell a couple things they don't really need to fund your AR.
The market is extremely soft right now, and it will get softer in the coming months and through the summer.
Tax returns? Huh? The problem could be just the opposite. I'm sure that a lot of people are still stinging from paying taxes.offers would jump on this with the tax returns coming in. I'm shocked.

If you think the firearms market is bad. Check out how long some houses have been sitting on the market. Add to the fact people are either outright losing their health care, or else are experiencing major benefit reductions at increased prices, and there is little money available for toys these days.
The insurance policy I have on my family went up 30%. $300 a month increase, which is what many have probably also experienced takes a bite out of budgets - saving, building wealth, spending/enjoying.
