So, I was giving some thought to putting together a MK12 type rifle and started pricing out parts and pieces to get it done. Turns out to put together a very good replica was going to cost a bit more than I am wanting to put out right now. But, while toying around with that idea I thought maybe a varmint type build might be fun so I started pricing out stuff to do that.

Next thing you know, I was checking out some factory rifle prices. Looks like I can get a factory built rifle ready to go for less than I can put one together. Even changing out a few parts and pieces on the new rifle I will still come out ahead versus putting one together myself.

I guess now I have to give some serious thought to wether or not I really want or need one and start doing a little research to see which ones people have had the best luck with.

Decisions, decisions.
